Uncover the magic behind the special effects and explore the behind-the-scenes secrets of the Harry Potter films with this spellbinding Warner Brother Studio tour of The Making of Harry Potter. Walk the original stone floor of the Hogwarts Great Hall, visit Dumbledore's office, wander down Diagon Alley, see the model of Hogwarts Castle and taste the legendary ButterbeerTM. This is the ultimate adventure for any fan of the young wizard.
All eight movies were produced at the Studios and you will be able to relive the magic through the eyes of the filmmakers who brought Harry Potter to life. See the Backlot, where the Knight Bus and Hagrid’s motorbike are. Take a lesson in the Potion’s Classroom, visit the Weasel family in The Burrow and ride a broom in front of the Green Screen.
In the Art Department, admire the detailed sketches that were used during pre-production and learn how pencil drawings were turned into beautiful paintings with a digital brush, while the Model Room will bowl you over. See the sensational scale model of Hogwarts Castle - the level of detail is breathtaking. Real plants are used for landscaping as well as miniature birds housed in the Owlery, and with more than 2,500 fibre optic lights that simulate lanterns and torches, you’ll be flabbergasted.
