Hogwarts in the Snow 2026: dates and how to visit the Studio Tour at Christmas
Hogwarts in the Snow returns to the Warner Bros. Studio Tour London from 14 November 2026 to 17 January 2027. It’s the tour’s Christmas season, and the dates around school holidays sell out early.
What changes for Christmas
- The Great Hall gets a festive makeover, with a Christmas feast laid out
- The Gryffindor common room is dressed for the Weasley jumper scene
- The Forbidden Forest and Diagon Alley get a winter look
- The giant Hogwarts castle model is covered in film snow
Alongside the decorations, there’s a look at how the films made their snow, ice and fire.
Getting there
The Studio Tour is at Leavesden, near Watford, not in central London. The easiest way is the train to Watford Junction, then the shuttle bus, which takes about 15 minutes. Allow around three and a half hours for the visit itself.
Tickets
Tickets are timed and must be booked in advance on the Studio Tour website. There are no tickets on the door. Check the price for your date when you book.
