Warner Bros. and Universal Studios are kicking off their second annual event, the Butterbeer Festival – a celebration inspired by everyone’s favorite magical potion from the Harry Potter series. Here’s a look at what enthusiasts can anticipate during this year’s festivities.
Anyone Fancy a Butterbeer?
Between March’s beginning and the close of May, the Butterbeer Season treats Harry Potter enthusiasts around the globe with novel products and exciting events.
There’s a photo contest going on, which Warner Bros. has named “Butterbeer Cheers”. This involves taking pictures featuring or of Butterbeer products. The winner of this competition will get two Studio Tour tickets for a visit during the Butterbeer Season. During this time, they can savor new Butterbeer snacks and the beloved wizarding beverage.
(Note: “Butterbeer Season” is typically the period when the Butterbeer drink is available at the Wizarding World of Harry Potter locations.)
This particular tour is exclusive to the United Kingdom region.
Anything from the Trolley?
As for tasty snacks, several well-known brands are launching butterbeer-inspired and flavored items, such as Keebler, Hershey’s, Goldfish, and Skinny Pop popcorn. In China, there will be new treats coming from Pocky, while Japan is introducing a frozen Butterbeer espresso.
Jelly Belly, known for its array of Harry Potter-themed treats, is now launching a brand-new Butterbeer confection as well.
As per the report from WDW News Today, similar to last year, the Butterbeer Cart is making a comeback. The cart features barrels stacked on top that lift up to unveil gummies within. Additionally, other returning treats at both parks include Butterbeer caramels, hard-pack ice cream, soft-serve ice cream, fudge, and potted cream. Moreover, this year will see the introduction of a new Butterbeer cream puff dessert in both parks, and Universal Orlando is also set to get a new Butterbeer Candy Bar.
Shut Up and Take My Money!
Enthusiasts of collectibles will be delighted to hear that Lionel, the model train company, has unveiled a fresh series of Butterbeer cable cars. In addition, they’ve introduced an array of new mugs and glasses, including one accompanied by a detailed 48-page guidebook on Butterbeer.
I’m thrilled to share that various Butterbeer-themed accessories have recently made their debut! Global merchandise shops are providing intriguing freebies themed around Butterbeer for those who meet a specified spending threshold during the Butterbeer Season. Essentially, if you spend a certain amount, you’ll receive one complimentary Butterbeer item as part of your purchase!
In my experience, you’ll find a plethora of attractions, just like what I’ve encountered, in both Universal Orlando Resort and Universal Studios Hollywood. Notably, the Butterbeer Truck from last year is making a comeback! This mobile vendor will travel across the US, bringing the delightful drink to wherever it temporarily sets up shop.
If spectators happen to find the truck, they’ll be rewarded with a complimentary Butterbeer and might even win unexpected prizes. Sharing photos of the truck is welcomed as part of the festivities, and the places it will visit will be disclosed on the official Harry Potter Instagram account.
I’ll Drink to That!
Essentially, it appears that Warner Bros. and Universal Studios are consistently going above and beyond to satisfy their fans.
As someone eagerly waiting for a taste of the authentic Butterbeer, I’m excited to learn that all that remains is the process of making it Kosher. This way, those who haven’t been able to enjoy it before can finally savor its genuine flavor. While Flying Cauldron Butterscotch Beer isn’t awful, it’s not the true Butterbeer I’ve longed for.
