Universal Studios Hollywood - Wizarding World of Harry Potter: Harry Potter Filming Location
About This Harry Potter Filming Location
The Hollywood park features a Hogsmeade-focused land similar to Orlando's. Its headliner is Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey (a 4K, motion-based dark ride through Hogwarts) and the family coaster Flight of the Hippogriff. An Ollivanders wand show lets guests experience a wand selection, and live entertainment includes the Frog Choir and Triwizard Spirit Rally. Interactive wands trigger spells around the village, and shops/dining include Three Broomsticks, Hog's Head Pub, Honeydukes, Wiseacre's Wizarding Equipment, Dervish and Banges, Zonko's and the Owl Post.
