About Watford

  • The Warner Bros. Studio Tour — The Making of Harry Potter, located at Leavesden just outside Watford, is one of the most visited tourist attractions in Britain, drawing over a million visitors a year to see the original sets, costumes, and props from the Harry Potter film series. The studios at Leavesden were originally built as an aircraft factory during the Second World War and later used for aircraft maintenance before being converted into film studios in the 1990s. The Harry Potter films were shot here between 2000 and 2011, and the studio tour — which opened in 2012 — preserves the Great Hall, Dumbledore's office, Diagon Alley, and many other iconic sets in their original form, giving visitors an extraordinary behind-the-scenes view of how the films were made.
  • Watford FC, known as the Hornets, has one of the most unusual ownership histories in English football — the club was purchased by the Pozzo family, who also own Udinese in Italy and Granada in Spain, in 2012, and the family's approach of using the club as a development platform for players from their network of clubs and agents transformed Watford's fortunes, taking them from the Championship to the Premier League and to an FA Cup final in 2019. The club's Vicarage Road ground, which has been their home since 1922, is one of the most compact and atmospheric grounds in the Premier League, and the Hornets' yellow and black colours are among the most distinctive in English football.
  • Cassiobury Park, the largest park in Hertfordshire, occupies the grounds of the former Cassiobury House — a great country house demolished in 1927 whose park was laid out by the landscape designer Humphry Repton in the early 19th century. Repton, who worked on over 400 gardens and parks across England, was the leading landscape designer of his generation and the successor to Capability Brown in the tradition of the English landscape garden. The park retains many of Repton's original features including the River Gade, the ornamental canal, and the woodland walks, and it is now one of the most heavily used public parks in Hertfordshire, attracting over two million visitors a year.
