I’m going to go over the press release but jump in anytime with comments and reaction Nikki.
MAGICAL CREATURES AND THE MINISTRY AWAIT…
Beyond the ornate portal, guests will first journey from a Muggle park in Paris into the breathtaking spectacle of 1920’s Place Cachée - a hidden, bustling shopping district in wizarding Paris lined with buildings, shops, sidewalk cafés, and historic Parisian domes rising in the distance.
Here, wizards and non-magiques alike will be enamored with the majestic grandeur and enchanting ambiance of the city as they cast dazzling spells throughout the magical streets using interactive wands, encounter fantastic beasts at a traveling circus, and - for the first time ever within The Wizarding World of Harry Potter - travel across countries and time to 1990s London using the Métro-Floo for a thrilling adventure set inside the iconic British Ministry of Magic.
The ride…
Harry Potter and the Battle at the Ministry - Ride type is Thrill, Motion Simulation
Minimum Height requirement is 40” or (102 cm)
With its unique combination of massive environments, powerful storytelling and first-of-its-kind ride technology, Harry Potter and the Battle at the Ministry builds upon the historic theme park innovation Universal is known for - and will be one of its most impressive attractions to date.
The adventure begins when guests travel by Métro-Floo - a unique mode of wizarding transit inspired by the iconic Floo Network seen in the films - to journey from wizarding Paris to the British Ministry of Magic for the long-awaited trial of the infamous Dolores Umbridge.
Upon arrival, guests will enter the Ministry’s jaw-dropping grand atrium and venture through other departments before boarding magical, omnidirectional lifts to watch the trial take place…until Umbridge attempts to escape.
Guests then join Harry, Ron, Hermione and a house-elf named Higgledy in a thrilling chase that will propel them up, down, forward, backward, sideways and more throughout the Ministry as they try to capture Umbridge - all while dodging attacks from Death Eaters, rampaging creatures and more along the way.
The other attraction in this new wizarding world is a show…
Le Cirque Arcanus - For the first time ever in The Wizarding World of Harry Potter, guests will enjoy a live, full-scale theatre experience in the heart of the land. This spectacular show features live performers and aerialists, amazing puppetry, brilliant special effects to take guests on a whirlwind journey where they’ll encounter fantastic beasts like never before. The show follows a Ringmaster who has stolen Newt Scamander’s suitcase - which is full of fantastic beasts - to try and bring the failing circus back to its former glory. It’s then up to circus employee Gwenlyn to rescue these creatures before they end up in Skender’s greedy hands forever.
Of course, this world will offer all new wand spots for you to test your wizardly skill.
As guests explore the streets of wizarding Paris, they can use their interactive wands to create magical experiences as they cast spells at various locations, interact with fantastic beasts such as Nifflers and Bowtruckles and engage with enchanted objects in many of the storefront windows plus other areas throughout the marvelous Place Cachée.
Captivating Entertainment - While exploring the streets of Place Cachée, guests will also encounter other visitors, officials and residents from the wizarding world, including exchange students from the Hogwarts and Ilvermorny Schools of Witchcraft and Wizardry, an French Auror roams the streets inquiring of suspicious characters, talking portraits of delightful wizards who engage with locals about the happenings in Place Cachée, and more.
Guests can also enjoy delicious international fare and shop for souvenirs and merchandise during their visit to The Wizarding World of Harry Potter - Ministry of Magic at highly-themed dining and retail locations.
