Golden Tours members will be able to start the day with an exclusive breakfast reception in the iconic Great Hall. Lined with Cheeri-Owls and Pixie Puffs, the Great Hall trestle tables will be specially dressed for breakfast as they were in the magical film series.
As you enjoy a selection of breakfast canapés, fresh pastries, fruit smoothies and bucks fizz, you will be joined in the Great Hall by staff members dressed in full Hogwarts uniforms for a complimentary photograph at the breakfast table.
Dark Arts (October 11th and 12th)
Guests will also be able to enjoy the return of over 100 floating pumpkins in the iconic Great Hall, as seen on screen in Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone. Created by Head Propmaker on all the Harry Potter films, Pierre Bohanna, the pumpkins are modelled on those found in Hagrid’s pumpkin patch in Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban and are hand-carved by the Prop Making Department so no two are alike. The Great Hall tables will also be laden with a Hallowe’en feast of red apples, pumpkins and cauldrons of lollipops.
Hogwarts in the Snow (December 17th and 18th)
Experience the enchanting transformation of Hogwarts at Christmas time as it speckles in glistening white snow with many of the sets including the Gryffindor common room dressed ready for the festivities! You’ll also get to experience the magic of Christmas as you see part of the Great Hall transformed into the Yule Ball.
After breakfast, Golden Tours members are invited to learn wand combat moves in an interactive experience with Wand Choreographer, Paul Harris, before taking part in an exciting live duel with Death Eaters in the Studio Tour’s backlot. Demonstrating how a crowd scene like the Battle of Hogwarts would have been created during filming, visitors will test out their newly learned wand techniques as they are directed through a battle with Death Eaters who are storming the Hogwarts Bridge.
In addition to this, vats of slimy Troll snot, buckets of dribbling drool (of the three-headed dog variety) and pools of silvery unicorn blood will be showcased in the Tour allowing Golden Tours members to get hands-on and see exactly how the slime and goo was created.
Following a complimentary tankard of Butterbeer in the Backlot Café, you will be able to step inside Harry Potter’s childhood home, number four Privet Drive. From there, Golden Tours members will also be able to walk down a darker Diagon Alley as the lights are dimmed and the music becomes more foreboding on the wizarding shopping street.
