One magical exhibition

The magic of “Harry Potter” comes to life in this new exhibition at the Discovery Times Square museum.

You and your little Hogwarts fan can explore more than 200 authentic costumes and props from the popular films, displayed in settings inspired by the sets.

While touring the exhibition space, you can even discover iconic items such as Harry’s original wand and eyeglasses, the Marauder’s Map, Gryffindor school uniforms as well as costumes worn at the Yule Ball. Enter the Quidditch area and toss a quaffle, pull your own mandrake in the herbology vignette, encounter Buckbeak the hippogriff and even a giant Acromantula spider. The only thing missing is Daniel Radcliffe himself!
