## The Leaky Cauldron is the oldest pub in London

Despite what many [Muggles](/fact-file/magical-miscellany/muggles) think, the title of oldest pub in London goes to this well-loved wizarding establishment. Found on Charing Cross Road, the [Leaky Cauldron](/fact-file/locations/the-leaky-cauldron) was built in the 1500s – long before Charing Cross Road was even planned! Its true address is number one, [Diagon Alley](/fact-file/locations/diagon-alley).

## Muggles used to frequent the Leaky Cauldron

This wizarding institution wasn’t always a place that where only magical folk congregated. As it was built two centuries before the imposition of the International Statute of Secrecy, it was initially visible to Muggle eyes too. Muggles weren’t made to feel unwelcome or turned away. Having said that, thanks to the *interesting* conversations and even more *interesting* magical pets, many scarpered before finishing their mead.

## Neville Longbottom and Hannah Abbott lived above the Leaky Cauldron

In a turn of events that we find extremely adorable, after leaving [Hogwarts](/fact-file/locations/hogwarts) not only did [Neville](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/neville-longbottom) continue his passion for magical plants as [Herbology](/fact-file/magical-miscellany/herbology) professor, but he also married [Hufflepuff](/fact-file/magical-miscellany/hufflepuff), [Hannah Abbott](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/hannah-abbott-fact-file). The happy couple decided to make a home for themselves living above the one-and-only Leaky Cauldron.

## A pub was the headquarters of a rebellion

Although we never learnt which one it was, according to *Sites of Historical Sorcery*, one of the wizarding pubs in [Hogsmeade](/fact-file/locations/hogsmeade) was said to have been the headquarters of the 1612 [goblin](/fact-file/creatures/goblin) rebellion. Could it have been the [Hog’s Head Inn](/fact-file/locations/the-hogs-head) which was known for its dubious dealings and schemes? Or perhaps it was the cosiness of the [Three Broomsticks](/fact-file/locations/the-three-broomsticks) that convinced the goblins to make it their base?

![pottermore-moments-hp-b5-hogs-head-homepage-hero](//contentful.harrypotter.com/usf1vwtuqyxm/2zygTLqXtChkWM7Asbbca3/14624eac244b6e0d0dd667458176dd1a/pottermore-moments-hp-b5-hogs-head-homepage-hero.jpg)

## The Hog’s Head Inn was run by a Dumbledore

While [Albus Dumbledore](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/albus-dumbledore) ran Hogwarts, just down the road his brother, [Aberforth Dumbledore](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/aberforth-dumbledore-fact-file), ran the Hog’s Head Inn. Crochety and a big fan of goats, he and his brother didn’t always see eye-to-eye. Ultimately, they were both extremely good people and Aberforth even helped the resistance at Hogwarts after Albus’ death – thanks to a secret passage that connected the [Room of Requirement](/fact-file/locations/the-room-of-requirement) to his pub.

## Sybill Trelawney made her infamous prediction at the Hog’s Head Inn

The Hog’s Head Inn was the location of many crucial story moments from the founding of [Dumbledore’s Army](/fact-file/magical-miscellany/dumbledores-army) to [Hagrid](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/rubeus-hagrid) winning a dragon egg in a game of cards. However, there was one particular moment that changed the course of wizarding history forever. On a gloomy night, Albus Dumbledore went to interview [Sybill Trelawney](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/sybill-trelawney) for the role of [Divination](/fact-file/magical-miscellany/divination) teacher. He was thoroughly unimpressed until, among the ramshackle décor and sticky floor, she made her prediction about the boy destined to end [Voldemort](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/lord-voldemort) and rid the world of his evil!

![pottermore-moments-three-broomsticks-homepage-hero](//contentful.harrypotter.com/usf1vwtuqyxm/YvfQFf3Sc7Y1rQNcmqoKm/7278f0704d0a659047a66375127ed129/pottermore-moments-three-broomsticks-homepage-hero.jpg)

## Katie Bell was given the cursed opal necklace at The Three Broomsticks

Run by Madam Rosmerta, the Three Broomsticks was a warm and welcoming establishment in Hogsmeade. Yet Dark Magic still managed to worm its way in there in the form of the cursed opal necklace. Part of a clumsy attempt on Dumbledore’s life, [Gryffindor](/fact-file/magical-miscellany/gryffindor) Quidditch team member, [Katie Bell](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/katie-bell), took the necklace from the pub while under the influence of the [Imperius Curse](/fact-file/spells/the-imperius-curse) and narrowly escaped its deadly power.

## It wasn’t just witches and wizards who frequented the Three Broomsticks

Said to be as old as the only all-wizard village in Britain, the Three Broomsticks was a bit of a haven for all sorts of magical beings, such as hags, who couldn’t disguise themselves particularly well in the Muggle world. In fact, Ron and Hermione once thought they spotted an ogre!

Despite being known for her exceptional brain power, [Hermione](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/hermione-granger) also knew the importance of nurturing the other elements of her personality too. It’s a lesson she learnt in her first year after finding genuine friendship. It is also one that we could do with remembering too.

## Don’t be afraid to be bold

![HP-F5-order-of-the-phoenix-ginny-da-wand-determined-web-landscape](//contentful.harrypotter.com/usf1vwtuqyxm/3yxtbUPaKL5YRyOXEmcss7/b5f3840e6afd0c2e76548570d0532593/HP-F5-order-of-the-phoenix-ginny-da-wand-determined-web-landscape)

If you don’t ask you don’t get! As [Ginny](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/ginny-weasley) reminds us, if we shy away from a challenge, we’re never going to achieve our dreams. If we find our courage? Well, the world is our oyster.

## Be proud of who you are

![HP-F4-goblet-of-fire-mcgonagall-desk-web-landscape](//contentful.harrypotter.com/usf1vwtuqyxm/71JqjFqxFPKBLmoFUGKYJD/22d4d28400d268c5d1382d675b5ce1ae/HP-F4-goblet-of-fire-mcgonagall-desk-web-landscape)

The no-nonsense [McGonagall](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/minerva-mcgonagall) was a witch worth listening to! It’s all too easy to get caught up in the comparison trap, trying to think about who you *should* be and feeling inadequate next to others. However, you are brilliant just the way you are. You are one-of-a-kind. If the Head of [Gryffindor](/fact-file/magical-miscellany/gryffindor) can see that – so can you.

## There is always hope

![HP-F5-order-of-the-phoenix-luna-da-room-of-requirement-casting-patronus-web-landscape](//contentful.harrypotter.com/usf1vwtuqyxm/5zrwB81bovDEUXWbMyCWia/26babee3a72e41ff8557681a28703f5a/HP-F5-order-of-the-phoenix-luna-da-room-of-requirement-casting-patronus-web-landscape)

## Don’t be afraid to dream big

![WB-HP-F7-hermione-reading-promo-crop](//contentful.harrypotter.com/usf1vwtuqyxm/7uWvZ2RIgkybj8J1lCs5RA/39672ce02de6ff4e27d39381deb3c05f/WB-HP-F7-hermione-reading-promo-crop.jpg)

EXCERPT-HP-B5-molly-weasley-first-impression-quote

Molly Weasley: Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix

every-quote-to-live-by-from-your-favourite-witches-text-section-7

A sage piece of advice from [Mrs Weasley](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/molly-weasley)! She might have said this to Harry before his [Ministry](/fact-file/locations/the-ministry-of-magic) hearing, but we think this is something that can be applied to many different areas of your life. From making friends to job interviews, things are always easier if you start off on the right foot.

## Do what is right, not what is easy

![WB-HP-F2-hermione-examining-potion-ingredients-with-cauldron-web-landscape](//contentful.harrypotter.com/usf1vwtuqyxm/4L5hkIozTd68acqd3hpP2I/27590dc492caea34621b56bdd472e45b/WB-HP-F2-hermione-examining-potion-ingredients-with-cauldron-web-landscape.jpg)

‘Well, if you two are going to chicken out, fine… I don’t want to break rules, you know. I think threatening Muggle-borns is far worse than brewing up a difficult potion.’

Hermione Granger: Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets

every-quote-to-live-by-from-your-favourite-witches-text-section-8

Hermione was the witch who once declared being expelled to be a fate worse than death. To hear her trying to convince [Harry](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/harry-potter) and [Ron](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/ron-weasley) to break the rules was rather shocking. Yet she raises an extremely valuable point. Sometimes you need to push the boundaries to do what is right. Following the rules can only go so far – especially if those rules cause more harm than good. It can be hard to stand up and be counted but we should all try to do so.

## Protect what is important

![WB-HP-F8-professor-sprout-web-landscape](//contentful.harrypotter.com/usf1vwtuqyxm/6PcDR4xjlhQ8xtErVUHYBc/198864f4ef4413d1ed6e50f91411088e/WB-HP-F8-professor-sprout-web-landscape.jpg)

‘I feel that if a single pupil wants to come, then the school ought to remain open for that pupil.’

EXCERPT-HP-B6-professor-sprout-hogwarts-remain-open-quote

Pomona Sprout: Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince

every-quote-to-live-by-from-your-favourite-witches-text-section-9

This was a brave statement from [Professor Sprout](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/pomona-sprout) in the wake of [Dumbledore’s](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/albus-dumbledore) death. [Hogwarts](/fact-file/locations/hogwarts) was so much more than a school. For many like Harry, it was a sanctuary and place they could call home. A place that should be protected. This is a sentiment we could all take on board. We should all work hard to take care of what, and who, is important to us.

## Don’t judge a book by its cover

![hp-f4-fleur-arrival-beauxbatons-great-hall-uniform-web-landscape](//contentful.harrypotter.com/usf1vwtuqyxm/7L4Bw903CP5Rnv0MuCknWF/16abc8334d6185d0b8be2af4c5f93c45/hp-f4-fleur-arrival-beauxbatons-great-hall-uniform-web-landscape.jpg)

Fleur Delacour: Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince

every-quote-to-live-by-from-your-favourite-witches-text-section-10

You might think glamorous and goodlooking [Fleur Delacour](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/fleur-delacour) would also be extremely vain. Yet she wasn’t. Filled with self-confidence, she didn’t judge her husband based on his appearance – she knew it was the content of his character that truly mattered. That attitude is one we think everyone should embody.

