We attended last night’s red carpet event for the Diagon Alley Preview and this morning Universal have sent over a few photos.  We will have our own to share in time, but things are still a bit hectic with press related activities so we will get them up as soon as possible. We will also have video from the red carpet shortly. View the photos of Helena Bonham Carter, Robbie Coltrane, Evanna Lynch, Matthew Lewis, James Phelps, Oliver Phelps, Bonnie Wright, Warwick Davis, Domnhall Gleeson and Tom Felton  in our gallery.

This afternoon, Universal have sent over some brand new, high resolution, photos of Diagon Alley, opening July 8th! The photos, which include the dragon, may be seen in the gallery!

The Today Show has posted a video from this morning’s show featuring Helena Bonham Carter, Tom Felton and Robbie Coltrane. All three actors are in town to promote The Wizarding World of Harry Potter – Diagon Alley, which as we posted this morning will be opening on July 8th.

Magical Menagerie was just at a press conference where Thierry Coup (Senior Vice President, Universal Creative), Matthew Lewis, James Phelps, Oliver Phelps and Evanna Lynch announced that Diagon Alley will be opening on July 8th!

We will have a full video of the announcement later tonight!

Update: Universal released a new commercial which can be seen here.

When they were last in Diagon Alley, James and Oliver Phelps along with Bonnie Wright tested out the new interactive wands in Diagon Alley. Watch a quick video of the experience below:

All this week Jimmy Fallon and The Tonight Show are in Orlando for the Diagon Alley press event.  During last night’s episode he shared a clip of himself and Higgins shopping for their wands at the new Ollivander’s in Diagon Alley. Keep watching each night for more clips (hopefully) from the expansion! We aren’t sure what else they will be sharing, so there’s no guarantee it will be more Harry Potter.

Parents: There is some suggestive language in the clip, so beware.
