There’s a lot to look forward to at Universal Orlando Resort in 2016. Here’s what’s happening.

From Jan. 29 to Feb. 1, 2016, the resort will host A Celebration of Harry Potter with Q&A sessions featuring stars of the film – including Rupert Grint, Matthew Lewis, and Bonnie Wright – interactive panels, demonstrations, and more. Guests can also attend the Harry Potter Expo to get sorted into houses and take a mini tour of the London studios.

A package that is priced from $950 and includes park tickets, onsite accommodations, special souvenirs, select event access, and more may be booked online.

For those that hope to stay at the resort’s newest onsite hotel, the Loews Sapphire Falls Resort, when it opens next summer, consider this special introductory offer: standard guestrooms are from $120 per night for a seven-night stay and from $144 per night when staying for four. The offer is valid until Jan. 31, 2016 for stays between July 14 and Dec. 15, 2016 (excluding Nov. 23-26).

When staying at the resort, guests will have early admission to Universal Studios, free water taxi and shuttle bus transportation, and other amenities.
