Did you know that Oxford still runs 5 minutes late? ⏰

It’s not because people are slow—it’s actually a quirky tradition based on Oxford Time, which dates back to the days before clocks were standardized.

Back then, towns set their clocks by the sun, not a national time. Since Oxford is west of London, the sun hit Oxford about 5 minutes later. So, locals lived on their own time—5 minutes behind Greenwich Mean Time (GMT).

Even today, Oxford keeps this tradition alive. If you’re ever near Christ Church, you’ll hear the Great Tom bell ringing at 9:05 PM instead of 9:00 PM. That’s because it’s still following Oxford Time!

Just a fun reminder that Oxford likes to do things its own way—even with time!

✨ Oxford Magic Walking Tours in Talks with Warner Bros. ✨

Oxford Magic Walking Tours, the only tour in the city where real street magic meets Harry Potter film locations, is very excited to share some big news. The company is currently in talks with Warner Bros. Studio Tour – The Making of Harry Potter about a possible collaboration. This could bring a whole new level of magic to Oxford.

Oxford Magic Walking Tours would become the only official Harry Potter tour of Oxford. This would give fans of the Wizarding World a truly unique adventure. Imagine walking the cobbled streets of Oxford, seeing spots from the films, and being wowed by live magic tricks along the way. It’s not just a tour—it’s an experience that families, tourists, and Harry Potter enthusiasts will love.

Shane Sterling, who founded Oxford Magic Walking Tours, said: “I am so honored to be in talks with Warner Bros. Our tours mix storytelling, magic, and history in a really special way. Working together could make our tours even more magical, bringing something wonderful to Oxford visitors from everywhere.”

Already, Oxford Magic Walking Tours is a big hit with visitors. It has amazing 5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ reviews on Google and TripAdvisor, and people say it’s a must-do when visiting Oxford. What makes this tour really special is the guide—a professional magician who has performed for the British Royal Family and other top-tier clients to this day. His skills bring real magic and surprise to every tour, leaving guests with memories that last long after the tour has ended.

Talks with Warner Bros. are on going, and we will share updates when possible.
