Los visitantes interactuarán con lecciones y juegos mágicos a través de pantallas táctiles digitales para descubrir secretos entre bastidores sobre momentos icónicos de las aulas. Prepararán pociones en el Aula de Pociones, predecirán el futuro en Adivinación, cultivarán una mandrágora en el Invernadero de Herbología y utilizarán su varita digital para derrotar a un boggart en Defensa contra las Artes Oscuras.

La cabaña de Hagrid y el Bosque Prohibido ofrece una experiencia interactiva con el encantamiento Patronus. Los visitantes descubrirán criaturas emblemáticas, como centauros y acromántulas, escondidas en el bosque y explorarán el interior de una recreación de la cabaña de Hagrid.

Una colección exclusiva de Harry Potter™: La Exposición para que los visitantes celebren su fandom a través de un surtido de colecciones temáticas que abarcan todo el Wizarding World.