## Boundaries are good

![mcgonagall-web-header-wand](//contentful.harrypotter.com/usf1vwtuqyxm/6J6heLMpK9Lee0eL8faPnj/18ebb3e1a6694c1ed440bf094b02a127/mcgonagall-web-headrer.jpg)

## January: The determined and dedicated Oliver Wood is your perfect match

![WB-HP-F1-philosophers-stone-oliver-wood-web-landscape](//contentful.harrypotter.com/usf1vwtuqyxm/7iJHeRIUbca989dspC4c2t/a8eae533de5cb364c2b8ef17aa39c857/WB-HP-F1-philosophers-stone-oliver-wood-web-landscape.jpg)

When considering your ideal partner, you don’t want someone who is afraid of commitment and isn’t willing to put the work in. You want someone who is going to give the relationship their all. This is why you and [Oliver Wood](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/oliver-wood) make a perfect pair. This [Gryffindor](/fact-file/magical-miscellany/gryffindor) proved his determination time and time again as [Quidditch](/fact-file/magical-miscellany/quidditch) Captain. He was always coming up with training techniques and drills to make the team better. Yes, some of his teammates might have complained about the early starts, but it didn’t put Oliver off… and it worked. That’s the type of dedication you admire.

## February: Your soulmate is the creative and eccentric Luna Lovegood

![WB-HP-F5-luna-lovegood-wears-spectrespecs-with-quibbler-web-landscape](//contentful.harrypotter.com/usf1vwtuqyxm/5jiVEF9rz3GdDt6go666da/6431193cd66631881320a9921f2913fe/WB-HP-F5-luna-lovegood-wears-spectrespecs-with-quibbler-web-landscape.jpg)

There is nothing that bores you more than blending into the crowd. From your curious insights to your wacky wardrobe, you march to the beat of your own drum. You are proud to celebrate your uniqueness, and you are looking for a partner that doesn’t shy away from their individuality too. This is why [Luna Lovegood](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/luna-lovegood) with her [Spectrespecs](/fact-file/objects/spectrespecs) and radish-like earrings is your ideal match. The two of you would have a joyful relationship that celebrated creativity, eccentricity and a shared belief in the Crumple-Horned Snorkack.

## March: The brilliantly hilarious Ron Weasley is the one for you

![HP-F6-ron-in-bed-smiling-web-landscape](//contentful.harrypotter.com/usf1vwtuqyxm/51khMqIDGh7ltBpFgDIet4/4390b7228f2368b128a11304e8a73108/HP-F6-ron-in-bed-smiling-web-landscape.jpg)

Life’s too short not to have fun. Who wants to be miserable? Yes, serious things happen but you still want to find the joy in life, and you want a partner who can do that too. This is why you and [Ron Weasley](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/ron-weasley) would make the perfect pair. From his ‘Merlin's most baggy Y-fronts’ exclamations to quippy ‘Oh, of course… I forgot we’ll be hunting down [Voldemort](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/lord-voldemort) in a mobile library’ comebacks – his quick with would keep you entertained for life.

## April: The elegant and poised Fleur Delacour is your ideal soulmate

![hp-f4-fleur-arrival-beauxbatons-great-hall-uniform-web-landscape](//contentful.harrypotter.com/usf1vwtuqyxm/7L4Bw903CP5Rnv0MuCknWF/16abc8334d6185d0b8be2af4c5f93c45/hp-f4-fleur-arrival-beauxbatons-great-hall-uniform-web-landscape.jpg)

Graceful, elegant and gliding through life – that’s the ultimate dream. You aren’t interested in awkward situations and embarrassing encounters; you want life to be as serene as possible. As you want this from your partner too, you and [Fleur Delacour](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/fleur-delacour) would make a flawless duo. No matter what situation she faced – from walking into the [Great Hall](/fact-file/locations/the-great-hall) for the first time to rejecting [Yule Ball](/fact-file/magical-miscellany/yule-ball) dates, she was always perfectly poised which is something you appreciate.

## May: The thoroughly good Cedric Diggory is who you’re drawn to

![HP-F4-goblet-fire-cho-cedric-walking-into-yule-ball-together-happy-web-landscape](//contentful.harrypotter.com/usf1vwtuqyxm/7Gg3rW3wpho401kh28ueXG/2ce6bdeb293a9f962407b31ab38c3c2b/HP-F4-goblet-fire-cho-cedric-walking-into-yule-ball-together-happy-web-landscape)

You have no time for people that like to play games in relationships. You abhor anyone who has a mean streak. You really can’t stand when people are rude to those around them. This is why [Cedric Diggory](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/cedric-diggory) is the perfect person for you. Despite being handsome, intelligent and an extremely talented wizard, this [Hufflepuff](/fact-file/magical-miscellany/hufflepuff) was also humble. He was *good*. He helped Harry despite him being his [Triwizard](/fact-file/magical-miscellany/triwizard-tournament) rival and never let being the rising star at [Hogwarts](/fact-file/locations/hogwarts) go to his head. Cedric is a partner you would always feel safe with… and he is perfect for you.

## June: Your soulmate is Lavender Brown who wears her heart on her sleeve

![HP-F6-half-blood-prince-weasleys-wizard-wheezes-lavendar-looking-at-ron-web-landscape](//contentful.harrypotter.com/usf1vwtuqyxm/41iicwNjHTdrMVNZoiTdoC/ddf961f7074d912a9307c0dc9e2716aa/HP-F6-half-blood-prince-weasleys-wizard-wheezes-lavendar-looking-at-ron-web-landscape)

As someone who is often described as vivacious and an open book, you have real difficulty bonding with people who are closed off or reserved. You find those who keep their cards close to their chest rather unsettling – which is why [Lavender Brown](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/lavender-brown) is your soulmate. Whether she was snogging Ron in front of the whole [Gryffindor common room](/fact-file/locations/the-gryffindor-common-room) or giving him gaudy necklaces as a token of her affection, she was not afraid of her emotions or letting everyone else see them. This type of openness is something you can’t help but be drawn to.

## July: Your perfect match is loyal Neville Longbottom

![HP WB F4 Neville and his plant crop ](//contentful.harrypotter.com/usf1vwtuqyxm/66z5lwGFVYTJTiW2dNdKfw/e99e49796545303b7dec644c11004840/NevilleLongbottom_WB_F4_NevilleLongbottomWithPlantPromoShot_Promo_080615_CROP.jpg)

Don’t underestimate [Neville](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/neville-longbottom). He might have initially been a clumsy underdog, but he soon surpassed that and became a [sword-of-Gryffindor-wielding](/fact-file/objects/the-sword-of-gryffindor) hero. One who was loyal to his friends, his school and loyal to what was right. As someone born in July, this is what you would like to find in a partner. You don’t want a person who could easily be swayed. You want someone who is as committed to you as Neville is to his [Mimbulus mimbletonia](/fact-file/plants-and-potions/mimbulus-mimbletonia), which is why he is the one for you.

## August: The logical and intelligent Hermione Granger is the one for you

![HP-F7-deathly-hallows-part-one-hermione-bill-fleur-wedding-red-dress-web-landscape](//contentful.harrypotter.com/usf1vwtuqyxm/5aJclseoYsrr4a0y0XPiQY/be44e1bfabc2a5f7422ed6e87a5df30e/HP-F7-deathly-hallows-part-one-hermione-bill-fleur-wedding-red-dress-web-landscape)

As somebody who is known for their sharp mind and love of learning, we think you and the [cleverest witch of her age](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/hermione-granger), who takes the largest books out of the [Hogwarts library](/fact-file/locations/the-hogwarts-library) for ‘light reading’, would get on like a house on fire. Your days would be spent verbally sparring with each other, debating Ancient Rune translations and generally broadening your minds and you wouldn’t want it any other way.

## September: The discerning Draco Malfoy is your wizarding soulmate

![WB-F3-draco-in-care-of-magical-creatures-with-monster-book-of-monsters-web-landscape](//contentful.harrypotter.com/usf1vwtuqyxm/4FeDA9gWYlkm3iFXZMUOF5/47927d38da6fcc8d4660a5cd92a7e6d6/WB-F3-draco-in-care-of-magical-creatures-with-monster-book-of-monsters-web-landscape.jpg)

There’s nothing wrong with being shrewd or ambitious, these are traits that you rather admire. In fact, you find someone who knows exactly what they want and how to get it extremely attractive. This is why [Draco Malfoy](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/draco-malfoy) is the one for you. We are in no way saying you are prejudiced or a bully like he was. However, the embodiment of [Slytherin](/fact-file/magical-miscellany/slytherin) traits, he was not afraid to openly say he liked the finer things in life or believe he deserved them – just like you.

## October: Fiery Ginny Weasley is your magical match

![GinnyWeasley WB F6 GinnyAtSlughornsParty Still 080615 Land](//contentful.harrypotter.com/usf1vwtuqyxm/4otWY19HKE4WyOOy4Q0wSu/66177ea78a84f5e28b9fb79b2b961e51/GinnyWeasley_WB_F6_GinnyAtSlughornsParty_Still_080615_Land.jpg)

If there was a witch that knew exactly who she was, it was [Ginny Weasley](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/ginny-weasley). Having had a rough start at Hogwarts she blossomed into a fierce and phenomenal person – with an excellent talent for the [Bat-Bogey Hex](/fact-file/spells/the-bat-bogey-hex). That self-assuredness is something that you are looking for in a partner. You don’t want somebody who doesn’t take the time to work on being the best version of themselves. You want someone who is confident and powerful – exactly like Ginny.

## November: Harry Potter’s bravery is what makes him your soulmate

![HP-F8-harry-lake-web-header](//contentful.harrypotter.com/usf1vwtuqyxm/3SzHQWDxZAPjea1KYpaIO0/cc24a62a6e35937f165b190cf14df8e6/harry_heaer.png)

[Harry Potter](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/harry-potter) is not afraid to confront the difficult things in life. He doesn’t shy away from a challenge or let fear stop him. He puts himself out there whether that’s soaring through the sky on his [broomstick](/fact-file/objects/broomstick), fighting the forces of evil or summoning up the courage to ask his crush to the Yule Ball. This is something that you strongly relate to. You’re not one to be called timid and you can’t stand cowardice. We’re not saying you’re necessarily an extrovert, but you stand up when it matters and that’s why Harry is your ultimate wizarding soulmate.

