Tom Zaller, President and CEO Imagine Exhibitions: “We have something very special here in Munich and I am absolutely thrilled that people in Germany have the chance to experience this exhibition for the first time! Visitors will be able to see original props and costumes, enjoy some of their favorite scenes from the films, have their picture taken, and earn points for their Hogwarts house by participating in interactive activities in the different rooms. I highly recommend that everyone buy their tickets in advance for this incredible experience, as they are selling out fast!”

Dieter Semmelmann, CEO Semmel Concerts GmbH: “We are absolutely thrilled to have the opportunity to present this one-of-a-kind exhibition here in Munich – it’s the German premiere! We couldn’t be happier to have partnered with Imagine Exhibitions and Warner Bros. Discovery Global Themed Entertainment, who have been wonderful and trustworthy.”

Upon entry, everyone is given an exhibition wristband for a personalized experience using best-in-class immersive design and technology. From selecting a Hogwarts house (either Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw, or Slytherin) to picking your wand and Patronus, visitors will be able to create their own uniquely magical moments while earning points for their house with each interactive activity. 

Throughout the exhibition, visitors will experience everything from the Portrait Hallway and the famed scenes of the Great Hall with floating candles, to exploring Hogwarts classrooms and tossing a Quaffle at the Quidditch pitch. Hagrid’s Hut featuring an oversized chair is perfect for photo opps, as is the “Cupboard Under the Stairs” from Harry’s childhood home on Privet Drive. In addition, vignettes from Les bêtes fantastiques et les costumes de la production de Broadway, récompensée par un Tony®. de Harry Potter et l'enfant maudit sont incluses dans l'exposition, ce qui fait de Harry Potter : L'exposition the most in-depth touring exhibition looking at the entire world and extended universe of Harry Potter, perfect for both longtime fans and those new to experiencing the magic. 

The record-breaking exhibition created and developed by Warner Bros. Discovery Global Themed Entertainment in partnership with Imagine Exhibitions and Eventim Live is conveniently located at Kleine Olympiahalle in Munich. Following its premiere in Philadelphia in 2022, more than 2 million visitors around the world have enjoyed this captivating exhibition.
