Potter Mania


If you or any member of your family is a fan of the Harry Potter movies, you owe yourself to a visit to the Warner Brothers Studios (J & K) to enter the movie magic of Hogwarts.

The sets are preserved as are the costumes, and with only two exceptions, you are invited to take as many pictures as you want without a flash.

Visit the Great Hall and see how they filmed Quiddich matches before having yourself filmed riding a broom. Have some Butter Beer (very sweet, but delicious) as you cross the Hogwarts Bridge and visit Privet Lane. 

See a not-so-small scale model of the School and stroll down Diagon Alley as a guide tells you about wand-craft, from a special effects point of view.

If you saw it in the movie, you can buy a copy in the gift store – everything from Mad-Eye Moody’s staff, to edible chocolate wands, to Hogwarts school uniforms in all four houses (complete with ties), wizard gowns, books, movies, key chains, and Nimbus 200 brooms.

This attraction is suitable for all members of the family and at £29 per adult and £21.50 for children, with discounted family rates it is well worth the cost to any fan.


NB: Tickets CAN NOT be bought at the studio – you need to pre-purchase them on line either on their website or through a tour company.
