Take a closer look at the concept art for the portal, and you might just spot the iconic Elder Wand, a powerful symbol from both film series, hinting at an extraordinary celebration of the interconnected wizarding universe.

“The Wizarding World of Harry Potter – Ministry of Magic” promises to bring the iconic British Ministry of Magic to life, while seamlessly intertwining it with the magical ambiance of 1920s wizarding Paris from the Fantastic Beasts films. Brace yourself for a fully immersive experience that lets you dive headfirst into the heart of the wizarding world!

But that’s not all – Universal Orlando Resort already boasts two spellbinding Harry Potter-themed lands, each featuring beloved attractions like Hogwarts Castle, Diagon Alley, and the Hogwarts Express.

This third expansion will feature several new, sensational rides, including “Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey,” “Flight of the Hippogriff,” “Harry Potter and the Escape from Gringotts,” “The Hogwarts Express,” and “Hagrid’s Magical Creatures Motorbike Adventure.”
