    Acclaimed Harry Potter immersive exhibition is coming to Dallas

    Harry Potter: The Exhibition

    A new tour centered on the iconic Harry Potter is coming to town: Harry Potter: The Exhibition — a U.S. tour from Warner Bros. Discovery Global Experiences, Imagine, and Eventim Live — will make its next stop in Dallas debuting at Pepper Square on October 24, 2025.

    The tour will replace Titanic: The Exhibition, a similarly immersive, interactive tour that has been in residence at Pepper Square in a former Steinmart at 14902 Preston Rd., since February 14 and will be departing on September 1.

    Tickets for Harry Potter will go on sale Wednesday, September 10, but you can join a waitlist to get early access to tickets with a presale offered beginning Tuesday, September 9.

    The behind-the-scenes exhibition celebrates iconic moments, characters, settings, and beasts as seen in the Harry Potter and Fantastic Beasts film series, as well as wonders from the extended world of Harry Potter, which includes the Broadway production Harry Potter and the Cursed Child.

    Guests can get an up-close look at original costumes and authentic props while taking a journey through magical galleries using what the release describes as best-in-class immersive design and technology.

    "This exhibition celebrates the extended world of Harry Potter like no other touring exhibition has done before,” says Imagine president and CEO Tom Zaller, who also gives DFW a special shout-out: “With its family-friendly environment and great appreciation for storytelling and adventure, North Texas is the perfect place for fans and families of all ages to experience the magic of the wizarding world."

    Since its world premiere in Philadelphia in February 2022, Harry Potter: The Exhibition has captivated more than 4 million fans and visitors worldwide. The exhibition has traveled to major cities around the globe and is currently on display in Salt Lake City; Krakow, Poland; Melbourne, Australia, and Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates.

    Exhibition Highlights
    From Page to Screen Gallery showcases a first edition of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone encased in a Gringotts-inspired vault and is surrounded by inspirational video and literary quotes, reconnecting guests to the story as they are introduced to the exhibition.

    Hogwarts Castle Gallery features an immersive multimedia experience with iconic elements like the Whomping Willow, Dementors, and the Marauder’s Map, where guests will see their name appear, prompting them to continue their exploration of the exhibition.
    The Great Hall Gallery is a space that allows visitors to celebrate magical seasonal moments in its iconic architecture.

    The Hogwarts Houses gallery sets the foundation for the exhibition experience, allowing guests the opportunity to experience more personalized moments with the Hogwarts house they select during their pre-registration. While guests may gravitate towards one house, this gallery will enable visitors to experience all the Hogwarts houses in a celebratory hall featuring the iconic Sorting Hat, perfect for photo ops, while surrounded by freshly designed house crests on meticulously created stained glass windows.

    Hogwarts Classrooms are filled with iconic props, creatures, and costumes. Visitors will interact with magical lessons and games through digital touchscreens to reveal behind-the-scenes secrets about iconic classroom moments. They will brew potions in the Potions Classroom, predict the future in Divination, pot a mandrake in the Herbology Greenhouse, and use their digital wand to defeat a boggart in Defense Against the Dark Arts.

    Hagrid’s Hut and The Forbidden Forest offer an interactive Patronus charm experience. Guests will then uncover iconic creatures, such as centaurs and Acromantula, hidden in the forest and explore inside a recreation of Hagrid’s Hut.

    A collection of Harry Potter: The Exhibition merchandise will be available in the onsite retail shop including apparel, jewelry, and edible treats, including Chocolate Frogs and bottled and draft Butterbeer. There will also be merchandise not available at any other Harry Potter experience.

    The Dallas-Fort Worth Film Critics Association has voted Paul Thomas Anderson's action thriller One Battle After Another the best film of 2025, according to the results of its 32nd annual critics’ poll released on Wednesday, December 17.

    The top award was one of five wins for the film in the poll, including Leonardo DiCaprio as Best Actor, Teyana Taylor as Best Supporting Actress, and Anderson for both Best Director and Best Screenplay.

    After One Battle After Another, the rest of the top 10 films in the poll were, in order, Sinners, Marty Supreme, Hamnet, Sentimental Value, Train Dreams, Frankenstein, Jay Kelly, Bugonia, and It Was Just an Accident.

    In addition to DiCaprio and Taylor, other acting awards included Rose Byrne as Best Actress for If I Had Legs, I'd Kick You and Stellan Skarsgård as Best Supporting Actor for Sentimental Value.

    The two other behind-the-scenes awards both went to Sinners, including Best Cinematography for Autumn Durald Arkapaw and Best Score for Ludwig Göransson.

    Sentimental Value also took home the award for Best Foreign Language Film, while Netflix got double wins with The Perfect Neighbor for Best Documentary and KPop Demon Hunters for Best Animated Film.

    The Russell Smith Award, given annually by the DFWFCA to the best low-budget or cutting-edge independent film, went to It Was Just an Accident.

    The Dallas-Fort Worth Film Critics Association consists of 26 broadcast, print, and online journalists from throughout North Texas. For more information, visit dfwcritics.com.