## December: The glass half-empty Moaning Myrtle is your perfect match

![HP-F2-chamber-of-secrets-moaning-myrtle-girls-bathroom-web-landscape](//contentful.harrypotter.com/usf1vwtuqyxm/2HdGuqY9aOgGStQJii0yVY/5013a2d38cecb8e9f536e42f6dbf0036/HP-F2-chamber-of-secrets-moaning-myrtle-girls-bathroom-web-landscape.jpg)

There is no person that gets on your nerves more than the one who is relentlessly optimistic. You don’t have time from all that chirpiness and being constantly told to look on the bright side. In fact, being stuck with someone like that would be your worst nightmare. You want someone who will always look on the gloomy side – which is why [Moaning Myrtle](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/moaning-myrtle) (emphasis on the *Moaning*) is your perfect match. Despite her crush on Harry Potter, with your maudlin outlook, we’re sure you could win her over and many (un)happy centuries sitting in the [u-bend of a Hogwarts toilet](/fact-file/locations/moaning-myrtles-bathroom) discussing all the reasons why everything is awful.

## Did Hermione ever visit her parents on Christmas? 

![HP-F1-philosophers-stone-ron-harry-hermione-great-hall-chess-christmas-decorated-web-landscape](//contentful.harrypotter.com/usf1vwtuqyxm/2DrzUL4vRTtBkVc67pd0FU/4e4fea44a248055cc5bba01adafd5277/HP-F1-philosophers-stone-ron-harry-hermione-great-hall-chess-christmas-decorated-web-landscape)

Yes! In both her first and sixth year at Hogwarts, [Hermione](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/hermione-granger) spent the festive season with her parents. In *Philosopher’s Stone*, we imagine she just couldn’t wait to fill them in on all the adventures she’d had during her first term at a wizarding school. However, her trip home in *Half-Blood Prince* was under circumstances that were far less merry.  

You see, that was the Christmas when things were rather frosty between her and [Ron](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/ron-weasley). Thanks to his relationship with [Lavender Brown](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/lavender-brown), some miscommunication about feelings and being divebombed by a flock of tiny birds, they weren’t talking. As [Harry](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/harry-potter) and Ron spent that particular holiday at [The Burrow](/fact-file/locations/the-burrow), we imagine she wanted to be at home rather than on her own at Hogwarts. 

There was also the Christmas she *nearly* spent with her parents. In *Order of the Phoenix*, Hermione was supposed to go skiing with her family. However, after [Mr Weasley’s](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/arthur-weasley) attack (and realising taking to the slopes wasn’t her thing) she spent Christmas at [Grimmauld Place](/fact-file/locations/number-twelve-grimmauld-place) instead.

## Does Father Christmas ACTUALLY exist in the wizarding world? 

![HP-F5-order-of-the-phoenix-weasleys-christmas-grimmauld-place-web-landscape](//contentful.harrypotter.com/usf1vwtuqyxm/yzOg13hw0sgBTcoyqVEcy/e7060d6cca54531097bc2ff35653c5ea/HP-F5-order-of-the-phoenix-weasleys-christmas-grimmauld-place-web-landscape)

Unlike the [Muggle](/fact-file/magical-miscellany/muggles) world, where we hang up stockings for Father Christmas to fill with presents, at Hogwarts it’s the [house-elves](/fact-file/creatures/house-elf) that are responsible for delivering presents to the students. 

However, that’s not to say he didn’t exist in the wizarding world – witches and wizards still knew about him. At the [Yule Ball](/fact-file/magical-miscellany/yule-ball), there were statues of Father Christmas and his reindeer. Ron causally mentioned him in passing. And, rather gruesomely, during Christmas at Grimmauld Place, the stuffed elf-heads all wore Father Christmas hats. 

There were also quite a few characters that had real Father Christmas energy… [why not see for yourself?](https://www.harrypotter.com/features/could-any-of-these-harry-potter-characters-be-father-christmas)

## How do they get all the food in the Great Hall? 

![WB-HP-F2-christmas-at-hogwarts-wide-shot-great-hall-web-landscape](//contentful.harrypotter.com/usf1vwtuqyxm/iEVeGIMgKgnFzU7EoL6ZO/9356d8bc77636d9f4c65ececc089866c/WB-HP-F2-christmas-at-hogwarts-wide-shot-great-hall-web-landscape.jpg)

This is a brilliant question and as you can probably guess… the answer involves magic. As we all know, thanks to Gamp’s Law of Elemental Transfiguration, food can’t be conjured out of thin air – even if it seems to have been.

At [Hogwarts](/fact-file/locations/hogwarts), it was (once again) the house-elves that were responsible for creating all the fantastic feasts. They prepared the dishes in the [Hogwarts kitchens](/fact-file/locations/hogwarts-kitchens) that were directly below the [Great Hall](/fact-file/locations/the-great-hall). Once they had finished making the mouthwatering meals, the dishes were placed on long tables that were identical to the ones in the hall. The dishes were then magically sent up and appeared on the corresponding tables above.

## Where would you rather spend Christmas. Hogwarts or The Burrow?

![HP-F6-half-blood-prince-harry-ginny-talking-the-burrow-christmas-christmas-tree-web-landscape](//contentful.harrypotter.com/usf1vwtuqyxm/wjNlVCrwkL9sxCSIsiTk6/843ebc6c2dfecb411914070a52dfd652/HP-F6-half-blood-prince-harry-ginny-talking-the-burrow-christmas-christmas-tree-web-landscape)

This is a question that we at Harry Potter HQ have often debated! Do we want to have a cosy Christmas with one of our [favourite wizarding families](/fact-file/magical-miscellany/the-weasleys)? Or do we want to be dazzled by the towering Christmas trees and singing suits of armour at Hogwarts? To throw a curveball out there… would we want to spend Christmas at Grimmauld Place?

In fact, we spent so long discussing it, [we even wrote about it](https://www.harrypotter.com/features/where-would-you-spend-a-wizarding-christmas). From [Dumbledore](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/albus-dumbledore) in a flowered bonnet, to family fun featuring the dulcet tones of Celestina Warbeck… which team member do you agree with?

## Is there a book containing the recipes for all the treats that Mrs. Weasley sent Harry for Christmas over the years? I am asking because... they all sounded delicious.

![WB F6 Snowman Dancing on Cake Christmas HP6-VFX-00149](//contentful.harrypotter.com/usf1vwtuqyxm/6HjV0lERgWSWqoo4MWqMIa/7a12df387a63f04b5d74677c09b5decc/WB_F6_Snowman_Dancing_on_Cake_Christmas_HP6-VFX-00149.jpg)

We agree – [Molly Weasley’s](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/molly-weasley) collection of Christmas goodies always sounded extremely yummy. Luckily for us, we do know a few of the books that she kept at The Burrow! For example, there was *Charm Your Own Cheese*, *Enchantment in Baking* and also *One Minute Feasts – It’s Magic!*

Unluckily for us, as these books only exist in the wizarding world, we’ll never be able to try the magical recipes for ourselves!

ask-us-anything-the-harry-potter-team-answer-all-your-christmas-questions-text-section-6

## What was Harry’s favourite Christmas present?

![Fact File the-invisibility-cloak_1_1800x1248](//contentful.harrypotter.com/usf1vwtuqyxm/4dtIDCA65YwqHvjlk1IeiL/f93227f42e5d2d54f068540ec2bca7b8/the-invisibility-cloak_1_1800x1248.png)

While we can’t definitively answer this question, we can make an educated guess… and we can certainly say it wasn’t the toothpick sent by the Dursleys.

Harry’s [Invisibility Cloak](/fact-file/objects/the-invisibility-cloak) *must* be up there as one of his favourite gifts. Not only was it an extremely rare magical artefact that helped him get up to all sorts of mischief, but it had once belonged to [his dad](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/james-potter). Having that connection to his father must have been extremely meaningful.

Then there was the [Firebolt](/fact-file/objects/broomstick) from [Sirius](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/sirius-black). Yes, it might have been confiscated by [McGonagall](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/minerva-mcgonagall) initially. And yes, that might have caused tensions between the trio… but to own the fastest racing broom in the world? How could it not be considered one of his best presents.

Finally, we have to mention Weasley jumpers. Harry hadn’t expected to get any presents during his first wizarding Christmas. However, he woke up to find that Molly Weasley had spent time and effort lovingly knitting him his own woolly masterpiece. From that moment on, he was an honorary Weasley and had found a place that he belonged – and *that* was priceless.

ask-us-anything-the-harry-potter-team-answer-all-your-christmas-questions-text-section-7

## Did Hagrid celebrate Christmas by himself? 

![hp-f1-philosophers-stone-hagrid-fang-outside-hagrids-hut-playing-flute-web-landscape](//contentful.harrypotter.com/usf1vwtuqyxm/6MYGoPvMPUJz2biUkBUyxJ/72829bf3386bb2e0046036c565d54813/hp-f1-philosophers-stone-hagrid-fang-outside-hagrids-hut-playing-flute-web-landscape.jpg)

Never fear! Our favourite half-giant did *not* spend Christmas alone in [his hut](/fact-file/locations/hagrids-hut) on the Hogwarts grounds. Instead, he threw himself into all the festivities in the castle. [Hagrid](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/rubeus-hagrid) brought the giant Christmas trees into the Great Hall. He ate Christmas dinner alongside the staff and remaining students. He thoroughly got into the festive spirit – even kissing [Minerva McGonagall](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/minerva-mcgonagall) on the cheek! And who could forget him dancing with [Madam Maxime](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/olympe-maxime) at the Yule Ball?

Hagrid was all about Christmas and he brought the festive joy.

Which Weasley jumper would Molly knit you for Christmas?

## As someone who believes family is everything… you’d have Harry’s first Weasley jumper 

![WB-HP-F1-Harry-sitting-outside-christmas-tree-with-goblet-web-landscape](//contentful.harrypotter.com/usf1vwtuqyxm/2ymFvv65bkmT7BqiVujfrc/8cb409614187427289afe68ae1e664c6/WB-HP-F1-Harry-sitting-outside-christmas-tree-with-goblet-web-landscape.jpg)

Having felt like an outsider for most of his life, it was an incredibly moving moment when [Harry](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/harry-potter) got his first Weasley jumper. That bundle of wool meant he was now a part of the [Weasley](/fact-file/magical-miscellany/the-weasleys) family. He had found his people. 

