Wizarding World, formerly known as Pottermore, is an official Harry Potter website made by Warner Brothers as part of the Wizarding World franchise. Wizarding World is similar to Pottermore in many ways - for example, you can still be sorted into your Hogwarts house, discover your Patronus, or learn about their wands, but there are lots of new features, like favourites, where you pick your favourite things about the Wizarding World and can share your choices with the Wizarding World community. This website also heavily features commercial content relating to the franchise, as opposed to Pottermore, which had a primarily literary/artistic perspective.

The site was officially launched on 16 May 2019[1] and has slowly grown to include some, but not all of the features of the former Pottermore website.

For 1 September 2020, the site hosted a special all-digital Back to Hogwarts event including a livestream with contributions from Harry Potter film actors such as Jason Isaacs, Bonnie Wright and James and Oliver Phelps, as well as actors from Harry Potter and the Cursed Child. Other events included CineConcerts performance of a very unique digital concert of music from the Harry Potter films and a special presentation from wand choreographer Paul Harris.[2]
