Universal Orlando just announced a NEW limited-time event, and it’s one that fans of Harry Potter won’t want to miss.
Universal Orlando
Both Universal Orlando Resort and Universal Studios Hollywood are celebrating BUTTERBEER SEASON this spring! What exactly IS Butterbeer Season, you might ask? Let’s get into it.
Universal said that Butterbeer Season offers guests “a chance to enjoy Butterbeer in all-new ways within The Wizarding World of Harry Potter.” The celebration begins March 15th and only lasts through April 30th, so you’ll have to hurry and plan your trip soon!
Butterbeer
In case you’re not familiar with Butterbeer, this is a drink that’s featured in the Harry Potter books, and it’s been offered in Universal’s Harry Potter-themed parks for a while now. You can get it hot, cold, or frozen, and there are also Butterbeer-flavored treats like fudge and ice cream.

During Butterbeer Season, Universal will introduce some NEW Butterbeer treats, like “an ice lolly which features the rich palate-pleasing Butterbeer flavor in popsicle form” and Butterbeer caramels. Also, you’ll be able to get cold or frozen Butterbeer in a “special collectible silver stein.”
