Local Harry Potter Celebrations FIFTEENTH ANNIVERSARY FILM PARTIES Saturday 15 th October - Friday 4th November By bringing back the favourite theatrical props and costumes as voted for by fans on social media we're giving you a final chance to see the best of the year so far. The favourites will be returned to the Tour as an unique feature to celebrate 15 years since the cinematic release of Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone. You voted in your thousands to bring back a favourite from this year’s half-giant Hagrid feature; Hagrid’s costume that was deconstructed. This specially constructed variant of Hagrid’s costume integrated a cooling system to help body double Martin Bayfield cope with the heat during long days of shooting. http://wizardingworldofharrypotterlondon.blogspot.co.uk may see the tubes which were hand stitched into the fabric that had cold water running through them to bring down the temperature. Our interactive special effects broomstick "UP" was also selected. You'll manage to stand next to the broomstick, yell "UP" just like a Hogwarts student, and watch the broomstick fly into your hands. Moreover, the iconic Great Hall set, as seen in all but one of the Harry Potter films, will be dressed for the event with a segment of its long tables laden with a Halloween munch including red apples, pumpkins and cauldrons of lollipops. Eagle eyed dedicated fans will even spot the costume of Defence against the Dark Arts Professor Quirrell. Voldemort’s face was added to the back of Quirrell’s head and a model of this is available in the Creature Effects region. This will also be the last chance for you to view the original Sorting Hat and stool in the Great Hall and peer into the Dursleys’ living room as the exterior set of number four, Privet Drive is re-opened specially for the Studio Tour’s 15th anniversary celebrations of Harry’s first year at Hogwarts. .
