Introduction[]

“

Diagon Alley is a cobbled, crooked street, hidden in London, where many witches and wizards gather to do their shopping. It may be accessed by tapping a brick on the wall behind The Leaky Cauldron pub. Everything a student needs for their year at Hogwarts – school books, robes, potions ingredients, wands – may be purchased in this winding, bustling lane.

Also on PlayStation Home[]

On Pottermore PlayStation Home, Diagon Alley is one of the accessible areas. It is the area players start in. The following things can be done here:

Book Herding mini-game
Pottermore Card Trading (6 trading spots)
Clothes shopping at Madam Malkins
Hat shopping at Twlifit and Tattings
Pet shopping at Eeylops Owl Emporium and Magical Menagerie

Ollivanders is closed at the moment but will likely be open in the future. There are also two entrances to Knockturn Alley; however, they are blocked. It is unclear if the alley will become accessible to players at any point in the future.

Trivia[]

The most purchased item is the Pewter Cauldron, size 2 (15 Galleons) in Potage's Cauldron Shop.
The Diagon Alley 'From the Story' info can also be found on PlayStation Home. It can be read when players interact with Flourish and Blotts.
