The Wizarding World of Harry Potter

If you haven’t visited The Wizarding World of Harry Potter at Universal Orlando, you’re missing out on one of the most breathtaking attractions ever created. The Wizarding World of Harry Potter opened last June in Islands of Adventure, one of Universal Orlando’s two theme parks. There is a common misconception that it is its own theme park, but it is actually its own separate land inside of a theme park. Don’t let that fool you, one you enter the area, you completely forget you’re in Orlando, let alone a theme park.

The magic of Harry Potter truly comes to life here and it will amaze any Harry Potter fan. You can sip Butterbeer (safe for kids) in the Three Broomsticks, enjoy chocolate frogs from Honeydukes, and even explore the halls of Hogwarts here. The Wizarding World of Harry Potter isn’t just for fans of Harry Potter; the area is just as fun and spectacular for anyone, even those who know nothing about the books or movies.

Universal Orlando celebrated the one-year anniversary of the opening of The Wizarding World of Harry Potter by opening the gates at the exact time as they did on opening day and wizards lined the streets of Hogsmead as guests entered under falling streamers. This area of Islands of Adventure does still get busy during peak visiting times of the year, but crowds are not as insane as they were a year ago. If you were avoiding the crowds by delaying your visit, it’s safe to visit now. The parks may still get busy during times of the year, but they are less than the craziness that happened when the land first opened.

The Wizarding World of Harry Potter is included on the regular admission ticket to Universal's Islands of Adventure. Call toll free 1 - 866 - 882.4720 to speak with a Universal Orlando Vacation Specialist.

Legoland Florida Opens in One Month

In just over a month on October 15, 2011, Legoland Florida will open as the Orlando area’s newest theme park. This entire theme park is themed around Legos and will have over 50 rides, shows and attractions for families to enjoy. Rides range from family-friendly rides to coasters that adults and older kids will enjoy. You can even take a Factory Tour and see hoe Lego bricks are made. Are you a fan of models? Miniland USA inside of the park will have detailed Lego models of areas of the USA such as Florida, Washington, D.C. and New York City. There are even areas of the park where kids of all ages can build their own Lego models and cars.

Legoland will be opening in Winter Haven, which is just about 45 minutes from Orlando theme parks. Not renting a car while you’re in Orlando? Legoland has a shuttle that provides trips to and from Legoland and picks guests up at Orlando Premium Outlets – Vineland Avenue, one of the popular Disney area outlet malls.
