Be transported (again) into a world of magic and wizardry at the Warner Bros Studio Tour Tokyo – The Making of Harry Potter, which is opening on June 16.
Building on the success of the Warner Bros Studio Tour London, the brand-new studio tour in Japan’s capital city immerses visitors in familiar and beloved sets from the Harry Potter and Fantastic Beasts films to discover what takes place behind the scenes in the remarkable world of film production.
Visitors will get the chance to step foot in iconic sets such as the Great Hall, Diagon Alley and the Hogwarts Express on Platform 9¾, and enjoy exciting activities including riding a broomstick, drinking a refreshing butterbeer, appearing in a portrait by one of Hogwarts’ moving staircases, and shopping for exclusive items that you can only find at the studio tour’s shop.
The studio tour will be the largest indoor Harry Potter attraction in the world and the only Warner Bros Studio Tour to open in Asia. Featuring exclusive sets only available in this location, you can expect to spend around four hours exploring the attraction.
Tickets to the studio tour are available on Klook. It is important to note that all tickets must be pre-booked (either via Klook or other approved booking platforms and Warner Bros Studio Tour partners) and will not be available for purchase on-site.
