The wondrous Harry Potter: A Forbidden Forest Experience opens on November 9th and tickets to this incredible event are vanishing quickly. Located at McKinney Roughs Nature Park, this epic adventure just east of Austin is not one to miss!
Plus, we’ve found out that Fever is offering family bundle savings on four or more tickets for Harry Potter: A Forbidden Forest Experience. This experience is a magical adventure for the whole family, and there’s a lot to discover. So we’ve got you covered on some things to expect before enjoying this spellbinding woodland trail! Check out our list below.
1. Wear comfortable shoes and clothes
Harry Potter: A Forbidden Forest Experience is the ultimate walking trail with tons of surprises! The experience can last anywhere from 60 to 90 minutes and there’s a lot to see. Make sure you have comfortable shoes on (while still looking like your cute wizarding self).
This experience goes well into November and December where Austin can be 65 degrees in the day and drop about 20 degrees at night. So you might want to pack a light sweater since the experience takes place at night. Invisible cloaks don’t count!
2. There will be a variety of treats to eat and drink
Either before or after your trek deep into the Forbidden Forest you can snack on a plethora of treats! No need to bring your own Butter Beer, it will be flowing to your heart’s desire.
Different food and drink vendors will be on site. So when you work up an appetite after all of your magical discoveries, there will be plenty of options to choose from!
3. Be prepared to tap into your inner wizard
There are many amazing creatures that lurk all throughout this forest. Can you win the respect of the legendary Hippogriff? What happens when you encounter those cheeky Nifflers and more?
There will even be room to cast your own Patronus, if you dare. Show off your chops and show the forest what kind of wizard you truly are!
4. You can contribute to magical forests of the future
Harry Potter: A Forbidden Forest Experience
Harry Potter: A Forbidden Forest Experience is teaming up with One Tree Planted to grow forests for the future. Guests can make an optional donation for a tree which will contribute to reforestation and sustainability projects. Just donating $1 will buy a tree within One Tree Planted projects. Let the magic of this Forbidden Forest inspire more illuminating forests for future generations of Potter fans!
5. Enjoy the ultimate gift shop for a wizard in the making

Once you’ve left your mark and planted a tree, it’s time to take home a special souvenir! One could compare it to Diagon Alley but this gift shop is much nicer. You can shop for a wand, memorabilia from the experience, or just a very cute plush creature of your own to take home. The shop at Harry Potter: A Forbidden Forest Experience carries a variety of items. Just remember the wand chooses you, you don’t choose it!
