8 Reasons To Be Excited For Universal's A Celebration Of Harry Potter

8. The Opening Ceremony

Each year Universal begin the event with a spectacular opening ceremony. Last year we were treated to fireworks, stars from the movies, announcements and a tear-jerking video montage to the late Alan Rickman.

Universal are already teasing that this year's opening ceremony will contain a big news announcement. Speculation has begun, could it be a projection show or even a third area at the Orlando parks?

On the same night as the opening ceremony there will be an exclusive event for anyone who has purchased a vacation package to attend the event. Holders of the package will get free desert and Butterbeer, as well as accessing the Harry Potter Wizarding World areas without regular guests being allowed through the doors.
