Themed gallery and shop in Soho · 30–60 min · Free entry · Open daily 11:00 to 18:45

A themed place, not a filming location. MinaLima is the studio of the graphic designers who made the printed paper props for the Harry Potter films and for Fantastic Beasts: Daily Prophet newspapers, Hogwarts acceptance letters, spell packaging and posters. In their Soho home on Wardour Street there is a shop on the ground floor and a gallery in the basement with prints, props and the story of how each one was designed. Entry is free.
It is open every day from 11:00 to 18:45, bank holidays included. When it is busy, you are given an entry slot at the door. The nearest stations are Tottenham Court Road and Oxford Circus, and it is close to the Palace Theatre, so it fits in neatly before a performance of Harry Potter and the Cursed Child.
What should you know first?
You do not need to book or pay to go in: you only pay for what you buy in the shop, which sells prints, quills and objects featuring the film designs. At busy times, entry is managed with slots handed out at the door. The gallery staff know the studio's work well and will answer questions about how each piece was made.
