CityWalk/Harry Potter shops?

[jesusluvsu2005]

We won't be going to Universal during our trip but have never been to the CityWalk area. Are there any Harry Potter shops there or shops that have Harry Potter merchandise? Thanks!

There are specifics potter shops but the main universal shop there sells some potter goodies. Also the gift shops at the hotels will have some as well

We got back very early this morning. The Universal Store at City Walk had some HP merchandise, but not nearly as much as in the parks. There was a decent selection of shirts, accessories (lanyards, headbands, scarves), and keyrings. I think there were full sized pygmy puffs. I do not recall wands or robes, but we were not looking for those things.

The City Walk store was not very large, and had things from most of the IPs (Seuss, JP, DM, HP, etc), so not a very large selection from any one IP.

The Universal Store at City Walk does sell the regular wands and the interactive wands. They also sell the chocolate frogs and Bertie Bott's.

Is it easy to get to there from Disney?

One thing though ... I think you have to pay for parking as though you are going to the theme parks. $17 according to their website. I think I saw a sign that says you can park after 6:00 for $5 but didn't see that mentioned on their website.

Yea you have to pay for parking. I think there might be a pay by the hour lot but not sure.

There is also a bunch of HP stuff at the Universal shop in MCO if you're flying.

We drove between Disney and Universal earlier this month. It was about 15 minutes from the Disney Main Gate to the Hard Rock.

Is it easy to get to there from Disney?

Yeah, it's not bad at all. If you're driving and parking, there are moving walkways that get you most of the way from parking to CityWalk.
