Cedar Creek Welcomes the Wizarding World with Harry Potter: A Forbidden Forest Experience

Cedar Creek, Texas, is set to transform into a magical wonderland this fall as it welcomes the much-anticipated Harry Potter: A Forbidden Forest Experience. The new attraction will open its doors on November 9, 2023, at McKinney Roughs Nature Park, located just outside of Austin. This event promises to bring a taste of the beloved Harry Potter universe to Central Texas for the first time.

An Immersive Adventure

Those eager to dive into this spellbinding adventure can expect an exciting nighttime woodland trail filled with interactive moments and stunning lighting effects. The experience is designed to celebrate some of the most magical scenes from J.K. Rowling’s iconic books and films. Guests will be treated to a 60 to 90-minute journey through the enchanted forest, encountering some of the beloved mythical creatures from the Harry Potter and Fantastic Beasts films.

Visitors can look forward to encounters with fascinating creatures such as Hippogriffs, Unicorns, and Nifflers, making this an unforgettable adventure for fans of all ages. The experience goes beyond just walking; participants will have opportunities to take photos, engage in wand dueling, and even practice casting a Patronus to light up the dark woods and fend off the ominous Dementors.

A Beautiful Setting

According to its creators, the experience has been brought to life by award-winning theatrical designers who have put extensive thought into ensuring the woodland is both beautiful and immersive. The magical elements are complemented by a themed village that will offer a delightful assortment of food and drinks inspired by the Harry Potter universe. Guests can also browse through an onsite retail store, where they can purchase official Harry Potter merchandise.

Tickets and Timing

For those excited to join this adventure, timed-entry tickets will be available starting at $41 for adults and $28 for children. Ticket sales are set to begin on Thursday, August 29 at 10 a.m., and fans can now join the waitlist on the Harry Potter Forbidden Forest Experience website to secure their spot. It is advisable to act quickly, as the event sold out rapidly in the Dallas-Fort Worth area last year.

The experience will be open from Monday to Sunday, starting on November 9, from 5:45 PM to 11:45 PM, with the last entry at 10:15 PM. This extensive time frame allows plenty of opportunities for fans to enjoy the enchanting atmosphere.
