IMMERSIVE EXPERIENCE
FROM 16 JULY TO 8 NOVEMBER 2026
Harry Potter™: The Exhibition, an immersion in the world of Hogwarts
Harry Potter™: The Exhibition is coming to Brussels Expo for a great immersive experience dedicated to the wizarding world.
The exhibition celebrates the cult moments, characters, settings and creatures of the saga. It allows you to dive back into the Harry Potter™ films, but also to discover elements from Fantastic Beasts™ and Where to Find Them and Harry Potter and the Cursed Child.
The exhibition brings together authentic accessories, original costumes, reconstructions of emblematic sets and numerous interactive installations.
From the beginning of the visit, each participant will be able to customize their adventure by choosing their Hogwarts™ House, their magic wand and their Patronus. It will then be possible to prepare potions, cast spells, perfect your Quidditch™ skills, grow a mandrake or accumulate points for your House.
An outing that should bring together several generations: parents who grew up with the saga, children who discover Harry Potter™ in turn and teenagers already passionate about the world of Hogwarts.
Harry Potter™: The Exhibition in 5 points
- A large immersive exhibition around the Harry Potter™ universe, with sets, costumes, props and interactive installations.
- Original objects and costumes to discover up close, to go behind the scenes of the films and find the details that marked the saga.
- Emblematic places from the saga to explore, with galleries inspired by the Great Hall, Hagrid’s hut and other cult settings from the Harry Potter™ universe.
- Interactive activities along the way: Quidditch™, potions, spells, Patronus, mandrake and challenges around the magical universe.
- An indoor and family outing, ideal for an activity in Brussels during the holidays, especially with children who love fantasy worlds and visual experiences.
Why we already love the idea
- A universe that crosses generations: Harry Potter™ is one of those sagas that many parents discovered as children or teenagers and that they now share with their own children.
- An exhibition that will not only be contemplative: visitors will be able to observe objects and costumes, but also participate, manipulate, play and take up different challenges.
- A personalized adventure: the choice of your House, your wand and your Patronus should help children feel fully integrated into the experience.
- A great activity for the holidays: the exhibition opens on July 16, 2026, which makes it an interesting option for a family day, especially when it is too hot or raining.
- An easy place to integrate into a day at the Heysel: the visit can be combined with the Atomium, Mini-Europe, the Design Museum Brussels or a walk in the Osseghem park.
- Many souvenirs to photograph: the sets, costumes and installations have been designed to offer several opportunities to take photos with the family.
Our pre-opinion
We loved this dive into the world of Harry Potter™. As soon as you enter, you are immediately transported to Hogwarts thanks to the sets, costumes and many accessories from the saga.
The visit is very immersive and above all really interactive. Children can choose their House, their wand and their Patronus, cast spells, prepare potions or test their Quidditch™ skills. They don’t just watch: they participate fully in the experience.
The scenery is spectacular, the details very careful and the many photo opportunities make the visit even more memorable. An outing that works just as well with children as with parents who grew up with the saga. Allow about 1 hour and 30 minutes to enjoy the entire route quietly.
