Emma Watson gets an exclusive first look at The Wizarding World of Harry Potter in Orlando!

Yesterday, Emma Watson, known for her role as Hermione Granger in the popular Harry Potter film series, was given a special preview of The Wizarding World of Harry Potter in Orlando. Although the park is not set to open until June 18, Emma was certainly not turned away from the gates of the 20-acre theme park, as no Muggle (meaning non-magical folk like ourselves) would ever reject Harry Potter’s closest companion. Even those who are not die-hard fans of the series (if there are any) can sense Emma’s excitement as she beams with joy like a schoolgirl who just received her wand from Ollivander’s wand shop – a crucial step for young witches and wizards embarking on their first year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.

Get ready Muggles, the grand opening of the Wizarding World of Harry Potter is happening on June 18th and we’re already planning to take the day off! This theme park is a dream come true for fans of JK Rowling’s beloved series, with plenty of magical experiences to enjoy. Quench your thirst with a foaming tankard of butterbeer at the Hog’s Head pub or indulge your sweet tooth with chocolate frogs from Honey Dukes. You can even take a ride on the iconic Hogwarts Express steam train. For those seeking an adrenaline rush, the Dragon Challenge high-speed rollercoaster is a must-try. With so much to explore, this is the perfect destination for any Harry Potter enthusiast. *By Emily Garnham
