School Holiday Workshop

Are you ready to conjure some magic and make your very own personalised wand? Will you pass the test and be granted an official wand license?

In this workshop, you will craft your wand using age-old techniques passed down through generations of witches and wizards.

🪄 All students get a tankard of our famously bewitching QBrew.

🪄 All tools and materials are supplied.

🪄 Witches and wizards of all ages are welcome but we do not recommend this workshop for children under 6 years of age.

🪄 The workshop lasts 50-60 minutes, depending on numbers.

Fantastic magical atmosphere, design and staff. Kids & adults loved it. Wand making workshop was very well run and engaging . Very enjoyable. Also MELTS toasted sandwich shop next door does unique delicious food as well. A fun, easy way to spend an hour or 2. Lots to see and do. Highly recommend!

We absolutely loved our visit. The staff and owner were amazing with the kids, and stayed in character when the kids asked questions about magic. I would definitely recommend for any Harry Potter fan. The props around the store and photo opportunities are next level!

Really lovely service and incredible range of Harry Potter merchandise. My daughter is obsessed and has been many times whenever in Canberra, I've been twice. The butterbeer is delicious!!!There is the flying blue car that you're able to sit in and take photos.The ship fit out is incredible.Very hot from the lights but that's my only complaint and that's because I'm old and notice the heat more than others.No one will regret stopping by here.

I took my nephews and niece to Quizzical Alley and everyone had a great time. They loved having a turn of the sorting hat, and in the Weasley’s car…and most importantly choosing out a souvenir. So many Harry Potter things!! Would love to come back during school holidays when they have classes on. Highly recommend checking out Quizzical Alley if you’re a Harry Potter fan. Thanks for a great visit!

Fantastic assortment of HP items. Fun to just browse, shop or attend a small event. As expected, items are quite pricey, but still loved it

Quizzic Alley displays were magical. Miss 11 had a great time exploring and searching through the merchandise. The car was a great photo opportunity. When we were there they had magic potion class, unfortunately we arrived too late, but the kids coming out seemed to enjoy themselves. Miss 11 enjoyed a butterbeer and walked out with a few items. The staff were so friendly and welcoming. Will definitely visit again when back in Canberra.

A very magical store with the most complete Harry Potter merchandises. This store even has more varieties than the store in Universal Studios!! The owner is sooo friendly and passionate about the world of Harry Potter. And that Qbrew is just sooooo close to the real butterbeer 👍🏻👍🏻 A must visit when you are in Canberra!

My family and I recently enjoyed a“magical mixology at the sneaky cauldron”The atmosphere was enchanting, with shelves lined with magical ingredients and bubbling cauldrons that set the perfect scene.Our professors were engaging, guiding us through the process of creating potions with a mix of humor and expertise. Each potion we made felt like a little piece of magic.Tasting Fabulous ✨Overall, it was a fun and immersive experience whether you’re a Harry Potter fan or not I left feeling inspired and excited to try my hand at potion-making again!Amazing Host and Owners 💜

Great space full of all things Harry Potter. The owners and staff are lovely The more you look the more you see, it's a fantastic place. There's large items like the car to small touches throughout the store to look for. Get yourself a Qbrew, it was well worth the wait it was refreshing on a warm day. Bought a few items, love my hedwig snow globe and time turner. I'll return next time I'm in the ACT.

Going in knowing that most items are expensive from previous reviews, but a jaw drop moment to find a Dobby plush for $139. Great place to wander and have a photo taken in the car. Was hoping to get a memory item but above my price range. Again, I did know this going in. Did get a chocolate frog and Berties every flavour jelly bean box.The Lass that was working there was very pleasant.
