Get your wand ready, it’s time to travel through time and discover all the splendid details of this dream come true. Let’s begin!
1. Place Cachée: The Magical Paris of the 1920s.
A hidden corner inspired by ‘Fantastic Beasts‘.
Pass beneath the Phoenix Arch and enter Place Cachée, a secret side of 1920s Paris designed for witches and wizards.
Wander through lively cobblestone streets lined with shops and cafés inspired by the ‘Fantastic Beasts‘ franchise. Stop in front of one of the shops and you might overhear the shopkeeper chatting with their customers, or even whispering a juicy bit of gossip. Every detail is designed to make you feel like just another witch or wizard in the magical world.
The Show: Le Cirque Arcanus.
Don’t miss Le Cirque Arcanus, an extraordinary spectacle of magical creatures from around the world. The enigmatic ringmaster, Skender, is determined to restore the circus to its former glory after acquiring the famous suitcase belonging to Newt Scamander.
This fully immersive show combines live performers, puppetry, and special effects, bringing to life creatures like Demiguises, Zouwus, Mooncalves, Kelpies, and even Scamander himself. Keep an eye out for Gwenlyn, a brand-new character and and assistant with no magical powers.
This is the first fully immersive theatrical experience in the Wizarding World, and also the most technically ambitious to date!
Magical encounters around every corner.
You’ll be able to meet witches and wizards on the streets. Plus, for the first time, inanimate objects will come to life. You might even strike up a conversation with a talking portrait and get a response that’s uniquely yours!
2. The British Ministry of Magic.
Travel from Paris to London.
Through the Métro-Floo in Paris, you’ll be transported to 1990s London. A grand lobby will welcome you, letting you know that your magical journey has been a success!
Until now, Muggles have explored places like Hogwarts Castle, Diagon Alley, or Platform 9¾. And even visited the film studios in Leavesden. But the Ministry of Magic remained a mystery… until now!
A line that is an experience on its own
While waiting, you’ll meander through different departments and offices within the Ministry, each one familiar to fans of the saga!
The magical adventure.
After the Battle of Hogwarts, peace has been restored at the Ministry. Lord Voldemort’s followers are being judged for their crimes. One of the accused is none other than Dolores Umbridge, and the day of her trial has arrived.
You take an elevator to the courtroom where Harry, Ron, and Hermione are waiting along Higgledy, a former house-elf of Umbridge. But just as things seem to settle, Umbridge escapes with the help of Death Eaters Yaxley, Carrow, and Macnair. Her goal? To repair a broken Time-Turner and restore Voldemort’s reign!
