Harry Potter Shop Harajuku:

We will be expanding the Harry Potter retail business with the opening of a new shop in Tokyo.

Following the success of the official Harry Potter Shops at King's Cross, New York, and Warner Bros. Studio Tours in London and Tokyo, this latest opening will continue to celebrate the magic of Harry Potter with products and experiences designed to entertain and inspire.

The two-storey Tokyo shop, opening in summer 2025, spans 10,000 square feet and is located in Harajuku, one of the world's most popular retail destinations.

It will be the newest addition to the Bros. Worldwide Studio Tours and Retail division and in Tokyo it will be synergizing with Warner Bros. Studio Tour Tokyo - The Making of Harry Potter (WBSTT), an indoor attraction that invites visitors to explore the fascinating behind-the-scenes world of Harry Potter, which opened in June 2023.

WBSTT offers unique features to help visitors deepen their understanding of how the Harry Potter and Fantastic Beasts films were made. With iconic film sets to explore, costumes and props to discover, and magical experiences to enjoy, the indoor attraction invites visitors to experience scenes from the films firsthand and uncover how the world's favourite book series was brought to life on screen. This is the second tour of its kind in the world, building on the enormous success of Warner Bros. Studio Tour London (WBSTL) and allows visitors to step onto film sets and enjoy an exciting entertainment experience.
