Harry Potter confusion...

[robandkelly13]

Where is the Harry Potter attraction going to be set up? Is it inside a park or seperate? What will be there? Are there any height requirements for the rides? DD is 44". Thanks!

It's inside the Islands of Adventure park. They took about half of the Lost Continent and re-themed it to Harry Potter. Plus expanded the island for more new Harry Potter attractions.

The Dueling Dragons ride is being re-themed to Dragon Challenge. The Flying Unicorn is becoming Flight of the Hypogriff. The is a brand new ride called Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey.

There will also be many shops and eateries in the Hogsmead village.

Dueling Dragons/Dragons Challenge is 54".

I'm not sure I understand how it's set up. Is there going to be a separate entrance? Because I'm wondering how else they will keep the general public from entering during this "soft opening."

They have a barricade separating WWoHP from Lost continent.

That was discussed on a current Podcast. They are are going to have a lot of angry people since the only people allowed in from May 28 through June 17 will be the people that bought the HP package. Expect some riots.

That's why it won't happen.

I have a feeling you're right. But then the people rioting will be those who expected to exclusively be allowed in.

I'm headed over to IOA/US on Saturday and can't wait to see what it's looking like! We've been going once a month for the last 6 months and it's fun watching the progress!
