Muggles, take note: “Harry Potter: The Exhibition” will be back in New York’s Discovery Times Square this coming holiday season. Featuring props and items from all of the Harry Potter films, the exhibit allows fans of the series to get an up-close look at the magical world of wizards brought to life on the screen by Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson, and Rupert Grint.

According to Discovery Times Square, there will also be “select holiday-themed surprises” in store for visitors as well as new items from the final film.

“From the moment visitors step inside ‘Harry Potter: The Exhibition,’ they are immersed in the incredible world depicted in the blockbuster films,” said Brad Globe, president, Warner Bros.

Following its world premiere in Chicago in April 2009, the exhibit traveled to Boston, Toronto, Seattle, New York, and Sydney and is currently housed at Singapore’s ArtScience Museum at Marina Bay Sands through September 30, 2012.
