| | | Dan Radcliffe & Rupert Grint confirmed to attend Wizarding World of Harry Potter open
Actors Daniel Radcliffe and Rupert Grint are the latest Harry Potter stars confirmed to attend the grand opening ceremony of the Wizarding World of Harry Potter on Friday, June 18, 2010. Several other actors have already confirmed, including Bonnie Wright, James and Oliver Phelps, Tom Felton, and Warwick Davis.
The article here states that Helena Bonham Carter unfortunately will not be in attendance at the event. There is currently no word on whether other actors will attend the opening, including Emma Watson and Matthew Lewis, who visited the park last month.
SnitchSeeker will have much more on the festivities to come throughout next week live from Orlando, Florida, where we will be front and centre for all the events set to take place.

They have something up front in Port of Entry but it wasn't completely up yet. There are a few platforms up in Hogsmeade as well. I'm going to try to get back on Tuesday and see what else is up. They do have the MoM signs announcing the Official Grand Opening up throughout the land. They were also checking the lights and audio outside on Thursday night.

so did you saw "any people camping outside the park"?
or heard that the park is going to be open 2 hours earlier than normal on the upcomming days?
I want to know from someone who actually knows and was Actually there, instead of from rumorers.
