I suspect:

a) JKR wanted to be sensitive to the second anniversary of the July
7th bombings in London.
b) the end of the school term is usually around July 21st.
c) the film opening on July 13th will start the build up to July 21st,
instead of being upstaged by an earlier publication date.

Exciting though... isn't it? (To think she's finished, I mean! I'd
resigned myself to wait for October.)
