Harry Potter: The Exhibition Lands in Milan at Fabbrica del Vapore
Harry Potter: The Exhibition has opened at Fabbrica del Vapore in Milan, featuring over 1,600 square meters of set pieces from the eight films. The show debuted in Chicago and has since traveled through Canada, China, and Japan, attracting over four million visitors. The Milan edition was inaugurated by actors James and Oliver Phelps, who played Fred and George Weasley. Key props are placed around the city: the Sorting Hat in Piazza Missori, Nimbus 2000 in via Moscova, Dobby the house-elf in Piazza Argentina, and the Ford Anglia near Cadorna station. The exhibition recreates the dark atmosphere of the films, which appeal to a broad audience beyond children. The saga, written by J.K. Rowling and produced by Warner Bros., has become one of the highest-grossing film franchises.
