Universal Epic Universe Orlando

Universal Epic Universe will reshape the themepark landscape next year in Orlando, Florida.

There will be 5 new lands, with a little something for everyone. We already have the details on Super Nintendo World, How to Train Your Dragon – Isle of Berk, and Dark Universe. And now we finally know more about the final themed-land, The Wizarding World of Harry Potter – Ministry of Magic.

The Wizarding World of Harry Potter – Ministry of Magic

The Wizarding World of Harry Potter – Ministry of Magic will transport guests to 1920 Paris, where they can encounter fantastic beasts and explore the streets like Newt Scamander.

After exploring Paris, guests can take the Métro-Floo all the way to 1990 to the British Ministry for new thrills with Harry, Ron, and Hermione. There will be plenty of magic along the way and some good food, too!

Cosme Acajor is a famous artisan wandmaker, and many consider her creations not wands but works of art! This will be the perfect place to grab a magical souvenir.

Dining Options

There will be no shortage of dining options at The Wizarding World of Harry Potter – Ministry of Magic. From a French take on Butterbeer to a sports bar for the U.S. Quidditch team, these options may be as fun as the attractions.

Café L’air De La Sirène

Café L’air De La Sirène will fit in perfectly along the French streets.

This cafe will offer indoor and outdoor dining and serve French baked goods, sandwiches, plats du jour, and desserts. It will also have a long list of beverages and, of course, some French wine.

Be sure to check out the details in the carved marble and tiles for some hidden fantastic beasts!

Le Gobelet Noir

If you make your way to the shadowy corners of Place Cachée you may find a mysterious old inn that is popular with Dark witches and wizards. Grab a hearty meal here while avoiding the prying eye of the Paris Ministry.

Bar Moonshine

When the American witches and wizards play Quidditch overseas, they can get a taste of home at Bar Moonshine. This sports bar will serve beer, wine, and cocktails and will be decorated with U.S. Quidditch team pennants and “other items of wizarding Americana.”

Bièraubeurre Cart

Fear not, Butterbeer fans, you will be able to grab a mug of your favorite frosty beverage at the Bièraubeurre Cart in Place Cachée.

Final Thoughts

Harry Potter World Overview

The Wizarding World of Harry Potter – Ministry of Magic is going to be a mecca for Harry Potter fans and probably anyone else who likes a good theme park.

The rides and attractions look fun, the dining options should be destination-worthy in themselves, and if we have learned anything about Universal, its that they know how to theme a Harry Potter land properly.

Epic Universe continues to impress ahead of its 2025 opening!
