Fans can immerse themselves in the wizarding world at Warner Bros. World Abu Dhabi.

Potterheads, unite. Muggles, look away. Miral and Warner Bros. Discovery have announced that a Harry Potter themed land is coming to Yas Island, Abu Dhabi. This is the first attraction of its kind in the Middle East, and it will be located in the world’s largest indoor theme park, Warner Bros. World Abu Dhabi.

The Harry Potter themed land will join the existing six Immersive Lands in Warner Bros. World Abu Dhabi. Potter fans will have the chance to step inside iconic locations from the wizarding world, all in a new and exciting way. The opening date has not yet been announced, but we expect it to be a must-visit, family-friendly attraction featuring three new rides.

The character who sleeps in the cupboard under the stairs has become a global phenomenon. Harry Potter spans eight films and is based on the best-selling book series, which has sold over 600 million copies worldwide, been distributed in more than 200 territories and translated into over 80 languages.

HE Mohamed Khalifa Al Mubarak, Chairman of Miral, explains: “We are very proud of our continuous partnership with Warner Bros. Discovery and excited to be bringing this spell binding first to the Middle East and the world in the future. This is yet another testament to our commitment to continue to position Yas Island as a top global destination for entertainment and leisure, and a great addition to Abu Dhabi’s tourism offerings, contributing to the growth and economic diversification of the Emirate.”

Pam Lifford, President, Global Brands and Experiences from Warner Bros. Discovery, adds: “The Wizarding World offers something for fans of every age to enjoy. The original Harry Potter stories and the blockbuster film series continue to captivate and inspire hundreds of millions of fans around the world, and our Global Themed Entertainment team together with our world-class partner Miral, will expand our successful Warner Bros. World Abu Dhabi to bring this magical experience to life.”

The project will be the world’s sixth Harry Potter-themed park. The others are in Beijing in China, California and Florida in the US, Leavesden in the United Kingdom, and Osaka in Japan. The Harry Potter attraction isn’t the only exciting addition to Yas Island. The Walt Disney Company has also announced plans to open a Disney theme park in Abu Dhabi.

 Sounds like a magical day out.
