A Harry Potter-themed party isn’t just for Halloween. Try having a Harry Potter Christmas Party this year as well. It can be fun for all ages.
We often think about Harry Potter and Halloween because we associate witches and magic with the holiday. However, Harry Potter also contains a lot of Christmas scenes and it’s fun to make it apart of your Christmas as well.
Warner Bros. Studio in London even recreated a Great Hall at Hogwarts Christmas dinner a few years ago.
Every year my husband and I watch Harry Potter while putting up the Christmas tree. I’m not sure how the tradition even started but it’s one we enjoy. One year I even made homemade butterbeer.
If you are looking for a unique holiday celebrate have a little Harry Potter Christmas party. You can go all out and invite friends or just have a little viewing party with your family.
