Hogwarts In The Snow at Warner Bros. Studio Tour London

The first snowflakes of winter have fallen at Warner Bros. Studio Tour London and you’re invited to enter the world of Harry Potter this festive season. The Studio Tour’s Christmas makeover has definitely got that touch of sparkle —book now to discover it for yourself!

Christmas Decorations and Costumes in the Great Hall

The Great Hall, Gryffindor Common Room & Creamy Butterbeer

A huge, snow-flecked Christmas tree greets visitors upon entering the Studio Tour, creating the illusion of a perfect wintry scene. Portraits of your favourite characters line the walls, from sinister looking Voldemort to a fresh-faced, smiling Harry.

Begin your tour in the magnificent Great Hall, where a Christmas feast lines the tables. It really feels like you are about to tuck into a Hogwarts Christmas dinner. Spectacular silver decorations, dripping icicles and traditional yuletide decorations adorn this amazing set. You’ll also spot your favourite characters dressed for the famous Yule Ball scene in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. Look out for the wintery orchestra arrangement too!

The tour continues, and other sets to see include Dumbledore’s office, Snape’s potions classroom and the Gryffindor common room — adorned with red and gold ornaments. You can stand outside Harry’s house on Privet Drive and hop on Hagrid’s Bike or the Knight Bus. Stop for a cup of sweet Butterbeer™ — it tastes quite nice!

The Hogwarts Castle Model

The breathtaking Hogwarts Castle Model is a definite highlight of the tour, and for a limited time only a blanket of snow covers it. This hand sculpted model was used for the films’ aerial photography, and you can get amazing 360 degree views of the model’s beautifully intricate detail.

The tour also gives visitors the opportunity to stroll through Diagon Alley and enter the Forbidden Forest.

Filmmaking Secrets

As if the sparkling snow and festive sets weren’t enough, you’ll get hands on experience of filmmaking ice, snow and fire. What’s more, learn how special effect flames are created without using real fire! Ride a broom using green screen technology, check out fascinating creature effects and amazing models in the art department – there really is a surprise around every corner. It’s every Potterhead’s dream!
