Those clever little colourful bricks that can turn into so many things were infused with the magic of the Wizarding World this past September weekend. Here’s how The LEGO® Group cast a spell on Harry Potter fans for Back to Hogwarts Day and beyond.
At King’s Cross Station
If you were one of the lucky individuals who got to visit King’s Cross Station across the 1st September weekend, you will have spotted many surprises along the way.
The station was awash with Harry Potter magic, including a LEGO® Lord Voldemort, a cute LEGO® Dobby and some incredible moving trunks.
One notable trunk (created by a LEGO® Master Builder) had the magical ability to open and produce LEGO® prizes for the King’s Cross visitors! We only wish our own luggage at home was quite so prolific.
For those who sadly didn’t get the chance to go to King’s Cross, we have a handy catch-up of all the action!
And if you’re interested in how the Hogwarts™ Magical Trunk came together, check out our handy timelapse to see how the magic happens.
