Universal expands Harry Potter offerings with new wizarding world at new theme park Epic Universe  Universal has added to its Harry Potter offerings with a third Wizarding World at its new theme park Epic Universe in Orlando, Florida.  The Ministry of Magic recreates 1920s Paris, as seen in the Warner Bros “Fantastic Beasts” series, as the British Ministry of Magic, set in 1990s London. The main attraction, Harry Potter and the Battle at the Ministry, takes riders to the trial of witch Dolores Umbridge, and culminates in a battle against the spectral death-eaters.  “We wanted to bring to life the ministry of magic from the movies, from the books, at full glamor, full glory, full scale, and that's I think what we did. And so when guests walk in, I think they will see the level of immersion, the levels of detail, and just really have an amazing time, said Anisha Vyas Burgos, assistant director of projects.
