Why Families Love the Harry Potter Exhibition in Nerima

Unlike the theme parks in Osaka/Tokyo Bay area, the Harry Potter exhibition in Nerima is a temporary indoor gallery / pop‑up event showcasing:

✔ Magic artifacts & props
✔ Interactive displays (kids can practice spells)
✔ Photo zones with wizard backdrops
✔ Themed merchandise
✔ Cafés with wizard treats

It’s ideal for families with kids of different ages — toddlers, school‑age kids, teenagers — and perfect for a half‑day outing.