Being part of a family is something that is important to you. While that can mean your closest relations, it also applies to those you choose to be your nearest and dearest too. They are the people you turn to for support, your biggest cheerleaders and you never take them for granted. In fact, you would do anything for them, which is why this jumper is perfect for you. 

## Sometimes struggle to have your voice heard? You’d get Ron’s maroon knit 

![HP-F1-philosophers-stone-ron-weasley-jumper-christmas-common-room-eating-bertie-botts](//contentful.harrypotter.com/usf1vwtuqyxm/5sZSJ7X2Irh2gGZYUMlMrB/1208b5f58e051fbe4bc51b32f3a33f93/HP-F1-philosophers-stone-ron-weasley-jumper-christmas-common-room-eating-bertie-botts)

Every single Christmas, [Ron](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/ron-weasley) had the same complaint… his Weasley jumper was maroon. Even though *he* believed his *dislike* of the colour was obvious to all around him, his mum never seemed to get the memo. This is something you relate to.  

While it might not be a jumper, every year you can rely on that one relative to get you a present which is just *not* your vibe. And every year, you fake a smile and say thank you. You keep the peace and avoid drama at all costs… even if you wish things were different. 

However, unless they’re a gifted Seer, people aren’t mind readers. If you don’t tell them how you feel, how will they know? Did Ron ever directly tell his [mother](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/molly-weasley) about his maroon aversion? We don’t think so. If he had, perhaps she would have made him the Weasley jumper of his dreams. If you make this the year where you find that inner-courage and speak out... perhaps you could end up with the Christmas present of your dreams too?  

## Is living a quiet life your worst nightmare? Harry’s Hungarian Horntail jumper would suit you

![HP-F5-order-of-the-phoenix-weasleys-christmas-grimmauld-place-web-landscape](//contentful.harrypotter.com/usf1vwtuqyxm/yzOg13hw0sgBTcoyqVEcy/e7060d6cca54531097bc2ff35653c5ea/HP-F5-order-of-the-phoenix-weasleys-christmas-grimmauld-place-web-landscape)

Nothing makes you happier than being right in the middle of the action. It doesn’t matter what – whether that’s gadding about the globe, changing careers on a whim or picking the most adrenalin-fuelled hobbies – it just has to be exciting. 

And what could be more thrilling than taking on a [Hungarian Horntail](/fact-file/creatures/hungarian-horntail)? Yes, we’re sure Harry would have rather not come face-to-face with this fire-breathing deadly beast that soars through the sky, but it would be your ultimate dream. In the meantime, having this magnificent creature on your Christmas jumper will do. 

## If you and your bestie are inseparable… then you’d love Fred and George’s jumpers

![HP-F2-fred-george-outside-christmas-tree](//contentful.harrypotter.com/usf1vwtuqyxm/2T2bj1cqjAVmCq8RrzlloH/a437c2986f3d40cae93794325986d58b/WB-HP-F1-fred-george-christmas.jpg)

Always finishing each other’s sentences, you and your best friend make us believe in platonic soulmates. You spend every minute you possibly can together and it’s almost like you share one mind. This is why we think the Weasley twins’ coordinating jumpers are perfect for you. 

Firstly, there’s no way that you and your bestie would pass up on the twinning opportunity of matching jumper colours. Yet, you both also appreciate the nod to each of you as individuals with the initials. Secondly, the pair of you have the same energy as [Fred](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/fred-weasley) and [George](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/george-weasley). You’re loyal to each other. You challenge each other. You make the world a brighter place when you are together. 

## Known for making bold fashion choices? Then you’d have Harry’s roarsome jumper

![HP-F6-half-blood-prince-harry-ginny-talking-the-burrow-christmas-christmas-tree-web-landscape](//contentful.harrypotter.com/usf1vwtuqyxm/wjNlVCrwkL9sxCSIsiTk6/843ebc6c2dfecb411914070a52dfd652/HP-F6-half-blood-prince-harry-ginny-talking-the-burrow-christmas-christmas-tree-web-landscape)

With your avant-garde outfits in bold and brilliant colours – nobody would call you a wallflower. You embrace your individuality and don’t worry about what other people might think. Forget following trends, clothes are a way for you to express your dazzling personality.

This is why the jumper that Molly made Harry in *Prisoner of Azkaban* would suit you. It takes a great deal of bravery to always be unapologetically yourself, so wearing a jumper with the symbol of the [house](/fact-file/magical-miscellany/gryffindor) know for this trait is kind of perfect. Made with bright scarlet wool and with a magnificent lion, you’d definitely stand out from the crowd.

## What is a Weasley family Christmas?

As [Harry](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/harry-potter) learnt after many miserable years with the Dursleys, it’s the *people* that make Christmas truly special. In the whirlwind of keeping up festive appearances, it can be easy to forget that this season is all about celebrating with your loved ones.

![HP-F5-order-of-the-phoenix-weasleys-christmas-grimmauld-place-web-landscape](//contentful.harrypotter.com/usf1vwtuqyxm/yzOg13hw0sgBTcoyqVEcy/e7060d6cca54531097bc2ff35653c5ea/HP-F5-order-of-the-phoenix-weasleys-christmas-grimmauld-place-web-landscape)

We know that this was something the [Weasleys](/fact-file/magical-miscellany/the-weasleys) fully embraced. Even when the family had to spend Christmas Day in the glum and gloomy [Grimmauld Place](/fact-file/locations/number-twelve-grimmauld-place) rather than their warm and welcoming family home, they still managed to find their festive spirit. So, our first Yuletide tip? Pick your Christmas companions carefully. Whether you’re having all your relations over or just a few of your chosen family – they make or break it.

how-to-have-your-own-cosy-christmas-at-the-burrow-text-section-2

## Recreate that wholesome feel

Once you have decided on your guests, it’s time to think about [The Burrow](/fact-file/locations/the-burrow) vibe. This was a home that was obviously well-loved. Perfectly imperfect, from the homemade trinkets to the magical [Weasley clock](/fact-file/objects/the-weasley-clock), it may have seemed slightly chaotic but there was thought behind every detail.

![Burrow homepage carousel ](//contentful.harrypotter.com/usf1vwtuqyxm/5CKdyMIblYYgAu2iqeM4iw/062d8e063e6b6ea505ca4561df4232c3/burrow_home.jpg)

This attention to detail is how we think you can truly emulate the energy of Christmas at The Burrow. As a wonderful reflection of their family, the Weasleys’ decorations weren’t chosen because they matched some uniform colour-theme but because they captured their personality – yours should too.

![pottery-barn-christmas-collection-lifestyle-web-landscape](//contentful.harrypotter.com/usf1vwtuqyxm/4lkT8j8QCgWgfRfHMpr9Ql/747e05b3416fa7c3b4a15b0249cbaef2/pottery-barn-christmas-collection-lifestyle-web-landscape.png)

[The Harry Potter Christmas collection](https://www.harrypotter.com/linkout?destination=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.pbteen.com%2Fshop%2Fcollaborations%2Fharry-potter-shop%2F%3Futm_source%3Dwwd_web%26utm_medium%3Dnewsarticle%26utm_campaign%3DCP%26utm_content%3Dthe-burrow-editorial-guide-christmas-2025) from Pottery Barn would be an excellent starting point. First, the squashy beanbags and stockings above the fireplace create that crucial warm and homely energy. Secondly, with the house-themed designs, whether you’re bonding over your shared [Hogwarts](/fact-file/locations/hogwarts) house or engaging in a bit of friendly rivalry, you can make sure your decorations reflect who you are too. \**

## Get that Christmas glow

As we’re sure the crafty among you will be thrilled to hear, with [Mrs Weasley](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/molly-weasley) a whizz at household spells, it wouldn’t be Christmas at The Burrow without a few homemade touches – we bet you’re already overflowing with ideas.

![paperboyo-christmas-candle-content](//contentful.harrypotter.com/usf1vwtuqyxm/1EwXH9CzT8sTTvautLxIIm/5202da416449d85ed94ca7232bebad87/4gG4c3sg.jpeg)

For those of you who could still do with a little bit of inspiration, we think our tutorial on [how to create these floating paper candles](https://www.harrypotter.com/features/paper-candles-for-christmas-crafting-with-paperboyo) would add a fun Harry Potter twist to your decor. After all, using the big light is not the way to create a soft, festive glow.

![homesick-the-burrow-candle-lifestyle-web](//contentful.harrypotter.com/usf1vwtuqyxm/3YV44MvdjWy8ZzN7o3GdyX/3ce89f948c4a06c79193113fb17a7b16/homesick-the-burrow-candle-lifestyle-web.png)

Aptly named ‘The Burrow’, [we think this candle](https://www.harrypotter.com/linkout?destination=https%3A%2F%2Fhomesick.com%2Fproducts%2Fthe-burrow-candle%3Futm_source%3Dwwd_web%26utm_medium%3Dnewsarticle%26utm_campaign%3DCP%26utm_content%3Dthe-burrow-editorial-guide-christmas-2025) (with a scent that transports you to the Weasley family home) by Homesick would be another fantastic option for creating a warm atmosphere… especially if you combine it with your homemade decorations and the lights from your Christmas tree. \**

## Don’t forget the Christmas tree!

![HP-F6-half-blood-prince-harry-ginny-talking-the-burrow-christmas-christmas-tree-web-landscape](//contentful.harrypotter.com/usf1vwtuqyxm/wjNlVCrwkL9sxCSIsiTk6/843ebc6c2dfecb411914070a52dfd652/HP-F6-half-blood-prince-harry-ginny-talking-the-burrow-christmas-christmas-tree-web-landscape)

Speaking of which, we couldn’t talk about Christmas decor without mentioning the star of the show… the Christmas tree! Adorned in bright red and gold (fitting for this [Gryffindor](/fact-file/magical-miscellany/gryffindor) family), the tree at The Burrow was not impeccably coordinated or precisely decorated.

