The Harry Potter franchise is highly popular in China. So popular, in fact, that Shanghai will be home to the world’s third official „Making of Harry Potter“ amusement park – the other two parks launched by entertainment company Warner Bros are located in London and Tokyo. On a total area of 53,000 square meters, visitors will be able to take a glimpse behind the scenes of the Harry Potter films and immerse themselves in the famous scenes from the series. In November 2024, visitors got a taste of what this could look like at a subway station in Shanghai, where the mysterious platform 9¾, where the Hogwarts Express awaits its students, was recreated as a promo for the Miniso retail chain.
