In 2025, Universal Orlando Resort will launch The Wizarding World of Harry Potter - Ministry of Magic, the third and most anticipated Harry Potter-themed area at Universal Epic Universe. Inspired by the magical Paris from the Fantastic Beasts movies and the British Ministry of Magic, this new section will offer a variety of unique experiences, including restaurants, shops, entertainment, and an innovative attraction.

Developed by the award-winning team at Universal Creative and Warner Bros. Discovery Global Themed Entertainment, this themed area builds on the global phenomenon that began in 2010 with Hogsmeade and continued in 2014 with Diagon Alley. Now, entertainment at Universal Orlando will be taken to new heights with the addition of the Ministry of Magic, creating an exciting trilogy of magical adventures.

Magical creatures and the Ministry await...

Upon crossing the ornate portal, visitors will travel from a Muggle park in Paris to the bustling 1920s Place Cachée. In this shopping district, filled with Haussmannian buildings and sidewalk cafes, wizards and Muggles will cast spells with interactive wands, encounter fantastic beasts in a traveling circus, and journey to 1990s London using the Metro-Floo to explore the British Ministry of Magic.
