The meal itself will include items such as smoked duck, pumpkin purée, blood orange jelly, goat cheese ravioli and roast lamb. The tables will also be full with a feast of red apples, pumpkins and cauldrons of lollipops.

For desert (if you’re not totally stuffed from that Great Hall experience), fans will be treated to pumpkin brulée and dark chocolate mousse in the newly opened Forbidden Forest. While there, they will interact with a variety of creatures including Buckbeak the Hippogriff and Aragog the Acromantula.

As if that’s not enough, Death Eaters will be roaming the grounds dressed in the original costumes from the films.

There is also an option to meet member of the prop making department from the film who are willing to spill secrets behind that ceiling full of pumpkins. Attendees can also learn wand combat moves from a wand choreographer.
