I am standing at the gateway to one of the most highly anticipated theme park expansion openings in recent history! Come with me and get your first look at The Wizarding World of Harry Potter at Universal Studios Hollywood!
The official opening is set for April 7th, 2016, but Universal Studios Hollywood is deep in what they call "technical rehearsals". This gives the theme park a great opportunity to work out the kinks of the entire land operation from shops to restaurants to attractions. A "technical rehearsal" is not guaranteed but it has been happening just about every day now.
The Hogwarts Express is the first thing that greets you! Steam coming out of the stack lets you know that the train has just pulled into the station.
The details pull you right into Hogsmeade and you will run into many of the townspeople who are as friendly as can be!
