AI illustrationHarry Potter · Filming location
Piccadilly Circus
In the story · Deathly Hallows Part 1 (film 7, 2010)
A real filming location. When Death Eaters attack Bill and Fleur's wedding, Hermione apparates with Harry and Ron to the foot of Shaftesbury Avenue, in front of the lit-up screens, and a double-decker bus nearly runs them over. The café where they hide just after was built in the studio.

At the start of Shaftesbury Avenue, frame the street with the big screens of Piccadilly Circus behind you; after dark it looks most like the film.
