The exhibition dedicated to the world of magic is a huge success, and recently celebrated its 500,000th visitor. Currently on show at the Parc des Expositions, the organizers have pulled out all the stops for fans of the world's most famous wizard, and the food court is not going to deter us: from invigorating potions renowned under different names to pies and delicacies bearing the effigy of the scarred wizard, it's a treat for the taste buds and the eyes! In keeping with J.K. ROWLING's magical universe, both in the staging and the animations, the exhibition is an interactive immersion in this world where Muggles also have their place.
From the moment they enter, visitors are invited to honor their house, and throughout the exhibition, they are called upon to take on magical challenges for the enjoyment of young and old alike.
The exhibition offers a real showcase for Harry Potter and the characters of the 7 volumes released, but also makes a clever nod to The Cursed Child, the play set a few years after the Battle of Hogwarts and the fall of he-whose-name-you-shall-not-take, as well as Fantastic Beats, whose hero Norbert Dragonneau and his fantastic animals are encountered along the way. For the more discerning visitor, every visit to a room is a real treat: from preparing potions to playing Quidditch or practicing fortune-telling, every visitor is entitled to a day at Hogwarts. A visit to Hagrid's cabin or the Ministry of Magic is also a must, as is, of course, Harry Potter's famous room under the stairs at 4 Private Drive.
Fans of dragons, felix felicis and golden snakes, it's still not too late to visit this beautiful exhibition, which closes on October 15
