Best Answer

To compete in the Triwizard Tournament for Hogwarts (in Harry's fourth year) you must be 17 years old (due to safety issues in the past) Dumbledore drew an age line around the Goblet of fire to insure that no students that were younger that 17 would add their names, if you are to young and you add your name you will grow a long white beard.

Who gets the triwizard tournament prize money in Harry Potter?

Harry does, he is after all the only surviving winner. Fudge gives it to him in the hospital wing. Harry tries to give it to the Diggorys but they refuse to take it. Eventually Harry forces the Weasley twins to take it so they can finally start their joke shop business.


What is the name of the tournament in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire?

The Triwizard Tournament involves the three major schools: Hogwarts, Durmstrang Institute and Beauxbatons Academy. The schools take it in turns to host the tournament, in the Goblet of fire Hogwarts was the host. Each school brings a selection of students to the host's school based on different traits, eg: bravery, knowledge, logic. The students put their names in the goblet of fire which will choose one student per school to compete. The ministry of magic decided that the tournament had in the past resulted in too many deaths and that an age restriction should be placed as under 17's had not learned enough magic. Barty Crouch Junior, working under cover for Voldemort placed Harry's name in the goblet under another school and fooled the goblet into thinking that four schools were competing so that Harry was the only one in his category.


What was the age limit of the Triwizard Tournament in the Goblet of Fire?

You had to be 17 years old on October 31, 1994 at latest to be able to cross Albus Dumbledore's Age Line and enter your name into the Goblet of Fire, so you had to be born in October 1977 or earlier. As for what year at Hogwarts you had to be, you had to be in your seventh year. You could also be in your sixth year, but you should have had an early seventeenth birthday before November 1, 1994 (as in the case of Angelina Johnson).

Um, no... He only played in school. He played every year except his seventh, fourth, and part of his fifth, due to You-Know-Who taking over, the Triwizard Tournament, and punishment from Umbridge, respectively. So in total, Harry played Quidditch for about four and a half years.

What is Harry's best part in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire?

Either summoning the Firebolt and spectacularly collecting his egg from the dragon or saving both Ron and Fleur's sister in the second task. Harry was the underdog in the Triwizard Tournament, and nobody expected him to perform well. So it was a surprise when he was the fastest to collect his egg and when he tied for first place.

in the 4th book, she goes to a wizarding school and was allowed in the triwizard tournament, so at that time she was 17 or 18 add 3 years to the deathly hallows and that makes 20-21 which if you were wondering about young marriage is a suitable age to get married in Britain especially when you know that at any moment voldemort could kill you at any moment.
