A 'Harry Potter' themed potions bar is set to open in NZ this week and it sounds magical

Harry Potter fans, it’s time to grab your broomsticks because New Zealand getting its very own wizard-inspired bar.

The Wizard’s Den will be serving up Harry Potter themed cocktail potions for a limited time only.

How magical is that?!

Originally scheduled to appear earlier this year before the Covid-19 restrictions, the pop-up bar is now set to wow patrons from this week through until the end of October.

It will feature a fun 90-minute cocktail class for you to "mix your own potion and create new spells and magical beings" - inspired by Harry Potter's time at Hogwarts. Except instead eye-of-newt in your brew, you’ll be using dry ice and bubbly drinks.

The bar is apparently "created for all fantasy and magic lovers, a mystical place where magic and imagination roam free."

The experience - which has already made its way to Syndey and Melbourne in Australia - will set you back between $45 and $55 and includes a glass of mead or mulled wine, and a couple of alcoholic potions, along with your own robes and wands while you take part. 

The Wizard's Den is an Auckland-based event, taking over The Queens Ferry Tavern from May 20 through until October 31.

Make sure you get in quick because tickets are limited, and with early-bird tickets available now.
