Airport transforms its terminals into famous Harry Potter locations

Changi Airport has teamed up with Warner Bros in Singapore to transform its airport terminals into life-sized recreations of places made famous in the Harry Potter and Fantastic Beasts book and film series.

There will be a Hogsmeade Village — including the Hogswarts Express train, Zonko’s Joke Shop, Madam Puddifoot’s Tea Shop, Owl Post and sweet shop Honeydukes.

Terminal 3 will be transformed into Diagon Alley, featuring familiar favourites like Weasleys’ Wizard Wheezes and Quality Quidditch Supplies.

There will be a replica of the famous Whomping Willow tree in terminal 2, and in the terminal 1 Transit Hall, travellers will find a recreation of Newt Scamander’s Menagerie, which is seen in the new film Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald.

The experience is geared towards Harry Potter fans of all ages, so adults and kids are both encouraged to dress up in Hogwarts uniforms provided by a shop inspired by Madam Malkin’s Robes for all Occasions.


They can also all take part in the wizardry activities and Quidditch challenges on offer.

In addition, there will be daily snow and light shows in the lead-up to the festive holiday season, as well as a range of Harry Potter universe merchandise on sales.

A Wizarding World Holiday at Changi Airport will run until mid-February 2019.

Or if you looking for a wizerding fix closer to home, Potter fans can rent a holiday cottage that sits opposite his fictional birthplace.

The property is located in Lavenham, Suffolk, which was transformed into the magical village of Godric's Hollow for the filming of Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows.
