Harry Potter experience Riyadh Season 2024
One of the biggest pop culture phenomena of the 2000’s, Harry Potter follows the adventures of an 11-year-old boy named Harry with a lightning scar as he tries to defeat the largest threat to the magical community, Lord Voldemort. Told over seven books and eight movies, the series has become a household name.
The series has been the centerpiece of multiple events in the Kingdom including a live orchestral performance of the film’s score in Riyadh in 2023. It is also a part of Jeddah Season’s Warner Bros’ zone. The magical section has been modeled after Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
Now the iconic story is coming back to Riyadh as a sprawling 25,000-square-metre theme park.