![hp-shop-christmas-ornaments-lifestyle-web-landscape](//contentful.harrypotter.com/usf1vwtuqyxm/7Cw1IhwQ77jq1rfouzFPWp/674684ca555e75ec64f0bf351dd08511/hp-shop-christmas-ornaments-lifestyle-web-landscape.png)

Instead, it was a riot of colour – effortlessly emulating the joy of Christmas. When considering what to put on your tree, you should just go with what makes you happy. The brighter the better! If you’re looking for some ideas, [these merry and magical Christmas ornaments](https://www.harrypotter.com/linkout?destination=https%3A%2F%2Fharrypottershop.co.uk%2Fcollections%2Fchristmas-decorations%3Futm_source%3Dwwd_web%26utm_medium%3Dnewsarticle%26utm_campaign%3DShop%26utm_content%3Dthe-burrow-editorial-guide-christmas-2025) from the Harry Potter Shop would be ideal. \*

![Broomstick-charm-make-it-magic-crafting-image](//contentful.harrypotter.com/usf1vwtuqyxm/5egVUvMDOsHF9lrXQG1DMm/977610b1abc27afafdd79dae3c4eca7a/broomstick-final.jpg)

We also imagine this was a tree covered in the handmade baubles and trinkets made by the Weasley children throughout the years. A tree which was full of fantastic memories. With that in mind, why not create your own wizarding bauble, [like this brilliant broomstick charm](https://www.harrypotter.com/features/learn-how-to-make-broomstick-charm), to honour this festive season?

how-to-have-your-own-cosy-christmas-at-the-burrow-text-section-5

## It’s the thought that counts

When you look back on your Christmas presents throughout the years, which do you instantly remember? We bet it’s not the most expensive or flashiest, but the gifts that had the most thought behind them. Thoughtfulness was certainly an area in which Mrs Weasley shined! Yes, the Weasleys didn’t have many [Galleons](/fact-file/objects/wizarding-money), but Molly poured all her love into her famous care packages – managing to make each gift wonderfully unique.

![hero-make-it-magic-potato-stamps-v3](//contentful.harrypotter.com/usf1vwtuqyxm/5fXbFb3XKSPtNjOgXOtJ33/cf342cc3d56726b26caf20669faa63f1/hero-make-it-magic-potato-stamps-v2.jpg)

One way we think you could incorporate that personalised touch, is by [making your own wrapping paper](https://www.harrypotter.com/features/make-your-own-potato-stamps-wrapping-paper)! You could tailor the designs to suit each recipient. For your friend who dreams of being a [Marauder](/fact-file/magical-miscellany/marauders), why not make them smile with a [Marauder’s Map](/fact-file/objects/the-marauders-map) design? Or wrap your loved ones’ presents in the paper that matches their Hogwarts house! With our tutorial, your imagination and a handy potato, the possibilities are endless. 

how-to-have-your-own-cosy-christmas-at-the-burrow-text-section-6

## Comfort is key

On the topic of Molly’s thoughtfulness, it wouldn’t be Christmas without a Weasley jumper! It was an extremely important moment when Harry got his first knit. Having always felt like an outsider, Mrs Weasley had shown that he was now a part of their family. He finally belonged. [Ron](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/ron-weasley) might have complained about his always being maroon, but theses jumpers remain a Weasley Christmas staple.

![HP-F1-philosophers-stone-ron-weasley-jumper-christmas-common-room-eating-bertie-botts](//contentful.harrypotter.com/usf1vwtuqyxm/5sZSJ7X2Irh2gGZYUMlMrB/1208b5f58e051fbe4bc51b32f3a33f93/HP-F1-philosophers-stone-ron-weasley-jumper-christmas-common-room-eating-bertie-botts)

Plus, they’re extremely cosy which is exactly the vibe you are going for with your homely Christmas. If knitting happens to be one of your hobbies, with a whole host of designs (including a very impressive dragon) to be found throughout the Harry Potter stories, we think you could have found your next festive project.

## Christmas at The Burrow wouldn’t be complete with Mrs Weasley’s cooking

![WB F6 Snowman Dancing on Cake Christmas HP6-VFX-00149](//contentful.harrypotter.com/usf1vwtuqyxm/6HjV0lERgWSWqoo4MWqMIa/7a12df387a63f04b5d74677c09b5decc/WB_F6_Snowman_Dancing_on_Cake_Christmas_HP6-VFX-00149.jpg)

Molly Weasley really was the magic behind Christmas at The Burrow – especially when it came to Christmas dinner. With books like *Charm Your Own Cheese*, *Enchantment in Baking* and *One Minute Feasts – It’s Magic!* in the house, we’re sure her spreads were nothing short of legendary.

![wob-chapter-2-hosts-james-and-oliver-with-competitors-katie-and-jujhar-web-landcape](//contentful.harrypotter.com/usf1vwtuqyxm/6lIGUhwNfhgN6TQbgohu8n/767e522c17d3446a3a027a9ac737281f/wob-chapter-2-hosts-james-and-oliver-with-competitors-katie-and-jujhar-web-landcape.jpg)

With your goal of recreating an authentic Christmas at The Burrow, why not take this as a sign to start your own culinary voyage? And where better to begin that journey than by tuning into a show centred on Harry Potter inspired bakes and hosted by James and Oliver Phelps – aka the Weasley twins!

## It's all about quality time

![WB-HP-F6-half-blood-prince-harry-lupin-tonks-arthur-christmas-tree-burrow](//contentful.harrypotter.com/usf1vwtuqyxm/CdPOnNTRSG5M6oZ17tdXR/20641a7578399c8f12d33c60f272b703/WB-HP-F6-half-blood-prince-harry-lupin-tonks-arthur-christmas-tree-burrow.jpg)

With presents unwrapped and Christmas dinner devoured, it’s time to turn to the more leisurely side of Christmas. Grab you loved ones, a cuppa and relax – the washing up can wait.

## Cosy up for a Harry Potter rewatch

From the magic of Harry’s first wizarding Christmas in *Philosopher’s Stone*, to Christmas at The Burrow in *Half-Blood Prince*, this would be a brilliant moment for a Harry Potter rewatch. After all, nothing beats snuggling up in a warm blanket and watching a festive film to tackle that post-lunch slump.

![hp-shop-cosy-hedwig-collection-lifestyle-web-landscape](//contentful.harrypotter.com/usf1vwtuqyxm/1p9xCnncBOifk6GwKZ1dvX/1e054c4698c42eac763682d98b294ac2/hp-shop-cosy-hedwig-collection-lifestyle-web-landscape.png)

## Listen to the stories

One of Mrs Weasley’s favourite festive activities was to sit by the wireless with her family as they listened to the dulcet tones of Celestina Warbeck. Take a leaf out of her book and find a minute among the Christmas hubbub for your own moment of audio magic.

![comet-cover-reveal-web-philosophers-stone](//contentful.harrypotter.com/usf1vwtuqyxm/5PAh80rEvvSsVcpM0Z62AW/660eee432cc3fb1f596cc70aa7c9661a/comet-cover-reveal-web-philosophers-stone.png)

Or if you need a way for the kids in your life to wind down after an extremely exciting Christmas Day, the [*Hogwarts Library Collection*](https://www.harrypotter.com/linkout?destination=https%3A%2F%2Fuk.yotoplay.com%2Fharrypotter%3Futm_source%3Dwwd_web%26utm_medium%3Dnewsarticle%26utm_campaign%3DCP%26utm_content%3Dthe-burrow-editorial-guide-christmas-2025) on Yoto would be the ideal calming activity. \**

## Bond over a family activity

As [Percy Weasley](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/percy-weasley) would confirm, thanks to an incident involving mashed parsnips, his glasses and three of his younger siblings, Christmas at The Burrow wasn’t always harmonious. Like every family, the Weasleys had their own drama. If there have been squabbles among your loved ones recently, why not take this as an opportunity to rebuild by bonding over a fun, family activity?

![lego-the-burrow-collectors-edition-lifestyle-web-landscape](//contentful.harrypotter.com/usf1vwtuqyxm/7YYZt6ayUewFWti15eduy/bd431928327a320e0ce1d4c1255477d4/lego-the-burrow-collectors-edition-lifestyle-web-landscape.png)

Working together to build Weasley home brick by brick would be an excellent place to start! Recreating its ramshackle charm, [The Burrow – Collectors’ Edition LEGO® set](https://www.harrypotter.com/linkout?destination=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.lego.com%2Fen-gb%2Fproduct%2Fthe-burrow-collectors-edition-76437%3Futm_source%3Dwwd_web%26utm_medium%3Dnewsarticle%26utm_campaign%3D3rdEcomm%26utm_content%3Dthe-burrow-editorial-guide-christmas-2025) is packed with iconic details, delightful surprises and all the warmth and love of the Weasley family. \**

With its snow-capped roofs and picturesque shops, this wintry scene captures all the wonder of a wizarding Christmas. \**

## Enjoy the magic of reading

As a Harry Potter fan, you know how powerful stories can be. How incredible it is to see a whole world within the pages of a book. How important it is to share that joy.

![bloomsbury-pocket-potters-christmas-lifestyle-web-landscape](//contentful.harrypotter.com/usf1vwtuqyxm/2a88tH3q4G1x8fZawc6XGp/04a42522fd241b2ddca342eebdfc1e05/bloomsbury-pocket-potters-christmas-lifestyle-web-landscape.png)

With spending time together at the heart of Christmas at The Burrow, why not share that joy by reading a book with the little one in your life? If you are hoping that this will be the year that they discover the wonder of the wizarding world, [the *Pocket Potters* series by Bloomsbury](https://www.harrypotter.com/linkout?destination=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.bloomsbury.com%2Fuk%2Fharry-potter%2Fpocket-potters%2F%3Futm_source%3Dwwd_web%26utm_medium%3Dnewsarticle%26utm_campaign%3DBloomsbury%26utm_content%3Dthe-burrow-editorial-guide-christmas-2025) would be a great place to begin. Crammed full of magical illustrations, much-loved characters and iconic Hogwarts moments, these little guides would be the perfect introduction. \**

We’ve saved the most important thing until last. No matter how you decide to spend the festive season… we hope you have a very *Harry Christmas*.

Could any of these Harry Potter characters be Father Christmas?

WEB-FEATURE-could-any-of-these-harry-potter-characters-be-father-christmas

HP-F5-arthur-weasley-christmas-grimmauld-place-web-landscape

could-any-of-these-harry-potter-characters-be-father-christmas-text-section-1

Christmas is just around the corner, and we are feeling festive over at Harry Potter HQ! While we know that none of the characters are actually Father Christmas, we’ve had a lot of fun thinking about who might share his energy. Do you agree with our choices? 

