Tickets for the exhibition in Utrecht go on sale this Friday, September 16 at 10am on www.harrypotterexpo.nl.
In partnership with Warner Bros. Consumer Products, GES created the 1,400-square-meter experiential exhibition,where visitors can enjoy dramatic displays inspired by the Harry Potter film sets and see the amazing craftsmanship behind authentic costumes, props and creatures from the films. MOJO is partnering with GES to present the exhibition in Utrecht.
“We are thrilled to bring this extraordinary exhibition to Utrecht.” said Frederik van Alkemade, promoter special events of MOJO, “Fans will be able to get closer than ever to the wizarding world right here in The Netherlands.Harry Potter: The Exhibition is a must-see for all ages.”
“We are delighted to partner with Mojo to bring the magic of Harry Potter to The Netherlands,” said Eddie Newquist, chief creative officer for GES. “Harry Potter: The Exhibition has welcomed millions of guests from cities all over the world during its tour, and continues to amaze fans with its thousands of props and costumes.”
From the moment guests enter Harry Potter: The Exhibition they are immediately immersed in the world of Harry Potter. Guests are greeted by an exhibit host who sorts several lucky fans into their favorite HogwartsTM houses, then leads them inside the exhibition where their journey to favorite scenes from the Harry Potter films begins. The exhibition features settings from the films’ most popular locations—including the GryffindorTM common room and dormitory; classrooms like Potions and Herbology; and the Forbidden Forest—which are filled with thousands of authentic props, costumes, and creatures used in the filming of the iconic series.
In addition to the beautiful environments and displays, there are several interactive elements. Guests can enter the QuidditchTM area and toss a Quaffle ball, pull their own Mandrake in the Herbology classroom vignette, and even tour a re-creation of Hagrid’s hut and sit in his giant-sized armchair.
