Preferred partners: Golden Tours buses offer showings of the first Harry Potter film!

Warner Bros. Studio Tour London - The Making of Harry Potter, provided by Golden Tours, is the most popular tour from Central London to go behind the scenes at the actual studio in Watford where the phenomenally successful Harry Potter films were made.

The studio tour is a walking tour of the huge number of fantastic wizarding sets, you know so well, including the Great Hall, Diagon Alley, Hogwarts Bridge and even the Platform 9 3/4 and the Hogwarts Express train!

 

In addition you will see hundreds of costumes, props and animatronics that bring to life the incredible skill and effort involved in creating the much loved films.

 

In 2019 another new addition has arrived at the Harry Potter themed Studio, also their biggest expansion to date - Gringotts Bank.

You will receive an individual timed entry on arrival at the Warner Bros. Studio for your self-guided tour, including a minimum of 3.5 hours inside the studio. Including your coach journey, the tour duration is normally 7 hours subject to traffic.

Warner Bros. Studio Tour London - what to expect

The tour itself is a walking tour that on average takes around 3 to 3.5 hours.

 

The Making of Harry Potter is not a theme park and as such will not feature rides, or experiences of this nature. The attraction will give visitors the first chance to go behind the scenes of the actual sets of the Harry Potter film series.

 

Only a small part of the Studio Tour is guided so you can take the tour at your own pace. Some parts of the tour are interactive and can be touched, some sections can be viewed and not touched.

 

New for 2019: Gringotts Bank

2019 New Gringotts Bank Expansion

The exhibition features the magnificent banking hall, with crystal chandeliers and the goblin tellers’ desks as we remember them from the films. The detail extends to piles of Galleons, Sickles, and Knuts. You can even marvel at the painstakingly hand-created prosthetic masks of the goblin bankers.

In addition to the banking hall, you’ll also see the Lestrange vault, including the Sword of Gryffindor and Helga Hufflepuff’s Cup, one of Voldemort’s Horcruxes.

The new exhibition is included with the normal entry ticket for The Making of Harry Potter.

 

You can find out about our experience of the new exhibition by reading our blog on the Gringotts Bank expansion.
