On the 1st September every year Harry Potter fans gather together at King's Cross station to celebrate the day when all the new students board the Hogwarts Express to begin their new school year.
It usually attracts thousands of Harry Potter fans from all around the world, most of whom will turn up in costume outside the Harry Potter shop in the station's main hall, where there's a pile of suitcases disappearing through the wall at Platform 9 3/4.
The Hogwarts Express is usually displayed on the departure board at 11 AM, when you can expect a big sing-song of the movie theme tune.