## Is Albus Dumbledore’s beard a clue? 

![HP-F2-albus-dumbledore-in-his-office-with-portrait-in-background-web-landscape](//contentful.harrypotter.com/usf1vwtuqyxm/48E1gB4ECeSmeKdJUMcyJE/d137e502eef231d64204fe8a86c14bef/HP-F2-albus-dumbledore-in-his-office-with-portrait-in-background-landscape.jpg)

Beloved by many and with a beard like freshly fallen snow – are we talking about [Albus Dumbledore](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/albus-dumbledore) or Father Christmas? Who knows! It could be either! Both have jobs that focus on looking out for a large number of children. They each have an air of mystery – did we really know where Dumbledore went on his mysterious trips away from [Hogwarts](/fact-file/locations/hogwarts)? And we really can’t stress this one enough… just look at their beards! Identical!

In our hunt for Father Christmas, the wise Hogwarts headmaster is a strong contender. However, that’s not to say we don’t have any doubts. Even though he is excellent at keeping secrets, as one of the most recognisable wizards in the entire world, we think it would be hard to keep a double life under wraps. Also, between fighting Dark magic, running a school and eating sherbet lemons – where would he find the time?

could-any-of-these-harry-potter-characters-be-father-christmas-text-section-2

## Could grumpy Aberforth Dumbledore be jolly St. Nick?

![fact-file-hero-aberforth-hp-f8](//contentful.harrypotter.com/usf1vwtuqyxm/3MZHDxmsjPjiuizzUC2V0a/c7a234c6c42b2604acd9214e2c6cc2b5/fact-file-hero-aberforth-hp-f8.jpg)

We don’t just have one Dumbledore on our Christmas radar, we have two! As the brother who had an equally excellent beard but kept a lower profile, it would be foolish not consider [Aberforth](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/aberforth-dumbledore-fact-file). Yes, he was grumpy. Yes, he was a trifle *odd*. Nevertheless, beneath that gruff surface lay a heart of gold. Aberforth truly cared about the students at Hogwarts and helped when it mattered most.

One slight problem, Father Christmas flies around on a sleigh pulled by reindeer. If Aberforth was handing out presents, we all know he would choose to be pulled along by his favourite animals… goats. Perhaps he’s not our hidden holiday hero.

could-any-of-these-harry-potter-characters-be-father-christmas-text-section-3

## Hagrid’s care for magical creatures makes a compelling case

![hp-f1-philosophers-stone-hagrid-fang-outside-hagrids-hut-playing-flute-web-landscape](//contentful.harrypotter.com/usf1vwtuqyxm/6MYGoPvMPUJz2biUkBUyxJ/72829bf3386bb2e0046036c565d54813/hp-f1-philosophers-stone-hagrid-fang-outside-hagrids-hut-playing-flute-web-landscape.jpg)

Father Christmas must be someone who has an affinity with animals. Between checking that all carrots are evenly distributed, finding time to help build the confidence of the only reindeer with a red nose *and* making sure every present around the world is delivered, it would be chaos if they weren’t. It also sounds like a perfect job for [Hagrid](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/rubeus-hagrid).

Hagrid instantly being best friends with his flying crew is not our only reason. Caring, jolly and thoughtful, his entire personality gives off Father Christmas vibes.

There is just *one* detail that throws everything into doubt… his beard. It might be bushy but it’s the wrong colour and that has us questioning everything.

could-any-of-these-harry-potter-characters-be-father-christmas-text-section-4

## Does Arthur Weasley have a festive secret? 

![HP-F7-deathly-hallows-part-one-arthur-weasley-shed-web-landscape](//contentful.harrypotter.com/usf1vwtuqyxm/bkN994razySgZmTrMntYL/0fa59eb0f9854f335ed8b6bc8a6c973e/HP-F7-deathly-hallows-part-one-arthur-weasley-shed-web-landscape)

With his ability to find magic in the mundane, [Arthur Weasley](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/arthur-weasley) might not have had a beard, but he did have Father Christmas energy. With seven of his own – and a few honorary extras too – there’s no doubt he adored children.

Then there’s his beloved shed. It might have been the bane of his [wife’s](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/molly-weasley) existence, but it was his haven. One where he liked to work on his secret projects… or could that be secret Christmas present projects? Have we discovered *the* toy making hub?

However, to be Father Christmas you have to be totally committed to your role as bringer-of-festive-joy. Arthur was committed to his job… but in the Misuse of Muggle Artefacts Office. It would be impossible to do both at once. 

could-any-of-these-harry-potter-characters-be-father-christmas-text-section-5

## Have you considered the gift-expert, Horace Slughorn?

![WB-HP-F6-half-blood-prince-slughorn-harry-christmas-party](//contentful.harrypotter.com/usf1vwtuqyxm/3dfAluBtbjIY4aVHqfEGfW/b14db49f589036bcbfea7359e3e563f8/WB-HP-F6-half-blood-prince-slughorn-harry-christmas-party.jpg)

We all know that a crucial part of Father Christmas’ job is making a list, then checking it twice, to try and find out who’s naughty or nice. You know who else like lists? [Slughorn](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/horace-slughorn). His [Slug Club](/fact-file/magical-miscellany/the-slug-club) was filled with all the people on his! Can this be a coincidence? Add to that his merry demeanour, and excellent taste when it came to cultivating presents, and we think we have a case.

Having said that, not only does Slughorn lack the Father Christmas beard but he also lacks his selfless nature. We’re not saying that he was a bad person, but he was snobby – and far more interested in getting presents than giving them.

could-any-of-these-harry-potter-characters-be-father-christmas-text-section-6

## Hear us out… what about Vernon Dursley?

![Fact File vernon-dursley_1_1800x1248](//contentful.harrypotter.com/usf1vwtuqyxm/57Qt2pDtvgSd2MLPh18Xmq/5ac51ddd8fc3f1c479f0b3fd69ab4e10/vernon-dursley_1_1800x1248.png)

We promise we haven’t been [Confunded](/fact-file/spells/the-confundus-charm), we know that the mean-spirited [Vernon Dursley](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/vernon-dursley) seems nothing like jolly ol’ St. Nick… but could it all be the perfect cover? Nobody would ever believe it could be true – he was the director of a drill making firm! Extremely boring! Yet, what if Grunnings was actually a *toy* making firm… one where elves made presents for children? Food for thought.

Plus, thanks to his extremely well-maintained moustache, we know Vernon could grow a triumphant Father Christmas beard. His choice to forego the famous facial hair could be part of his plan to keep his identity hidden.

Yet, we highly doubt that someone as wonderful as Father Christmas would be able to maintain such a horrible façade. Vernon was rotten to the core. He wouldn’t care about bringing joy to children around the world. In fact, he’d take all their presents and give them to [Dudley](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/dudley-dursley) instead.  

Here are all of your most controversial Yule Ball hot takes

Officially, the [Yule Ball](/fact-file/magical-miscellany/yule-ball) wasn’t a [Triwizard Tournament](/fact-file/magical-miscellany/triwizard-tournament) task, but it was just as dramatic. Set against the spectacular backdrop of a wintry [Great Hall](/fact-file/locations/the-great-hall), with a swirling storm of teenage hormones, strong emotions and dancing, the stakes were just as high.

Friendships, love lives and even international relations were on the line and bold moves were made. Whether the characters made the right decisions? Now that’s the real question.

And who better to answer that question than you, the fans! We asked for your hot takes on this glamourous Christmas party and you did not disappoint. Here are just a few of our favourites…

here-are-all-of-your-most-controversial-yule-ball-hot-takes-text-section-2


## Was Ron actually a fashion icon? 
![RonWeasley WB F4 RonAndHarryLookingAtTheirDressrobes Still 080615 Land](//contentful.harrypotter.com/usf1vwtuqyxm/7f7njYBbqg0AquIQ6Way0o/ed8e2c23d56a6b7369ada20226211fb7/RonWeasley_WB_F4_RonAndHarryLookingAtTheirDressrobes_Still_080615_Land.jpg)

With everyone donning their dress robes for what was possibly the glitziest event [Hogwarts](/fact-file/locations/hogwarts) had ever hosted, the Yule Ball was a mix of dazzling fashion wins and dismal fashion fails. [Ron’s](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/ron-weasley) frothy concoction of maroon, lace and great-aunt Tessie smell is the latter… or so we thought. 

It turns out not all of you agree. __David Czarnik__ even claims: ‘*Ron was actually the best dressed at the ball* 👀’. 

You know what, there’s something to be said about how *unique* Ron’s outfit was. It was vintage! Vintage is cool! If he had just worn his robes with a bit more confidence… perhaps he could have pulled it off?

Although, many thought it would take more than an attitude change to make *that* outfit work. 

As __Nancy Gedenberg__ told us: ‘*I have always wondered why they didn't alter Ron's robe with a little magic*’. 

She raises an interesting point! In the *Goblet of Fire* book, Ron did use a [Severing Charm](/fact-file/spells/the-severing-charm) to try and tone down the frilliness. However, Ron is no [Madam Malkin](/fact-file/locations/madam-malkins-robes-for-all-occasions), and his alteration attempts just left him with some ‘depressingly frayed’ edges instead… we’re not sure which is worse. 

here-are-all-of-your-most-controversial-yule-ball-hot-takes-text-section-3

## Ron’s robes showed that Harry was a bad friend…

![WB-F4-goblet-of-fire-harry-at-yule-ball-in-dress-robes](//contentful.harrypotter.com/usf1vwtuqyxm/2N8SF4x3tfNZCgIM3VThsO/19db13c7aa79c6cec916b213f8c46c9b/WB-F4-goblet-of-fire-harry-at-yule-ball-in-dress-robes.jpg)

That’s right, those who firmly agreed with [Ginny’s](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/ginny-weasley) assessment that Ron’s robes were ‘ghastly’ were incredulous that [Harry](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/harry-potter) had let his friend wear them at all.

Like __Stephanie Marcum__, who had some strong feelings about it: *‘Harry did Ron dirty here. Harry is literally a millionaire. He could easily have bought new dress robes for Ron but instead chose to let him wear those and look like a dork’.*

On the surface, it does seem baffling that Harry didn’t just buy him some better robes. Ron’s were second-hand and out of fashion. However, we think it’s a bit more complicated than that.

Ron was a proud person, but he was also self-conscious about his [family’s](/fact-file/magical-miscellany/the-weasleys) financial situation and struggled with feelings of being overshadowed. Harry was fully aware of this. He knew that Ron might have been insulted if he just bought him some brand-new robes as he would have found it condescending.

