Epic Universe - Wizarding World of Harry Potter - Ministry of Magic: Harry Potter Filming Location
About This Harry Potter Filming Location
A new land called "Wizarding World of Harry Potter - Ministry of Magic" will debut at Universal Orlando's Epic Universe. Guests enter through a portal in Celestial Park into Place Cachee, a 1920s French wizarding district inspired by the Fantastic Beasts films. This Parisian section will have shops and cafes before transporting visitors to the 1990s British Ministry of Magic for a new attraction, Harry Potter and the Battle at the Ministry. The ride is reported to take guests through a trial of Dolores Umbridge, and the entire area uses portal theming to connect the French and British settings.
