Nighttime light show coming to Harry Potter land at Universal Studios Hollywood

Hogwarts Castle is getting a nighttime light show at Universal Studios Hollywood this summer.

The five-minute show, called “The Nighttime Lights at Hogwarts Castle,” was inspired by last year’s opening ceremonies of The Wizarding World of Harry Potter.

It will feature projected effects on the castle and around the village of Hogsmeade at the theme park.

A new musical score was written by composer John Williams for the new show, according to a release from Universal Studios Hollywood. The London Symphony Orchestra recorded the music in London.

Special effects projectors and a variety of high-tech lights will be used to present the automated show that will run several times a night beginning Friday night, June 23, at the theme park.
