Warner Bros Consumer Products has partnered with Imagine Exhibitions to prepare for a 2022 global launch of the Harry Potter and Fantastic Beasts exhibition, set to tour in North America, Latin America, Asia Pacific, Europe, Middle East and Africa.
Harry Potter: The Exhibition will be a scalable experience covering between 929sqm and 1,858sqm of space, showcasing the magical realm that has spanned seven novels — which have sold more than 500 million copies worldwide — eight Harry Potter films, the stage production of Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, and the first two of the five-part Fantastic Beasts film series.
Potter fans can expect an immersive experience set in environments mimicking iconic moments of the films, and head behind-the-scenes to look at authentic props and original costumes from the Harry Potter and Fantastic Beasts films.
“We are honoured to be entrusted with the iconic Harry Potter brand and excited to develop and share an exhibition experience that celebrates the magic of the Wizarding World,” said Tom Zaller, CEO of Imagine Exhibitions.
"Everyone involved with this project is committed to bringing a masterfully crafted newly innovative Wizarding World experience to fans around the world," said Peter van Roden, senior vice president of Global Themed Entertainment at Warner Bros Consumer Products.
The first venue to kick off the wizarding magic will be announced in coming months.
