It seems that the theme park has been open yesterday Wednesday March 17, 2010 to showcase what have been built so far. The lucky ones invited are mostly top Universal and Warner Bros executives, and get this scoop: J.K. Rowling was seen in the park walking around and breathing in her creations. J.K. Rowling apparently have pressed the point of no soda beverages will be sold in the Harry Potter theme park. So, strong push to sell butter beer can be expected.

The Array of Attractions

Friday, February 5th, 2010

Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey.

The flagship attraction/ride of Harry Potter Theme park. Built in the 150 foot tall Hogwarts Castle the ride will feature the revolutionary KUKA Arm technology. The rider will be tossed and turned in all possible directions along with the video track of Harry Potter Adventures.
