About Wizarding World
More than two decades ago, a
young Harry Potter was whisked onto Platform 9¾ at King's Cross
Station, and readers everywhere were swept along with him into a
magical universe, created by J.K. Rowling. In the years
since, the seven Harry Potter bestsellers have inspired
eight blockbuster movies, an award-winning stage play, and, more
recently, the start of the Fantastic Beasts five-film
series. People of all ages have been enthralled by these
extraordinary adventures, set within an expanding universe,
inspired by the vision of J.K. Rowling.
For today's growing worldwide fan community, and for generations
to come, the Wizarding World welcomes everyone to explore
more of this magical universe — past, present and future.
The Wizarding World also provides fans with an instant,
trusted kite-mark of quality and authenticity.