After all, Ron only accepted an expensive pair of [Omnioculars](/fact-file/objects/omnioculars) because Harry told him not to expect another Christmas present for at least a decade. If anything, Harry was being sensitive to Ron’s feelings – that makes him a good friend.

here-are-all-of-your-most-controversial-yule-ball-hot-takes-text-section-4

## Pink or blue? You had thoughts on Hermione’s outfit too

![HP-F4-goblet-of-fire-hermione-krum-dancing-happy-yule-ball-web-landscape](//contentful.harrypotter.com/usf1vwtuqyxm/2wnXcpgEh3dq6DOJmimEY7/f5cb7ab34b35f128072630173a5dc919/HP-F4-goblet-of-fire-hermione-krum-dancing-happy-yule-ball-web-landscape)

The other outfit that had everybody talking – but for all the right reasons – was [Hermione’s](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/hermione-granger). Or should we say *outfits*? Yes, the belle of the Yule Ball’s dress from the film did not match her dress from the book. It seems that some of you have some strong opinions about that…

Such as __Mary Main__ who was definitely team pink dress: *‘The costume department was right to put Hermione in a pink dress. If her dress was blue (like it was in the books), she would have blended in with the icy decorations and not stood out visually’.*

__Mary__ does make an excellent case and Hermione’s dress did add a pop of warmth to the wintry Great Hall – but we just can’t choose! Both gowns were stunning in their own way… we’re going to sit firmly on the fence for this one.

here-are-all-of-your-most-controversial-yule-ball-hot-takes-text-section-5

## The Patil twins should have had better dress robes

![WB F4 ParvatiAndPadmaPatil PatilTwinsAtYuleBall HP4D-15295](//contentful.harrypotter.com/usf1vwtuqyxm/71NjSO9BVCYySMcK6AQMSo/9e0187bcb6937d6ac7e2ec4d700ca7c6/WB_F4_ParvatiAndPadmaPatil_PatilTwinsAtYuleBall_HP4D-15295.jpg)

There was an overwhelming sense that the Patil twins were hard done by when it came to their Yule Ball experience – they deserved more.

__Jo Schendel__ wanted more for the twins’ Yule Ball look: *‘Padma and Parvati Patils' dresses in the movie were sooo plain. Saris are much more elaborate and pretty’.*

Honestly? We adored the gorgeous shades of pink and orange that [Parvati](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/parvati-patil) and [Padma](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/padma-patil-fact-file) wore in the films. Yet, we’d also love to see how their outfits could be taken to the next level with the help of a few magical details.

here-are-all-of-your-most-controversial-yule-ball-hot-takes-text-section-6

## And better dates 

![fact-file-here-padma-yule-ball-hp-f4](//contentful.harrypotter.com/usf1vwtuqyxm/69qPdK2su351DQANY4gX3q/58aa38f826062eaabc5925adab408836/fact-file-here-padma-yule-ball-hp-f4.jpg)

That wasn’t __Jo’s__ only frustration with the sisters’ experience. She also took umbrage with *‘their treatment at the hands of their "dates"’.*

Harry and Ron messed up here. They were too busy being stuck in their own heads to make the most of a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Even if there was no romantic spark with their dates, they still could have had a joy-filled evening as friends.

__Anthony Tom__ is one fan who agrees with this: *‘I think Harry should have just had a fun night with Parvati instead of being depressed that he couldn’t go with Cho’.*

Absolutely! With music, dancing and fantastic company, deciding to sulk the entire time is a baffling choice. It wasn’t Parvati or Padma’s fault that Harry and Ron’s romantic dreams had been dashed and honestly, they were both being rather immature about it all.

## Speaking of dates… you had thoughts about who Harry went with

![HP-F4-goblet-fire-cho-cedric-walking-into-yule-ball-together-happy-web-landscape](//contentful.harrypotter.com/usf1vwtuqyxm/7Gg3rW3wpho401kh28ueXG/2ce6bdeb293a9f962407b31ab38c3c2b/HP-F4-goblet-fire-cho-cedric-walking-into-yule-ball-together-happy-web-landscape)

Most fans seemed to agree that Harry and Parvati were not the ideal match and had some alternative suggestions…

__Andrew Llewellyn Collins__ told us: *‘Harry should have taken Ginny to the ball. It would have given Ron an actual reason to be angry towards him’.*

Well, we know __Andrew__ was firmly ‘Team Harry’ during his *Goblet of Fire* fight with Ron.

Anyway, with Harry and Ginny’s loving marriage and three kids, we agree with this Yule Ball pairing… but not with the reasoning! We found it far too stressful when Harry and Ron were at each other’s throats and would not like to have it happen again – thank-you-very-much.

here-are-all-of-your-most-controversial-yule-ball-hot-takes-text-section-8

## And Hermione

![HP-F4-hermione-annoyed-harry-yule-ball-web-landscape](//contentful.harrypotter.com/usf1vwtuqyxm/6Raz2V9eDqI8xEIDHen8rm/14d17bf5f2601b80656a119de9a932a0/HP-F4-hermione-annoyed-harry-yule-ball-web-landscape.png)

With Ron and Hermione’s jealousy-fuelled argument revealing hidden feelings, many saw the Yule Ball as a turning point in their relationship. This was the moment we released that they might be more than just friends.

__Dave Tullio__ had a different perspective though. He believed: *‘Hermione never lit up for Ron the way she did for Viktor Krum’.*

When you compare the difference between how Ron and [Krum](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/viktor-krum) handled the Yule Ball, we can see why he might think this. Viktor Krum took notice of Hermione. He danced with her and made her laugh. He didn’t make her feel like an afterthought. Whereas Ron overlooked Hermione until it was too late and then allowed his jealousy to cast a cloud over her brilliant evening.

Having said that, this was one, small, turbulent moment in Ron and Hermione’s story. There were far more that showed the love and loyalty they had for one another. We’re thrilled that Hermione had a wonderful time with Krum at the dance… but we’re more thrilled that it gave Harry’s best friends the nudge they needed to see each other in a whole new light.

here-are-all-of-your-most-controversial-yule-ball-hot-takes-text-section-9

## Some of you questioned whether there should have been dates at all!  

![WB-HP-F4-harry-parvati-dance-yule-ball](//contentful.harrypotter.com/usf1vwtuqyxm/1mWIxfE1mgARGU9pWY7qlK/083c29a2c1a6fa694aade6ccb768201d/WB-HP-F4-harry-parvati-dance-yule-ball.jpg)

As teenagers, the mere thought of asking someone to be our date would cause us to break out in a cold sweat. Growing up is embarrassing enough! Who needs that added pressure? 

__Canisha Russ__ would agree, sharing her view that: ‘*Making the champions find dates because they have to open the ball with a dance is a form of bullying on the school's part* 😂’.

While that approach would have saved Harry (and all of us) from his mortifying ‘Wangoballwime’ moment… the Yule Ball wouldn’t have been the same without the magic of romance.

How to throw your own Yule Ball

## First, you need to find your Yule Ball inspiration

The event of the century doesn’t just happen. Without a clear vision, your party is guaranteed to be a damp *[Squib](/fact-file/magical-miscellany/squibs)*. Which is why we think you should look to *Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire* for inspiration. Specifically, the stunning soiree that took place on Christmas Day – the [Yule Ball](/fact-file/magical-miscellany/yule-ball)…

<iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube-nocookie.com/embed/rLoFNXNXZHc?rel=0" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen></iframe>

As you can see, it’s the perfect festive theme! If you are still trying to figure out your Yule Ball vibe, from the fairies in the rose bushes to the blanket of sparkling silver frost in the [Great Hall](/fact-file/locations/the-great-hall), there’s inspiration to be found in the pages of the fourth book too.

![Scholastic-Goblet-of-Fire-Illustration-The-Yule-Ball](//contentful.harrypotter.com/usf1vwtuqyxm/2KsbTf5SI72ccsdiwmFbz2/9db7f2afe5ea64d3f18f6872e1520ff6/9781546154419_03__1___1_.jpg)

With frosty blue and purple tones, the *[Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (Interactive Illustrated Edition)](https://www.harrypotter.com/linkout?destination=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.scholastic.com%2Fharrypotter%3Futm_source%3Dwwd_web%26utm_medium%3Dnewsarticle%26utm_campaign%3DScholastic%26utm_content%3Dyule-ball-editorial-gift-guide-2025)* captures the Yule Ball’s enchanting mix of grandeur, beauty and Christmas – an excellent starting point for your party mood board. \**

## Dazzle with your decorations…
Now that you have settled on your festive theme, it’s time to bring it to life with your décor. For an event this grand? It can’t be anything less than stunning. 

You see, the Yule Ball happened during a time where all eyes were on [Hogwarts](/fact-file/locations/hogwarts). Everything that the visitors from [Beauxbatons](/fact-file/locations/beauxbatons-academy) and [Durmstrang](/fact-file/locations/durmstrang-institute) saw, helped to shape their opinion of Hogwarts and its residents. This had to be a party that nobody would forget…

![WB F4 Yule Ball Professor Flitwick Christmas HP4D-14922](//contentful.harrypotter.com/usf1vwtuqyxm/2PqxPMpnpKqoMYkcgAsEKC/6f562eed0e669f7f59f4dd6f3f2c1ce5/WB_F4_Yule_Ball_Professor_Flitwick_Christmas_HP4D-14922.jpg)

… Hogwarts delivered.

The Great Hall was transformed into a winter wonderland with magic in every detail. With a bit of imagination and a dash of creativity – you can do the same too.

### Let it snow

‘The walls of the Hall had all been covered in sparkling silver frost, with hundreds of garlands of mistletoe and ivy crossing the starry black ceiling.’

EXCERPT-HP-B4-great-hall-yule-ball-decorations

how-to-throw-your-own-yule-ball-text-section-3

Once again, the fourth book is an excellent starting point. We admit that having access to magic would make creating a wintry landscape indoors easier (we’re not expecting you to carpet your living room in fake snow), but with a few carefully chosen decorations, you can easily achieve the same vibe.

If you’re feeling crafty, you could forage for some festive foliage to recreate the Yule Ball garlands. Or hang a few well-placed sprigs of mistletoe – which we’re sure will be free of Nargles – to add a bit of romance. Why not channel your primary school days and rustle up some paper snowflakes? You could scatter them like snowdrifts or use a bit of string to make them seem like a flurry.

