Hogwarts in the Snow: 17 November 2018 - 27 January 2019

The festive makeover will see part of the Great Hall transformed for the Yule Ball, the Gryffindor common room dressed for the season and a blanket of flmmaking snow covering the majestic Hogwarts castle model.

Visitors will even be able to touch samples of the different types of 'snow' used during production, each selected for its ability to float like falling snow, crunch under foot or glisten in the light like ice.
