ORLANDO, Fla. — Universal Orlando on Tuesday shared a sneak peek of its portrayal of the British Ministry of Magic, which will be the setting of its new attraction, Harry Potter and the Battle at the Ministry, at Universal Epic Universe.
Officials said the ride, found within The Wizarding World of Harry Potter — Ministry of Magic, will take guests on an adventure as they get to witness the trial of Dolores Umbridge.
The journey through the wizarding government building will take guests through the grand Ministry atrium, Dolores Umbridge’s office, other Ministry departments and more before boarding magical lifts to bring Dolores Umbridge to justice.

Guests will find themselves on a chase to catch Umbridge as she attempts to escape her trial, while dodging attacks from the Death Eaters, rampaging creatures and more. Officials said guests will also get to explore other parts of the British Ministry, including the Magical Archives — a library filled with towering cabinets that hold Ministry archives and wizarding documents; the Department of Magical Creatures — where creatures have escaped and are running amuck; and the Time Room — which features a variety of Time-Turners and unique timekeeping devices.
Harry Potter and the Battle at the Ministry will open at Epic Universe on May 22, 2025, and is one of many new experiences in The Wizarding World of Harry Potter — Ministry of Magic.
