11-24-2015 - Wizarding World Hollywood

Halloween Horror Nights ended just about 3 weeks ago and at this point is pretty much gone from all of the area's of Universal Studios Hollywood. In it's place is lots of candy canes, christmas trees and holiday cheer. 
And of course, there's Wizarding World which is getting closer to opening with each passing day.

We'll of course start off with Wizarding World, get used to this view because it's pretty much done at this point. Was quite surprised to see that at least one person was surprised Wizarding World is being built. I guess us nerds just take it for granted that everybody should know by now. 

But no worries, I have the feeling we'll be inundated with Wizarding World everywhere very soon. Probably around the same time we're done being inundated with Star Wars stuff. 

Speaking of Wizarding World, the park released the first Virtual Tour video last week. Be sure to check it out. 

The view from the Studio Tour Bridge. Don't think we'll ever get tired of this view. 

View from the Shrek queue ... once those trees grow in you won't be able to see the castle much. 

I see wings!!!

Moving on, the Holiday's are taking over the park now

And of course there are plenty of other smaller projects going on around the park to get ready for the influx of Potterheads. 

This is going to look really nice when it's done

Construction is continuing on the lower lot

The Parisan Courtyard looks ready to reopen at any time, and may already be open.

Lastly, we always like to feature a picture of one of the amazing in-park characters, but this is a new one for us. =)

Alright, that's going to wrap it up for today's update, we hope you enjoyed. Be sure to check back in a few weeks for our full coverage of Grinchmas.
