Prepare Your Wands: Harry Potter Theme Park Is Coming to Abu Dhabi!🪄

Why this will be one of the most spellbinding attractions in the Middle East
Whether you’re a lifelong Potterhead or someone who loves immersive experiences, there’s huge excitement brewing in Abu Dhabi. The city is already home to incredible theme parks like Ferrari World, Warner Bros. World, and Yas Waterworld — and soon it will welcome something truly magical: a Harry Potter-themed land unlike anything the region has ever seen.
🧙♂️ A New World of Wizardry on Yas Island
The upcoming Harry Potter theme park experience will be part of Warner Bros. World Abu Dhabi, the world’s largest fully indoor theme park. Located on Yas Island, this new land will join the park’s six existing themed areas that already celebrate beloved characters like Batman, Scooby-Doo, and the Flintstones.
What makes this announcement so exciting is that it brings the Wizarding World officially to Abu Dhabi for the first time — and for the first time outside the major Universal parks — putting magic literally on your doorstep.
🧹 What to Expect: Rides, Magic & Immersive Worlds
While details are still being revealed, what we do know is already enough to make fans start packing:
🎢 Three All-New Magical Rides
The new Harry Potter area is planned to feature three original rides, designed just for this park — exclusives that can’t be found anywhere else, since this version is being built independently of Universal’s Wizarding World.
🏰 Iconic Environments Come to Life
Imagine stepping into familiar and beloved locations such as:
- Hogwarts Castle
- Diagon Alley
- Hogsmeade Village
- The Forbidden Forest
Each area promises not just sights, but stories — with richly themed surroundings, interactive experiences, and photo-perfect moments that make fans feel like they’re truly inside the story.
🧙 Unique Shops, Food & Magical Details
No Wizarding World is complete without:
- Butterbeer and themed treats
- Wand shops with interactive magic experiences
- House scarves, robes, and exclusive collectibles
Expect plenty of themed dining and sweet spots — places that are as much part of the story as the rides themselves (and the perfect reason to stay a little longer!).
