NYC- Harry Potter exhibit- Discovery Times Square
 

Has anyone been to the Harry Potter exhibit- Discovery Times Square? how long does it take to get through?

I saw it, and loved it. I wish I could remember how long it took to go through. I'd guess maybe two hours, including the time it took to extricate the kids from the gift shop.

I did NOT love it. It was mobbed and not set up well--so it was hard to get close to the displays. But besides that, it just didn't "wow" us. IMHO, it was "good" -- not great. Don't know what I expected, but it would have been better if costumes and props had been accompanied by stills of how they were used in the films.

I was lucky enough to visit some of the places where the films were shot in England, and visited Hogwart's dining hall. Seeing costumes on mannequins, and wands in glass cases didn't have the "magic."

I don't think it took more than an hour--not including the gift shop. FYI, LOVED the Pompeii exhibit in the same building. That took more than two hours. Hope you enjoy it. Seemed like others did.

Went to the exhibit yesterday. It was Monday and 10:30 am so the crowds were not crazy. We got thru in an hour.

I agree with Songdoc, photos from the films would have been nice. I also think some of the displays were rather dark. However, seeing all those items was a real treat.

No photos allowed so i did buy the program.

I plan to see the Pompeii exhibit in August
