LONDON -- You can't get much more magical than eating Christmas dinner in Hogwarts' Great Hall.

The update Archivesprice may not exactly be cheap -- it's a solid £240 ($304) per person this year -- but for big Harry Potterfans, eating at the original set at the Warner Bros. Studios looks like a hell of a cool experience.

Over the weekend Destiny Blue, an artist based in London, documented her trip to the event and shared the photos on Imgur. At the time of writing, her post has already been viewed over 600,000 times.

"Tickets were released at 10 a.m. one October morning, and after the website crashed, were sold out as soon as it came back on," she told Mashable. "I was very lucky!"

"I went with a friend, who I gifted the experience to, and in return she kindly gifted me with these beautiful photos! It's the kind of outing which is brilliant with friends -- but if you're looking to meet people then it's the perfect place as well because the mood is so relaxed and jovial."

The only thing Destiny Blue wasn't quite as keen on was the food.

"Now I knew I probably wouldn't be that well catered for because I'm vegan," she wrote on Imgur. "But the starter was just a few bits of lettuce... although for the main, I think I had better than the meat eaters!

"The smoke staked aubergine was delicious, but the serving was so small, and it didn't really fill me up."

After having dinner, Destiny was given a tour of the of the studio and the Hogwarts express. You can see more of her photos on Imgur.

"My favourite part was probably the Diagon Alley set, as it's the most immersive and you feel like you're actually 'there'," she told Mashable. "Although battling the Death Eaters was pretty cool!"

And will she be going back next year?

"That trip was so special I don't know if a second time is needed!" she said. "But I would recommend everyone else go."

You can see more of Destiny's work on her Deviant Art and Facebook pages.
