History

The Warner Bros. Studio Tour London is located at Leavesden, where filming for the Harry Potter series began in 2000. What started as a temporary production base soon evolved into the creative heart of the franchise, housing sets, workshops, and visual effects teams.

After the final film wrapped in 2010, the studio preserved many original sets, props, and costumes. In 2012, the space officially opened to the public, transforming a working film studio into an immersive visitor experience.

Today, it stands as a celebration of filmmaking craftsmanship, drawing millions of visitors each year and preserving the legacy of the wizarding world for future generations.
