Which J.K. Rowling novel is set around the Triwizard Tournament?

Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire is the J.K. Rowling novel centered on the Triwizard Tournament.

Published in 2000, the fourth Harry Potter book brings together three wizarding schools for a dangerous competition. Hogwarts hosts the tournament, with champions selected for three tasks involving a dragon, an underwater rescue, and a maze. Harry is unexpectedly chosen as an additional champion despite being under the required age.

The novel marks a major shift in the series. The magical school setting remains important, but the story becomes more international and politically tense. The tournament’s final task leads Harry to a graveyard, where Lord Voldemort regains a physical body and the wider conflict returns openly.

The Goblet of Fire is also notable for introducing the Quidditch World Cup as a major event and for expanding the role of the Ministry of Magic. Its film adaptation was released in 2005.
