Hogsmeade

Very cool place for adults and kids alike. Hogwarts is amazing and incredibly detailed. The size is amazing. We went during a weekday and while it was crowded it was spread out enough to absorb the crows. I can see how it might be confined on a busy weekend. I highly recoemmend the butterbeer and taking time to look in all of the windows and walk through the shops even if you don't intend to purchase anything. I gave it 4 stars because Hollywood got hosed compared to Florida by missing out on no Hagrid"s ride and no Dragon or Gringots :(

Hogsmeade at Universal Studios is a magical experience that transports you straight into the wizarding world of Harry Potter. The attention to detail is astounding, from the snowy rooftops to the shops straight out of J.K. Rowling's imagination. The rides, especially the Hogwarts Castle attractions, are spellbinding and bring the beloved stories to life. Whether you're sipping Butterbeer, wandering through Honeydukes, or exploring the enchanting streets, Hogsmeade captures the essence of the Wizarding World with authenticity and pure magic. A must-visit for any Potterhead!

I visited Hogsmeade the first year it was opened in 2016. I came back this May 2023 and I felt the immersive experience is much richer than before. Even if you’re not a Potterhead, it’s definitely worth it to visit—even if you only have a butterbeer and just people watch. The pictures added here were taken Tuesday, May 23, 2023, 45 minutes before park closing. Butterbeer pics taken earlier in the day.

Awesome scenery in Universal Hollywood. Really makes you feel like you have jumped into the Harry Potter world. Definitely a highlight of going to the theme park. Wish they would add Diagon Alley like in Orlando though.

Such an amazing place that takes my breath away every time. The views are spectacular! Universal Studios Hollywood....excellent job!! You guys are truly magical! Definitely Harry Potter done right!🧙‍♀️🧹🧙‍♂️🔮🎥😊
