How to Have the Ultimate Harry Potter Day at Universal Orlando

The famous pub in the Harry Potter series has come to life at the Wizarding World of Harry Potter in Orlando. The pub serves up classic British fare like fish and chips and bangers and mash. Don't forget to order a butterbeer as well!

The village right outside of Hogwarts Castle is ready for new witches and wizards to explore. In Hogsmede you'll find little shops, butterbeer stands, and the entrance to Hogwarts Castle.

The team members who work near the Hogwarts Express are so fun and stay in character throughout the day. Be sure to ask them what they think of Harry Potter and how to get to Platform 9 3/4.

Inside Gringotts Bank, you'll find one of the newest attractions at Universal Orlando, Harry Potter and the Escape from Gringotts. In the queue you might even see goblins hard at work.

You can catch the Hogwarts Express from Kings Cross Station or from Hogsmede Station. Be sure to travel from both destinations because the experience is different each way.

You can exchange real money for Gringotts Bank notes, which can be used like cash around the Wizarding World of Harry Potter. This is also a great idea for a cheap souvenir.

Flight of the Hippogriff is a family-friendly coaster that takes riders on a fun adventure through the story of Harry Potter. Be sure to watch for Hagrid's hut and a "real-life hippogriff"!

End your perfect day in the Wizarding World of Harry Potter by watching the castle projection show, Nighttime Lights at Hogwarts Castle. Try to get there a little early for a good spot.
