Baltimore, Maryland-based marketing company Becker Group and Warner Bros. Consumer Products have developed Harry Potter: The Exhibition, a state-of-the-art 10,000-square foot traveling road show.

The experience will premiere in spring 2009, traveling to major markets around the world for the next five years. The exhibit includes authentic costumes, props and artifacts from the films and will also be supported by multimedia displays and an all-out promotional effort.

With more than US$4.5 billion in gross sales at worldwide box offices, the next installment of the series Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince is scheduled to open in theaters on November 21, 2008.
