His Excellency Mohamed Khalifa Al Mubarak, Chairman of Miral, said: “The introduction of the three new Harry Potter–themed lands represents a significant milestone in the continued evolution of Yas Island and the emirate of Abu Dhabi.

This expansion further reflects our long-standing partnership with Warner Bros. Discovery Global Experiences, whose collaboration brings globally recognised stories and characters to life through imaginative and immersive design.

Aligned with Abu Dhabi’s broader vision for economic diversification, enhanced tourism appeal, and the continued growth of a dynamic entertainment landscape, this expansion further reinforces Yas Island’s position as a leading global leisure and entertainment destination.

It underscores our commitment to delivering world-class experiences that inspire, engage, and create lasting memories for visitors and residents for generations to come. ”

The Harry Potter-themed lands will offer world-exclusive Harry Potter themed rides, created only for Warner Bros. World Abu Dhabi, and bring the wizarding world to life through immersive storytelling, innovative design, and engaging experiences.

Simon Robinson, President Global Experiences and Studio Operations, Warner Bros. Discovery, said: “The expansion of Warner Bros.

World™ Abu Dhabi represents a significant step forward in our commitment to building world‑class destinations anchored in the strength of our storytelling. Introducing three new Harry Potter–themed lands allows us to deepen the connection between our iconic franchises and the guests who cherish them.

This development reflects our long‑term vision for immersive entertainment experiences that set new benchmarks for the industry, and we look forward to unveiling environments that fans will love for generations to come. ”

Since its opening, Warner Bros. World™ Abu Dhabi has brought some of the world’s most iconic stories and characters to life through thrilling rides and family-friendly experiences.

Currently home to six immersive lands, the addition of the new Harry Potter–themed lands marks the next chapter in the park’s evolution, significantly expanding its portfolio and introducing exceptional experiences designed to inspire audiences and drive global visitation, further elevating Abu Dhabi’s position at the forefront of the international entertainment landscape.

The three Harry Potter–themed lands form part of a broader expansion of Warner Bros. World™ Abu Dhabi, which also includes two previously announced DC attractions, Kryptonite Collider and Superman Up and Away.

Together, these additions will significantly enhance the park’s offering, increasing its overall size by more than 50 per cent and adding around 70,000 sqm (753,478 sqft) of new theme park space.
