Finally - weve heard of when the new Harry Potter will open! May 28th is the date to remember. It happens to be Memorial Day weekend- very convenient considering many people have an extra long weekend, due to an additional day off of work. It should be a great money making weekend for Universal Studios Orlando. Of course, The Wizarding World of Harry Potter will be a money maker in and of itself for many many years to come.

Why that weekend? Through the years, many new theme park attractions have used the same weekend to open. One thought is that for parks that are only open during certain seasons, such as in cold climates, Memorial Day weekend is often the date that those parks reopen. It makes sense that they would use that same weekend to unveil their newest rides and attractions. So its kind of a traditional date to open a new feature.

We cant say for sure when the park will open, because Universal has issued no formal statements about the official opening date. Were judging by the new vacation package that Universal is offering, which states that you will be granted early park admission to experience the Wizarding World of Harry Potter. And when do these packages become available? May 28th is the first date you can take advantage of the special packages.

Its common to hear about a soft opening before the actual opening date, too. That could be as early as late April, based on previous experience with new attractions at similar parks. So for all of you who have been waiting patiently and asking us and anyone else who may know, When exactly does the new land open? Here is your likely answer. You can actually purchase the special packages now, so what are you waiting for? You know you want to be the first among your friends to experience it. The wait is over my friend!
