A newly innovative Wizarding World exhibition is now under development and is scheduled to make its worldwide debut in 2022.

Imagine Exhibitions announced a partnership with Warner Bros. Consumer Products to create an all-new Harry Potter and Fantastic Beasts exhibition, which is slated to tour in multiple regions around the world including North America, Latin America, Asia-Pacific Region (APAC) and Europe, Middle-East and Africa (EMEA).

The all-new Harry Potter: The Exhibition will be a scalable experience that will have a footprint between 10,000 square feet (929 square meters) up to 20,000 square feet (1,858 square meters).

“We are honored to be entrusted with the iconic Harry Potter brand and excited to develop and share an exhibition experience that celebrates the magic of the Wizarding World,” says Tom Zaller, chief executive officer, Imagine Exhibitions. “We look forward to working with world-class partners, promoters and sponsors to bring an all-new Harry Potter: The Exhibition to fans around the globe.”

The new exhibition will celebrate the most iconic moments of the films and stories of Harry Potter, Fantastic Beasts and the expanded Wizarding World through an immersive, behind-the-scenes exhibition experience. This touring exhibition will present beautifully crafted environments that honor the beloved characters, settings and beasts seen in the films while exploring the filmmaking magic that brought them to life. Visitors will get an up-close look at authentic props and original costumes from the Harry Potter and Fantastic Beasts films as they engage with innovative, awe-inspiring and magical environments and installations.
