New rumours about HP Theme Parks in UK, S Korea




The Mirror yesterday reported that new Wizarding World of Harry Potter theme parks, like the hugely successful one in Florida, are to be built in the UK and South Korea. They claim Warner Bros has registered "The Wizarding World of Harry Potter" as a trademark in Britain, and that a Korean park is to open in 2014.

Unfortunately, these rumours have been dealt a blow as Romley Davis, a company that is working with WB to create the upcoming Harry Potter museum at Leavseden Studios, told Mugglenet that there are currently no plans for a UK park.

Additionally, Mugglenet revealed that there will be an official announcement on Thursday regarding the attraction being built at Leavesden, so stay tuned for that.

Well, today the official facebook page revealed the exciting news that the Diagon Alley street set will be included in the tour, as well the sets of some its shops AND the set of Gringotts bank.
 

“It’s official. Boris Johnson has revealed that you will be able to step onto the famous cobbles of Diagon Alley and take a peek into Ollivanders wand shop, Flourish and Blotts, the Weasleys’ Wizard Wheezes, Gringotts Wizarding Bank and Eeylops Owl Emporium here at the Studio Tour.”
