The CEO for Universal parks says their aim was to put visitors smack in the middle of Harry Potter’s world, so they will be immersed in the world that Harry Potter lives in every day in Rowling’s books. It’s just like being in the movies, he says. Author Rowling is very happy and is effusive about the creative teams from Warner Bros. and Universal. They are spot on with all of the wonderful scenery and atmosphere and SFX and rides, various fans have mentioned.
Hogwarts Castle, naturally, is at the center of this attraction. You can see it from everywhere within the Islands of Adventure theme park. Inside the huge building lies Harry Potter & The Forbidden Journey. Immersive SFX and technology will let visitors experience the world of Harry Potter like never before. Guests soar over Hogwarts and then get yanked into an active Quidditch match, escape a dragon match by the skin of their teeth, encounter the Whomping Pillow, plus much more. Universal’s Islands of Adventure theme park is right next to their first one, and easy to visit if you’re there on vacation for a few days.
At Filch’s Emporium of Confiscated Goods visitors may purchase a Marauder’s Map, mail letters at the Owl Post, get a few tips from Hagrid, experience dueling roller coasters, or enjoy a training flight aboard the Flight of the Hippogriff. If visitors book a vacation package and their accommodation is onsite, they will get added benefits inside this outstanding attraction — The Wizarding World of Harry Potter.
