Alnwick Castle - Broomstick Training

Broomstick Training at Alnwick Castle offers a magical and unforgettable experience, included with your entry ticket, where you can step right into the spot where Harry Potter first learned to fly in Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone. Under the expert guidance of friendly instructors, you’ll master the basics of broomstick handling, from cornering and manoeuvring to accelerating and braking—perfect for witches and wizards of all ages. Taking place at intervals throughout the day (weather permitting), these sessions let you channel your inner wizard, whether inspired by Harry himself or the castle’s own legendary Wizard Earl, Henry Percy. Be sure to have your camera ready to capture the moment you take flight, creating magical memories to share long after your visit.
