Accio, Wizards: Harry Potter Audiobooks Arrive on Spotify

Fans of the Harry Potter series have a new way to tune into the chronicles of the Boy Who Lived. Spotify on Wednesday added the complete Harry Potter audiobook series to its platform, including the narrations by Jim Dale and Stephen Fry. 

The audiobooks are available to Premium subscribers in the US, UK, Canada, Ireland, Australia, New Zealand and across Europe. Listeners in North America can tune into Jim Dale’s narration, while subscribers in all markets can access Stephen Fry’s version.

“We are delighted that these books are now available to an even wider audience on Spotify, as we continue to connect readers and fandoms with stories they love, and bring more books to more people,” Duncan Bruce, Spotify’s director of partnerships and licensing, said in a statement.

It’s not just the core Harry Potter books that are making their way to Spotify. Companion titles including The Tales of Beedle the Bard, Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them and Quidditch Through the Ages are also available in select markets. Listeners can also access these Harry Potter titles on Audible, which last year launched a new, full-cast audio edition of the series.   

Spotify added audiobooks for purchase in 2022. It now includes up to 15 hours of audiobook listening with a Premium subscription, which costs $13 a month. A separate Audiobooks Access subscription tier also lets subscribers listen to 15 hours of audiobooks for $10 a month, but it doesn’t include ad-free music.
