In partnership with Warner Bros.

Brussels Expo will be the exhibition's fourth stop in Europe following Paris, France, Cologne, Germany and Norrköping, Sweden. Since its highly successful premiere at the Museum of Science and Industry in Chicago in 2009, the exhibition has been presented in a variety of major cultural and entertainment institutions and museums in cities around the world including Boston, Toronto, Seattle, New York City, Sydney, Singapore, Tokyo, and Shanghai, and has been seen by more than 3.5 million visitors worldwide. Earlier this year, WBCP and GES announced the extension of the global tour with additional stops through spring 2020.
"Harry Potter: The Exhibition has thrilled audiences all over the world and we are delighted by the excitement it has generated in Brussels," said GES President, Steve Moster. "We are excited to bring the fans in Belgium a chance to experience the world of Harry Potter first-hand."
