Entrance to the Dragon Challenge ride.
Dragon Challenge is one of the three main rides at The Wizarding World of Harry Potter, part of Universal's Islands of Adventure in Orlando, Florida.
Dragon Challenge is just like a bigger roller coaster but they make it different on which the participants will feel like they are really being chased by a real dragon just like what we saw on Harry vs. The Hungarian Horntail in the First task of the Triwizard Tournament on the film adaptation of Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire.[1]

Basic Facts
- This attraction formerly operated as Dueling Dragons.
- After entering, participants will walk through the champion's tent and will see some artifacts such as the Goblet of Fire.[1]
- The queue has banners for Viktor Krum, Fleur Delacour, Cedric Diggory and Harry Potter. There are only three Golden Eggs on display as opposed to four.
- The riders have the option to ride the red dragon (the Chinese Fireball) or the blue/green dragon (the Hungarian Horntail). However, the Hungarian Horntail is actually black, this is due to the fact that in the original ride the blue dragon of ice and the new ride is a slightly modified version of the original.
