It's a "Deathly" good time to be a Universal Orlando annual passholder

Just in time for the massive November 19, 2010 premiere of the long-awaited Harry Potter and the Deahtly Hallows, Part 1, Universal Studios Orlando Islands of Adventure is holding a special event just for annual passholders. That night, a limited number of passholders (Premier and Preferred only) will have exclusive access to The Wizarding World of Harry Potter at Islands of Adventure. All of the rides will be open and operating for the event, which will run from 8pm to 10pm only on November 20, 2010. Other perks include access to all the shops in Hogsmeade Village, including Ollivanders and Zonko's; meals and snacks at the Hogshead Inn (a place of enormous importance in the final book) and The Three Broomsticks; a free commemorative poster; and exclusive one-night-only merchandise offers. I'm betting other surprises will be in store, too.

Registration is active now via the Universal Studios Orlando website and entrance to the event will be limited, based on a first-registered, first-served basis. Once registered, guests will need to check in on-site at 6pm to be guaranteed entrance.
