To celebrate 25 years of Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone, Warner Bros. Discovery brought Back to Hogwarts 2026 to Venice, transforming the journey across the lagoon into the beginning of a magical experience on the Isola delle Rose. Inspired by one of the most iconic moments from the Wizarding World, the arrival at Hogwarts by water, Nuthouse led the creative direction and production, bringing together scenography, visual direction, technology, entertainment, hospitality and partner experiences with LEGO, Witor’s, Panini, Legami, Rubies and HBO Max Italia. The journey culminated in a live performance by the Orchestra Italiana del Cinema and a screening of the film that started it all. From the Venetian lagoon to the Great Hall, for one evening, Venice became the gateway to Hogwarts. And Nuthouse was along for the ride.
