The Wizarding World of Harry Potter
Grab your early admission ticket with park-to-park access to enter The Wizarding World of Harry Potter one-hour before the park officially opens. To beat the crowds, start your early morning by riding all the Harry Potter attractions. Don't forget every wizard needs a wand! Next, make a trip to Ollivanders for an interactive experience to see a wand choose its wizard. Then, you can practice your spell casting to create amazing magical experiences throughout Hogsmeade and Diagon Alley. Then, check the park schedule on the Universal Orlando app to view all the daily Harry Potter entertainment throughout the lands. For lunch, make your way to Leaky Cauldron or Three Broomsticks and then grab a butter beer for a refreshing drink. Spend your afternoon experiencing some of the other Universal Studios Florida and Universal's Islands of Adventure attractions before finishing your evening with dinner at one of the Universal resort restaurants.
