Want to have a little fun while visiting The Wizarding World of Harry Potter? Then have fun with this Scavenger Hunt just for the Harry Potter fans! The “hunt” will lead you on a magical adventure throughout The Wizarding World of Harry Potter located in both Universal Studios Florida and Universal’s Islands of Adventure theme parks.
Download and print out this page listed HERE and bring it with you to Universal Orlando Resort.
Just a few notes from Universal Orlando about the “hunt!”
- All eight clues highlight different experiences from A Celebration of Harry Potter.
- Make your way to each location and share your photos with #HPCelebration.
- Be sure to include yourself and/or your group in the photos.
- Remember, using the Floo Network to get from place to place is cheating.
Universal Orlando is also planning on live streaming parts of the event, so if you’re like me and can’t make it you can still be a part of the events!
Get to experience live coverage of three panels during “A Celebration of Harry Potter” this weekend. In order to view the coverage you’ll need to head on over to the Universal Orlando Blog during these times. They are also doing a live Periscope of the Sunday movie prop design panel which is the only I’m most excited about!
- Friday @ 7:30 PM EST — Opening Night Event
See all the film stars on stage together. And get introduced to all the incredible guests who will be a part of this weekend’s activities. - Saturday @ 6:45 PM EST — Harry Potter Film Tribute
The celebration continues with a special evening event featuring a Q&A session with select Harry Potter film talent. - Sunday @ 1 PM EST — Bringing the Harry Potter Films to The Wizarding World of Harry Potter
Learn from the experts how prop design ideas move from the silver screen to becoming real life theme park experiences.
