Yes, it's not fantasy, it's reality! The city of Valencia will host the exhibition “Harry Potter, The Exhibition” at the Science Museum of Valencia starting next April 2019. Our beloved Valencia will be the second Spanish city to host this event. With its first stop in Madrid, the exhibition received 460,000 visits during its four-month duration. Previously, it was exhibited in cities such as Chicago, where the tour began in 2009, in Brussels, Shanghai, Sweden, Singapore, Sydney, Milan, Seattle, Toronto, Boston, New York, Edmonton, Cologne, Paris, the Netherlands and Tokyo. Don't you think it's incredible?
The Valencia exhibition will consist of more than 1,500 square meters that will include objects and artifacts used in the film, settings inspired by the original sets and costumes used by the characters. Additionally, in the large space dedicated to this event, you can find various configurations inspired by the Gryffindor common room, the Forbidden Forest, Hagrid's cabin and much more!
