If you're totally over autumn and are already planning Christmas shenanigans, it's time to start saving for an experience that will definitely top your last trip out carolling with your aunties.

For the third year in a row, Harry Potter fans around the country can enjoy an actual Christmas feast inside The Great Hall, as part of Warner Bros. Studio Tour's magical makeover into Hogwarts in the Snow.

From November 18, 2017 – January 28, 2018, visitors will be able to step into a Harry Potter-themed winter wonderland, and for the first time ever, the Great Hall stage will be decorated as it was for the iconic Yule Ball, with snow-covered Christmas trees, icicles and an orchestra of magical instruments.

Is that the dream, or is that the dream?

This festive season will also see the return of the highly anticipated 'Dinner in the Great Hall'. On December 11-13, lucky Harry Potter fans can enjoy drinks and canapés before sitting down to a two-course Christmas feast, and then be unleashed on a tour of the studio.

(To be honest, we'd probably like that bit the most considering it wouldn't be filled with kids that we're supposed to let steal all the good viewing spots.)

The ticket price – which isn't cheap at £240 per person – also includes a wand of your choice, canapés, drinks, and obviously, some Butterbeer.

Considering we're skint, we'll probably just put on our finest Gryffindor robe (which handily doubles as our dressing gown) and scoff some Mini Rolls during a Harry Potter movie marathon.

But still, if we had the money, we'd be all over this.

Tickets go on sale at 10am on Tuesday, October 24 – and we recommend you get in there sharpish if you've got your heart set on celebrating Christmas at Hogwarts.
