Embark on a journey this Dubai Shopping Festival through the brand-new Harry Potter – Celebrate Hogwarts experience at Mall of the Emirates.
Available until Thursday, 10 February 2022, visitors will have the chance to explore large-scale installations inspired by some of the most well-known wizarding world locations from the blockbuster Harry Potter films.
Upon entering the Celebrate Hogwarts experience at Mall of the Emirates, fans will be able to get up close with a recreation of the Hogwarts Express train and try their hand at the Quaffle Toss to see how many points they can score into the hoops. Visitors will also be treated to incredible sights by exploring a vignette inspired by the Forbidden Forest, where they can create photo moments with a selection of magical creatures hidden in the trees.
Don’t forget to dress up to celebrate your love for the Wizarding World, as there will also be a Trivia Quiz competition held every weekend for true Potterheads.
Michelle Walsh, Senior Director Marketing and Communications at Majid al Futtaim Shopping Malls said: “As 2021 marked the 20th anniversary of the first film in the Harry Potter series, we wanted to celebrate this special occasion with a Middle East first, only at Mall of the Emirates. Our latest innovative activation, in partnership with Warner Bros. Themed Entertainment builds on our commitment to creating one-of-a-kind experiences at unmatched value for residents and tourists alike. We’re thrilled to be able to continue enhancing our retail and entertainment offering this Dubai Shopping Festival and bring families and Wizarding World fans together to create memorable moments that they can cherish.”
In the years since Harry Potter was whisked from King’s Cross Station onto Platform nine and three quarters, his incredible adventures have left a unique and lasting mark on popular culture. Eight blockbuster films based on the original stories by J.K. Rowling have brought the magical stories to life and a Harry Potter 20th Anniversary: Return to Hogwarts special is currently streaming exclusively on OSN.
The Celebrate Hogwarts experience is open daily from 12pm to 10pm until 10 February 2022.
