Changi Airport Has Turned into a Harry Potter World from Now Until Feb 2019

Always wanted to wave a magic wand and go wingadia leviosaaaaa?

And have your very own Hermione tell you that you’re doing it wrong?

And have her become your wife.

Now, it’s happening for real.

Calling out to all Harry Potter fans, even if you don’t have the money to visit the world of Harry Potter in Universal Studios Japan, it’s okay.

Because Harry Potter is now coming to you at Singapore. At Changi Airport, to be exact.

The Wizarding World will be happening here at Changi Airport from now until mid-Feb 2019.

Take IG-worthy photos at Hogsmeade Village, Diagon Alley and even play Quidditch and prove Harry Potter’s not the king of the pitch. You are.

And you don’t even have to buy an air ticket out of the country in order to enjoy these display.

Here are three iconic places that are open to the public.

Diagon Alley

Where: Terminal 3 Departure Hall, near row 11

It’s not just IG-photo opportunities. There are plenty of fun activities for you to try as well.

Test your mettle at the magical world’s number one sport: Quidditch. Be a world class Chaser and score points for your House’s Quidditch team.

And how can you miss out on trying on robes at Madam Malkin’s?

Just take note that in order to try the activities, you must take three photos with three different wizarding backdrops at the airport.

Then upload them to Facebook or Instagram to redeem a chance to try the activities.

Hogsmeade Village 

Where: Terminal 3, Departure Hall, between check-in rows 5 and 6

If you happen to be at Terminal 3, make sure you check out the large-scale village set up of Hogsmeade Village.

Check out the storefront of Zonko’s Joke Shop, Honeydukes and more!

There’re even robes where you can put on for that authentic Harry Potter IG-photo, complete with a snow and light show.

  • Weekdays: 6 pm, 7 pm, 9 pm
  • Weekends: 1 pm, 6 pm, 7 pm, 9 pm

There’s even a life-sized Hogwarts Express for your backdrop.

Nice.

Whomping Willow

If you’re a fan of the Harry Potter series, one iconic thing in the entire series is the Whomping Willow.

It’s like Singapore’s version of the Punggol Tree (which is already torn down *sobs*).

Check out Mr Weasley’s car that was totally destroyed by the tree in the Chamber of Secrets.

Or, you might remember it as the tree that broke Harry’s loyal Nimbus 2000.
