It’s September again and with that comes a new series of LEGO Harry Potter sets! LEGO dubbed these releases "Back to Hogwarts"! They brilliantly cater to both the dedicated wizarding fan and those who simply seek magical winter village builds to complement existing collections. For builders who don’t usually collect from the Harry Potter theme, you may want to consider this set. Specially designed with charm and versatility, it makes a great addition in a snowy village scene, regardless of Hogwarts nostalgia.
New LEGO Harry Potter Set Showcasing Winter Village Potential

If you missed the 2021 release of the LEGO Harry Potter Hogsmeade Village Visit (76388) set, you are probably considering purchasing LEGO Harry Potter Hogsmeade Village Collectors Edition (76457). This set is amazing in that it features seven centerpiece buildings (including the 2 from the previous set.) It also debuts the Zonko’s Joke Shop and the Hog’s Head pub, along with 12 minifigures. With sweeping snowy facades and detailed interiors, it evokes the winter village vibe for display alongside classic Winter Village sets.
Gifts With Purchase of LEGO Harry Potter Sets
If you decide to splurge on the collectors set between September 1st - September 7th, you can walk away with 3 GWPs:

Hogsmeade Sign (5009867): A decorative, high-quality metal ornament modeled after the Hogsmeade skyline. This piece serves as festive décor for both LEGO builds and as a real-world holiday accent. This GWP is free with purchase of the Hogsmeade Village Collectors Edition (76457).

Room of Requirement (40770): This is a gift with purchase of $130 or more LEGO Harry Potter set designed as a secret hideaway in Hogwarts. The modular set fits seamlessly into a larger Hogwarts Castle build. It features cozy details like hammocks and a portrait, easily doubling as a quaint village attic or study. You might also recognize this as the re-creation of the Room of Requirement set from 2020.

Quidditch Lesson (30706): This is a gift with purchase of $40 or more LEGO Harry Potter set. Recreate the Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone scene where Harry Potter learns about Quidditch rules and equipment.
How to Maximize Earning the GWPs
