The Magic of Christmas at Hogwarts Castle Light Show
As night falls and the stars twinkle above, the stunning Hogwarts Castle transforms into a canvas for an extraordinary projection light show. Every brick, turret, and window comes to life with a symphony of dancing lights, enchanting music, and beloved holiday sparkle from the Harry Potter series.
We love the fireworks and the light up pinecones around the Flight of the Hippogriff!
Magic of Christmas at Hogwarts Castle Show Timings
The Magic of Christmas at Hogwarts Castle occurs at 20-minute intervals from dusk to park close. This frequent schedule ensures that you have multiple opportunities to witness the magic and fit it into your night seamlessly.
The Best Time to View the Magic of Christmas at Hogwarts Castle
The later showings of the night often offer a unique advantage. While many visitors rush to catch the first display, the later showtimes can be your golden ticket to a less crowded experience. Ride all of the rides while other guests watch the show, you’ll find shorter lines at popular rides and attractions. It’s the perfect way to savor the charm of the holidays at Universal without the rush.
Access to The Magic of Christmas at Hogwarts Castle
Unlike previous years, The Magic of Christmas at Hogwarts Castle is not exclusive to Universal’s Holiday Tour. All park guests can enjoy this spellbinding display.
You must enter from Hogsmeade. Remember, Team Members will direct guests to exit from the Jurassic Park area after the show.
