SnitchSeeker.com - Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire Illustrated Edition set for release this October

Bloomsbury Publishing revealed the official release date for the Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire Illustrated Edition, with art by Jim Kay.

The fourth installment in J.K. Rowling's saga will hit bookshops and online starting October 8, 2019 in the UK, and presumably the same date (or around that time) around the world, including in the U.S. The cover has yet to be released, though Kay - who began work on the title in September 2017 - released a few drawings on his blog.

While fans wait until the fall release, those in the UK can enjoy the annual Harry Potter Book Night Thursday 7th February 2019, where bookstores, libraries, schools and more will celebrate the series with games, readings, and more.
