The latest additions to Warner Bro’s The Making of Harry Potter Studio Tour in the UK  are a ‘Sweets and Treats’ feature and the return of ‘Back to School’ workshops for the summer season.

The former can be seen between the 20th July – 6th September, and will involve demonstrations by prop makers who made treats such as Petunia’s floating pudding from The Chamber of Secrets. It will also teach visitors how to film food and further showcases the set designers’ immaculate attention to detail through the decoration of Gryffindor common room:

The Gryffindor common room set will be decorated as it was for the Quidditch victory scenes in Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, complete with decorations, sweet wrappers and a barrel of Butterbeer.

The latter runs from the 10th-20th September 2015, in line with the start of the school term (both at Hogwarts and across the UK!). These workshops are run by staff wearing authentic Hogwarts robes, and allow visitors to create their own storyboards:

 This special feature offers you the opportunity to make a simple card model, like those used in the early stage of the design process, as well as creating a storyboard for your own original story idea.
