UPDATE: Video of the festivities added, which includes a few bits from Ellie and Ryan.

As we reported last week, two of our MuggleNet friends, Ellie Darcey-Alden and Ryan Turner – who portrayed Young Lily Evans and Hugo Weasley in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 2 – were in Leighton Buzzard this past weekend for the town’s Christmas Festival 2012.

Ellie and Ryan, pictured above, kicked off the festivities of the weekend with an explosive start by officially lighting the town’s Christmas Lights, which were followed by a fireworks display.

Additionally, Ellie and Ryan have been gracious enough to donate a couple of prizes for our 2nd Annual MuggleNet Holiday Giveaway event this year. Be sure to play every day and perhaps you will win one of these two stars very special prizes.
