Harry Potter Park, Toy Story 3, Drake and More Culture Picks
The new Harry Potter park opens in Orlando, Drake releases an official album, and Betty White is back on TV. VIEW OUR GALLERY of can’t-miss film, TV, art, theater, and fashion picks.

Magic is in the air this week as some long-awaited events are finally arriving. After years of anticipation, Muggles are descending upon the Orlando area for the opening of the Wizarding World of Harry Potter; in Los Angeles, Betty White is becoming a series regular again; Lilith Fair makes its musical comeback after a decade, Tiger Woods gets back on course at the U.S. Open; and a Cyrus unrelated to Miley and Billy Ray hits the big screen. Plus, the art world’s premier event hits Switzerland, there are stripping-good times with the annual Broadway Bares event and Showgirls’ “sinsational” DVD release and, if you can squeeze it in before Jersey Shore hits Miami, a little GTL how-to. So grab your Quidditch gear—it’s going to be a week of shameful and shameless wonderment.
