Warner Bros. Studio Tour Tokyo - The Making of Harry Potter will officially be opening to the world this summer 2023 in Japan.
The 30,000-square-meter facility and backlot will be part of the current Toshimaen Amusement Park grounds located in Nerima – Ku, Tokyo.
Some details about the studio tour, the second in the world after the original hub in London, can be read below.
The Studio Tour Tokyo will be the second facility of its kind in the world, after London, and will offer a new type of experiential entertainment in Japan. Building on the success of the Harry Potter Tour in London, which has claimed unparalleled popularity and recognition, the indoor attraction will take visitors on a fascinating behind the scenes tour of the Wizarding World series.*
The Studio Tour Tokyo will offer special features to enable visitors to deepen their understanding of the Harry Potter and Fantastic Beasts worlds. Visitors can explore the iconic movie sets that were actually designed and built by the creators of the Harry Potter series. Showcasing original costumes and props, the indoor attraction invites visitors to experience scenes from the films firsthand and discover how the world's favorite book series was brought to life on the screen.
The facility covers an area of about 30,000 square meters, and the exhibition space within the “sound stage” and “backlot” (outdoor filming area) zones will take approximately half a day to walk through.*
Ticket allocation for the Studio Tour Tokyo will be controlled in a manner that allows the optimal number of people to be in the facility at any one time to ensure the best possible experience.*
The open space just outside the Studio Tour Tokyoʼs entrance will be a landscaped area placing bespoke sculptures of mystical characters from the films, which will be accessible to local residents and visitors alike.*
