HBP will be strong in UK.

The Guardian reported that U.K cinema profits from 2007 went up 7.7%. Which is a record £904.9 million. According to The Guardian this is due to films like 'Harry Potter' and the bad weather!

The article said:
A large chunk of those takings were in the summer, with July the best month on record for cinemagoing in four decades.

The FDA attributes the success to a strong line-up of films, including Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix and Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End. On top of that came the rising popularity of foreign films such as the The Lives of Others, the Oscar-winning drama about the Stasi spies in East Berlin.

Also, Half Blood Prince is anticipated to be just as strong.
