Can you bring a bag into Harry Potter world?

You can bring backpacks and snacks into the Wizarding World of Harry Potter theme park areas of Universal Studios and Islands of Adventure, but you can't bring bags with you on most of the rides. The park offers free lockers for use during the ride, but there are a few things you should know.

Universal also prohibits duffle bags, suitcases, hard-sided coolers, and soft-sided coolers over 6? x 6? x 8.5? (152 mm x 152 mm x 216 mm) in size. Touring Tip: Bring bags smaller than 14? x 16? x 5.5? – that size will fit into Universal's free attraction lockers.

For this reason, we typically recommend you plan to bring a fanny pack, so you can skip these lockers! For guests who only have fanny packs, you must move the fanny pack around your waist (so no wearing it as a sling bag), but once it's firmly around your waist, you can hop on most rides with it.

As many have answered above, some rides you can not have any loose items including a shoulder bag. There are lockers provided, which are free for a couple of hours, but mind you they are quite small, a typical cubicle, so I recommend bringing only a small bag.

Wear a fanny pack or use a VERY secure pocket that zips closed. The coasters are intense. A cross body bag would make it very difficult to secure the harnesses on the rides. Plus it would likely fly up and smack you in the face.

So even if a park doesn't make you go through metal detectors at a coaster's queue, stow the phone anyway. And that means leaving it at the station, in a locker, or at the very least inside a closed pocket where it can't fly out during the ride. That goes for anything you're carrying with you in the park, too.

If you just have a small purse or bag, some of the rides will have a pouch or place to put that while you ride. Sometimes there are cubbies or shelves to place your bags as well. If you have large items, I recommend getting a locker. Locker Rentals are available in a variety of sizes and prices.
