Harry Potter: The Exhibition Set to Enchant Dallas in 2025

A touch of magic is heading to North Texas as Harry Potter: The Exhibition makes its way to Dallas, debuting on October 24, 2025, at Pepper Square.

Presented by Warner Bros. Discovery Global Experiences, Imagine, and Eventim Live, this comprehensive touring exhibition brings the enchanting world of Harry Potter and Fantastic Beasts to life.

Having captivated over 4 million fans globally, the exhibition promises to offer a behind-the-scenes look at the beloved films as well as the broader Wizarding World that includes Harry Potter and the Cursed Child.

Designed as more than just a walk-through exhibit, Harry Potter: The Exhibition immerses fans into iconic settings, providing the chance to interact with authentic props, original costumes, and magical creatures.

The experience is further personalized; visitors are invited to select their Hogwarts house during pre-registration, where their names will even appear on the Marauder’s Map in the Hogwarts Castle Gallery.

Tom Zaller, president and CEO of Imagine, expressed excitement about the exhibition’s arrival in Dallas.

“This exhibition celebrates the extended world of Harry Potter like no other touring exhibition has done before,” he stated.

He emphasized North Texas’s family-friendly environment and its appreciation for storytelling, making it an ideal venue for fans of all ages to engage with the magic of this beloved series.

Attendees can anticipate an array of interactive galleries that promise to captivate and inspire.

The journey begins at the ‘From Page to Screen’ gallery, which features a first edition of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone housed within a Gringotts-style vault.

Inspirational quotes and multimedia elements will guide guests into the enchanting world of Harry.

Next, visitors will encounter the Hogwarts Castle Gallery, where they can navigate a dynamic environment filled with the Whomping Willow, evade Dementors, and see their names traced on the Marauder’s Map.

The Great Hall awaits, inviting guests to step into the grandeur of Hogwarts’ most iconic room, resplendent with seasonal decorations and rich memories.

In the ‘Hogwarts Houses’ zone, fans can choose their houses but experience them all through stunning stained glass displays, a Sorting Hat photo opportunity, and personalized crests, making this gallery one of the most shareable components of the exhibition.

In the interactive ‘Hogwarts Classrooms,’ guests can brew potions, pot a mandrake, and duel a boggart, bringing their magical education to life through engaging activities.

The adventure continues in ‘Hagrid’s Hut & The Forbidden Forest,’ where attendees will cast a Patronus, uncover hidden magical creatures, and explore Hagrid’s cozy abode tucked deep within the woods.

No visit to the Wizarding World would be complete without a stop at the gift shop, where fans can purchase exclusive merchandise not found elsewhere, including collectible jewelry, Hogwarts apparel, and delightful sweets like Chocolate Frogs and draft Butterbeer.

Tickets for the exhibition will go on sale on September 10.

To ensure early access, fans are encouraged to join the waitlist now to unlock presale access starting September 9.

Whether you have been a lifelong Gryffindor or are simply curious about this magical world, the upcoming exhibition in Dallas promises an unforgettable experience for both muggles and wizards alike.
