Sneak peak of the Wizarding World of Harry Potter PLUS video!
Have a look behind the scenes at the Wizarding World of Harry Potter attraction at Universal Resorts, Orlando.
Stars from the Harry Potter films have been among the first people to visit the new Wizarding World of Harry Potter attraction at Universal Resorts, Orlando.
Emma Watson, Robbie Coltrane, Matthew Lewis and Oliver and James Phelps were invited on a special tour of the park, weeks before it opens on 18 June.
Based entirely on the films, guests enter the town of Hogsmeade where they can take a trip to Ollivander’s and get their own wand, drink Butterbeer at The Three Broomsticks, experience the Triwizard Tournament on a roller coaster called Dragon Challenge and even post a letter, stamped with a very special Hogsmeade postmark.
The biggest attraction of the park is called Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey, where guests will journey from Hogwarts Castle, through Dumbledore’s office, the Griffindor Common Room and the Defence Against the Dark Arts Classroom. The ride isn’t open yet, but rumours are it’s going to be magical. We can’t wait to try it for ourselves!
