Wizarding World of Harry Potter Opens This Week
It’s a big week here in Orlando as The Wizarding World of Harry Potter officially opens on Friday. The soft opening has gone well and from all reports,the new section of Universal’s Islands of Adventure theme park is a fabulous enhancement to Central Florida’s world famous attractions.
Nothing official has been announced by Universal, but rumors are spreading that some of the stars from the Harry Potter film series will be at the grand opening next Friday. In mid-May, Potter stars Robbie Coltrane (Hagrid), Matthew Lewis (Neville Longbottom), Emma Watson (Hermione Granger), and Oliver and James Phelps (Fred and George Weasley) visited The Wizarding World and it’s rumored that one or two may well return for the official opening.
There’s currently many rumors flying around and the biggest one is that Harry Potter himself, Daniel Radcliffe and James and Oliver Phelps are coming. It is also rumored that John Williams, the composer of the films, will be at the grand opening with a full choir and orchestra.
The media events begin on Wednesday and run through Friday. Some of the events, like the grand opening Friday morning, will be open to the public, while other events during the three days may remain private. It’s possible some celebrities could be at one event and not others. Major media from all over the world are expected to attend and NBC’s Today Show will be broadcasting live Friday morning.
