The Australian city of Perth held the previous record from 2017, with 997 participants in the competition.
Among those present were a large number of children and teenagers.
Harry Potter “has always fascinated me, this whole wizarding world,” said 16-year-old Isabelle Zichting, who didn’t want to miss the event.
The invitation to the “Harry Potter” gathering came as part of a day celebrating the publication of the first German-language volume of the successful literary series by Hamburg’s Carlsen Verlag 25 years ago.
