Harry Potter™: The Exhibition Opens in Abu Dhabi for the First Time

On the birthday of The Boy Who Lived, the much-anticipated Harry Potter™: The Exhibition officially opened its doors at Manarat Al Saadiyat in Abu Dhabi, marking its Middle East debut.

Presented in collaboration with Warner Bros. Discovery Global Experiences, Imagine Exhibitions, Eventim Live, and Proactiv Entertainment, and supported by DCT – Abu Dhabi and Miral, the immersive experience will run until September 21, welcoming fans six days a week (closed Tuesdays). 

Through state-of-the-art interactive technology, the exhibition takes visitors on a personalized journey into the Wizarding World, drawing from beloved moments in the Harry Potter and Fantastic Beasts™ films and the Tony® award-winning stage play, Harry Potter and the Cursed Child. Guests can select a Hogwarts house, choose their wand and Patronus, and earn house points in an engaging and magical environment.

“We have something in store for every fan here in Abu Dhabi, and the initial reactions have been amazing,” said Tom Zaller, President & CEO of Imagine Exhibitions.

Nicolas Renna, CEO of Proactiv Entertainment, added, “This is more than an exhibition — it’s a world-class experience that speaks to multiple generations of fans.”

The experience includes authentic props and costumes, photo-friendly recreations of iconic scenes such as the Great Hall, Hagrid’s Hut, and the cupboard under the stairs, along with vignettes from Fantastic Beasts™ and elements from Harry Potter and the Cursed Child. Visitors of all ages are invited to explore moving portraits, classroom sets, and other enchanting spaces, brought to life through immersive storytelling and design.

An exclusive collection of merchandise is also available at the on-site retail shop, including clothing, jewelry, and collectibles unique to the exhibition.
