ORLANDO, Fla. — Universal Orlando Resort released a first look at the latest installation of Wizarding World—a recreation of the British Ministry of Magic.
The Ministry of Magic will be the set of the new attraction at Harry Potter and the Battle at the Ministry.
Universal said that guests will enter the Ministry through the Métro-Floo Corrido.
They will then emerge into the Ministry of Magic Atrium from a fireplace-like structure.
Harry Potter fans will notice many details from the movies, including Dolores Umbridge's office, complete with Higgledy, Umbridge's former house elf.
The ride is scheduled to open with the new Universal Epic Universe on May 22, 2025.
Brides, families fighting for refunds after event venue closes suddenly
“We’ve struggled so hard to scrape the money to be able to do this for her,” Irizarry said. “She’s my only girl and I wanted this so much for her.”
Couples and families who had weddings and events planned at a well-known venue that abruptly closed claim they’re out thousands of dollars and aren’t being given refunds. Annette Irizarry was supposed to hold her 15-year-old daughter’s quinceañera in August at the Clearwater location and said she’s now out the $6,160 she paid. Without that money, Irizarry said she can’t afford to have her daughter’s celebration somewhere else.
