Great experience, really well set up and spaced out, very immersive and atmospheric. Would be great to find the gift shop on the website more easily?

Loved this for the second year running. The interactive bits are a fantastic edition. Having toilets mid way through as well as at the beginning/end is much better. I love the extensions/extras to Hagrid’s scene. My only criticisms would be - please bring back the hologram centaurs as they were so good last year, can Grawps eyes not open? - it would be more fun if he woke up when people ring the bicycle bell and the food/drink/shop village was better last year - bigger, more choice, felt more like a village, much prettier.

We had an absolutely fantastic night, from start to finish it was truly magical. We had my grandson with us who is 5 and he loved it. The staff were so friendly and polite and there was nothing that was to much trouble, from taking photos to having full conversations with the 5 year old. Would highly recommend and will hopefully be back next year.

In short What to expect?

Walk into the depths of a dark forest, rediscover magical creatures, interactive spells, and some of the most iconic moments from the beloved Harry Potter™ film series. Set in beautiful woodland trail, this experience has been brought to life by award-winning theatrical designers and experiential creators.

This is a family experience, but some elements — low-light woodland scenes and spider-themed moments — may feel a little spooky for more sensitive guests. Let staff know on arrival if you have arachnophobia so we can help you avoid spider-themed elements.
