This back to school themed event will feature Foundables inspired by Platform 9 ¾ and the gates of Hogwarts. You’ll be able to add these new Foundbales to a special event page in your Registry. There are also new Special Assignments for you to complete and new rewards to earn, including cosmetic items and Restricted Section Books, which are vital for levelling up your chosen Profession. On this page: The first week of Brilliant Event: Back to Hogwarts will run from August 13th to August 20th, with a start time of:
UK: 7pm (BST) Europe: 8pm (CEST) East Coast US: 2pm (EDT) West Coast US: 11am (PDT)
Once August 20th has passed, you’ll no longer be able to take part in the first part of this Brilliant Event or claim any of its rewards. The second week of Brilliant Event: Back to Hogwarts will run from August 27th to September 3rd, with a start time of:
UK: 7pm (BST) Europe: 8pm (CEST) East Coast US: 2pm (EDT) West Coast US: 11am (PDT)
When September 3rd is gone, the Brilliant Event will end and you’ll no longer be able to claim any of its rewards. Throughout the event there will be new Brilliant Foundables to discover and a variety of activities to complete, including unlocking Portkey Portmanteaus and completing Special Assignments.

Remember, you must collect these rewards before the Brilliant Event ends - August 20th for Week One and September 3rd for Week Two.

Brilliant Traces are purple, with a purple beam of light running through them, and have an exclamation mark on their centre. You can only find Brilliant Traces during a Brilliant Event and they only contain Foundables that belong to that specific event. To compete in a Wizarding Challenge, head to one of the many Fortresses scattered across the map. If you successfully complete the challenge while using a Brilliant Runestone, you may be rewarded with a Brilliant Foundable Fragment. You’ll only receive a certain number of Restricted Section Books per Brilliant Event, so make your choices wisely. Before beginning your wizarding adventure, you’ll want to join a Hogwarts House in Harry Potter Wizards Unite. After that you’ll need to learn how to battle, so you can compete in Wizarding Challenges at Fortresses or how to use Greenhouses, so that you can perform Potion Master Notes. You can also unlock Portkey Portmanteaus and choose a profession from Auror, Magizoologist or Professor. Don’t forget to take part in the monthly Community Day event either!