![harry-potter-show-snow-globe-pin-web-landscape](//contentful.harrypotter.com/usf1vwtuqyxm/KPit9pdJooEuudjyrQfo6/8d95e640c2cf1119afc31405c1aed0fb/harry-potter-show-snow-globe-pin-web-landscape.png)

A carefully chosen snow globe pin would help to lean into the feeling of bringing the outside in. This gorgeous depiction of a [snowy Hogwarts from the Harry Potter Shop](https://www.harrypotter.com/linkout?destination=https%3A%2F%2Fharrypottershop.co.uk%2Fproducts%2Fhogwarts-in-the-snow-exclusive-pin-badge%3Futm_source%3Dwwd_web%26utm_medium%3Dnewsarticle%26utm_campaign%3DShop%26utm_content%3Dyule-ball-editorial-gift-guide-2025) would add that extra wintry touch. \*

![harry-potter-shop-hogwart-in-snow-collection-web-landscape](//contentful.harrypotter.com/usf1vwtuqyxm/4XchadUKPToldg7cR5BGl4/497991406037986393940fcd5fa1223e/harry-potter-shop-hogwart-in-snow-collection-web-landscape.png)

In fact, we think their entire [Hogwarts in the Snow collection](https://www.harrypotter.com/linkout?destination=https%3A%2F%2Fharrypottershop.co.uk%2Fcollections%2Fholiday%3Futm_source%3Dwwd_web%26utm_medium%3Dnewsarticle%26utm_campaign%3DShop%26utm_content%3Dyule-ball-editorial-gift-guide-2025) would brilliantly match your Yule Ball vibe. \*

### Lumos!
With fairy lights (and actual fairies), hundreds of flickering lanterns and the twinkling stars of the Great Hall ceiling, so much of the Yule Ball’s enchanting atmosphere was due to the lighting.

![pixie-light-web-header](//contentful.harrypotter.com/usf1vwtuqyxm/2PxdvMf6NQOZog4it0eQnu/59f1163be6bc978959e89fbd50660147/pixxx.png)

Luckily, from [creating floating candles](https://www.harrypotter.com/features/paper-candles-for-christmas-crafting-with-paperboyo) to making [Cornish Pixie light-up jars](https://www.harrypotter.com/features/make-your-own-cornish-pixie-light-up-jar), we’ve got a whole host of crafty ideas to help you illuminate your party.

## Yule shall go to the ball
It wouldn’t be a party without people! It was a meaningful moment when witches and wizards from all over joined together to celebrate Christmas and international magical cooperation. As it's the season of goodwill, now is the ideal time to embrace this mentality when creating your guest list. Your Yule Ball could be an opportunity to reconnect and celebrate with your friends, family and community. 

While that’s all very lovely, there is one other (possibly awkward) element when it comes to wondering who to invite to your party. The Yule Ball is a dance. A dance where you need a partner. A dance where you need… a date. For some of the Harry Potter characters that proved to be *quite* the challenge.

<iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube-nocookie.com/embed/8-yuHqqDMBo?rel=0" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen></iframe>

Okay, for [Harry](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/harry-potter) and [Ron](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/ron-weasley) it was absolutely mortifying! However, don’t panic, if you channel the confidence of [Fred](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/fred-weasley) or [Hagrid’s](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/rubeus-hagrid) warm-heartedness, you’ll have better luck.

Plus, the romance of the Yule Ball is also what makes it special. The possibilities. The butterflies in your tummy. Seeing someone in a whole new light. You never know, this could be the opportunity to tell your crush how you feel and begin your own epic love story.

how-to-throw-your-own-yule-ball-text-section-6

## Dress to impress

The Yule Ball was a formal event and an extremely glamorous one at that. As the dress code made clear, everyone was expected to wear their finest dress robes. While there were some fashion faux-pas – Ron’s monstrosity of maroon, lace and the aroma of his great-aunt Tessie – there were some style sensations too.

![HP-F4-goblet-of-fire-hermione-krum-dancing-happy-yule-ball-web-landscape](//contentful.harrypotter.com/usf1vwtuqyxm/2wnXcpgEh3dq6DOJmimEY7/f5cb7ab34b35f128072630173a5dc919/HP-F4-goblet-of-fire-hermione-krum-dancing-happy-yule-ball-web-landscape)

Who could forget the most iconic look of them all? [Hermione Granger](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/hermione-granger) was the belle of the Yule Ball in her stunning dress robes. She was brave enough to step out of her comfort zone and try something new. Taking inspiration from her Yule Ball aesthetic seems like a wise choice to us. 

Speaking of which, if your Yule Ball is set to include the little witches and wizards in your life, [Taylor Joelle has a Hermione-inspired dress for children](https://www.harrypotter.com/linkout?destination=https%3A%2F%2Ftaylorjoelle.com%2Fproducts%2Fthe-hermione-yule-ball-dress%3Fsrsltid%3DAfmBOopF2Cxou0MPViG5XEVukq27U0eUJ61Us2dMwzS9x1FL0_fPOBRv%26utm_source%3Dwwd_web%26utm_medium%3Dnewsarticle%26utm_campaign) which would work brilliantly. \**

### Other wizarding fashionistas 

If Hermione’s dress isn’t quite your style, there are plenty of other witches and wizards who you could be your Yule Ball muse.

![CedricDiggory WB F4 Cedric Fleur Viktor Group shot Promo 080615 Land](//contentful.harrypotter.com/usf1vwtuqyxm/4cCejSpias8OqA2q4asOeq/c41faebe86059556bac67557679f1055/CedricDiggory_WB_F4_CedricFleurViktorGroupshot_Promo_080615_Land.jpg)

Like the [Triwizard](/fact-file/magical-miscellany/triwizard-tournament) champions, whose outfits were the perfect fit for their personalities. [Fleur’s](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/fleur-delacour) graceful gown wonderfully reflected her elegance. [Cedric](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/cedric-diggory) was dashing and debonair with his bowtie. [Krum](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/viktor-krum) was the picture of strength in showstopping red.

![costumes-of-the-wizarding-world-yule-ball-web-landscape](//contentful.harrypotter.com/usf1vwtuqyxm/4YOxEgH7wjQ5xSW4LZ9uNL/9b60b3ea2028380ca9f95ff26b457e6d/costumes-of-the-wizarding-world-yule-ball-web-landscape.png)

And that’s just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to Yule Ball fashion. If you [pick up a copy of *Harry Potter: Costumes of the Wizarding World*](https://www.harrypotter.com/linkout?destination=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.com%2Fdp%2FB0DV4NSGGW%3Ftag%3Dusalinktagdefault-20%26th%3D1%26psc%3D1%26geniuslink%3Dtrue%26utm_source%3Dwwd_web%26utm_medium%3Dnewsarticle%26utm_campaign%3DCP%26utm_content%3Dyule-ball-editorial-gift-guide-2025), you’ll find a whole host of wonderful wizarding outfits to help inspire your own unique look and make your Yule Ball outfit a winner. \**

### Beauty magic

![profusion-cosmetics-harry-potter-holiday-collection-lifestyle-web-landscape](//contentful.harrypotter.com/usf1vwtuqyxm/1zypD4yEd4pLKmABqyQMqu/dd21e2ad1fa02f1dc9aac5ff446469c9/profusion-cosmetics-harry-potter-holiday-collection-lifestyle-web-landscape.png)

Like Hermione using copious amount of [Sleekeazy’s Hair Potion](/fact-file/plants-and-potions/sleekeazys-hair-potion), you also appreciate how beauty products can help elevate your party style. You might not be able to use the same magical concoction, but this new [Harry Potter holiday collection by Profusion Cosmetics](https://www.harrypotter.com/linkout?destination=https%3A%2F%2Fprofusioncosmetics.com%2Fcollections%2F%F0%9F%8E%84harry-potter-holiday%3Futm_source%3Dwwd_web%26utm_medium%3Dnewsarticle%26utm_campaign%3DCP%26utm_content%3Dyule-ball-editorial-gift-guide-2025) can help you to create your own magical Christmas look. \**

![roja-london-perfume-yule-ball-gift-guide-web-v3](//contentful.harrypotter.com/usf1vwtuqyxm/6Fz5ab6jeQeQh0R1VLpolQ/e8d6578d639402aec36fd102153c3a48/roja-london-perfume-yule-ball-gift-guide-web-v3.png)

Interestingly, there’s also a beauty lesson to be learnt from Ron – nobody wants to go to a party smelling like their great-aunt Tessie. Luckily, that mortification is easily avoided with a carefully chosen perfume from the [Harry Potter collection by ROJA London](https://www.harrypotter.com/linkout?destination=https%3A%2F%2Frojalondon.com%2Fpages%2Fmagic-of-perfume%3Futm_source%3Dwwd_web%26utm_medium%3Dnewsarticle%26utm_campaign%3DCP%26utm_content%3Dyule-ball-editorial-gift-guide-2025) that leaves you smelling delightful rather than dreadful.\**

how-to-throw-your-own-yule-ball-text-section-7

## Add musical magic and dance the night away…

There can be no dancing without music! In *Goblet of Fire*, the famous wizarding rock band, The Weird Sisters, were the headline act of the Yule Ball. A brilliant choice as they were very popular when Harry was at Hogwarts – [Ginny](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/ginny-weasley) even had their poster on her wall!

![pottermore-moments-yule-ball-collection-page-hero](//contentful.harrypotter.com/usf1vwtuqyxm/5Z2awXELUPde0RguE7BXCE/ee188241d00b5cb59887fda5ba34e6d7/pottermore-moments-yule-ball-collection-page-hero.jpg)

Having music that everyone enjoys is a fantastic idea though. When considering what to play at your party, you could ask all your guests for their favourite song and create a playlist which is guaranteed to get them up on the dancefloor! 

Or if you are going for a more formal vibe, you could have everyone waltz to the incredible score from the Harry Potter films.

![WB-HP-F4-harry-parvati-dance-yule-ball](//contentful.harrypotter.com/usf1vwtuqyxm/1mWIxfE1mgARGU9pWY7qlK/083c29a2c1a6fa694aade6ccb768201d/WB-HP-F4-harry-parvati-dance-yule-ball.jpg)

On that note, you could pick your own Triwizard champions and challenge them to recreate the opening Yule Ball dance. Or have a dance-off inspired by the arrival of Beauxbatons and Durmstrang at Hogwarts… the possibilities are endless.

Most importantly… don’t forget to have fun.
