Harry Potter The Exhibition brings together artifacts, such as costumes and props, and experiences to create the most comprehensive collection from the expanded Wizarding Universe.
The Harry Potter Experience is a self-guided tour, so give yourself at least 90 minutes (two hours is best) to fully explore the exhibit. For an in-depth experience, you can add an audio guide. It's not required, but it can add to the overall experience and it's only $8.
The exhibit includes the legacy of Harry Potter books and movies, the world of Fantastic Beasts, and the hit Broadway show Harry Potter and the Cursed Child.
Join your fellow wizarding students in the Divination Classroom to see what you can conjure. Here’s a sneak peek at what you can expect, directly from my visit to The Harry Potter Exhibition:
The Harry Potter Exhibition is open seven days a week, and timed tickets are told in 30-minute windows. You can arrive anytime during your 30-minute time, and you can stay in the exhibit as long as you’d like, this just ensures that it doesn’t get too crowded. Tickets start at $29 for adults, or you can upgrade to VIP and receive exclusive perks, including showing up anytime during the day you’ve chosen.
