1. The Cupboard Under the Stairs<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

This is where the story of Harry Potter all begins, and this is also one of the first things to see on the tour. The tiny room where Harry stayed with the Dursleys is filled with treasures from his life before Hogwarts. There\u2019s even a pair of Harry\u2019s spectacles on display.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. The Great Hall<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The scale of this room is just breathtaking and it’s definitely one of the most iconic sets from the film series. Enter to see the incredible costumes from the films<\/span> and wigs worn by prominent members of the cast. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Explore Dumbledore’s Office<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Packed to the rafters with books, documents and trinkets used by the much-loved headmaster of Hogwarts, Dumbledore’s office is a must-see. Get a closer look at the portraits of previous headmasters, spot the sorting hat and have a look at the Pensieve, the magical device where Dumbledore looked at his memories.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n

Another exciting element is the chance to learn wand moves from an expert. Feel like a true wizard and practice before taking your O.W.L. (<\/span>Ordinary Wizarding Level).<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

6. The Hogwarts Express<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Famed for transporting hundreds of students to Hogwarts, the original\u00a0<\/span>Hogwarts Express\u00a0sits in the studios, with the inside of the carriages painstakingly recreated. See each carriage, themed around a different movie and stand on Platform 9 \u00be.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n

Wearing official Hogwarts uniform, climb aboard a Nimbus 2000 and fly above the Hogwarts Express with the help of incredible green-screen technology! As you swoop and soar, photographs of your flight will be taken and available to purchase afterwards.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

8. Try Butterbeer<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Once you reach the Backlot Caf\u00e9, kick back and relax with the famous frothy drink from the film series, Butterbeer\u2122.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the 14<\/span>th<\/sup> October, there will be a special appearance from some of Voldemort\u2019s loyal followers \u2013 the Death Eaters. When you enter Diagon Alley, you\u2019ll meet the supporters of the Dark Arts \u2013 a once-in-a-lifetime experience!<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n

10. Find all the Golden Snitches<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

11. Remember it all with a Signed Guide Book<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

After you\u2019ve explored the entire exhibit and seen all the special features and events, each booking receives a souvenir guidebook signed by the special effect supervisor on all eight movies, John Richardson \u2013 the perfect way to remember a magical evening.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
