Tim Hortons launches a magical Harry Potter Tim Hortons celebration across Canada (and select parts of the United States) with Hogwarts House donuts, Golden Snitch Timbits, and merch!

Attention all wizards, witches, and muggles alike! Starting August 12, participating Tim Hortons restaurants are officially embracing the magic of the Wizarding World. In celebration of the annual Back to Hogwarts season and the 25th anniversary of the beloved brand, Tim Hortons has teamed up with the Harry Potter franchise for a spellbinding limited-time collection featuring house-themed donuts, Golden Snitch Timbits, specialty drinks, color-changing merchandise, and exclusive packaging.

The Harry Potter Tim Hortons menu is launching on August 12, 2026. However, it is primarily rolling out across Canada, with only select U.S. border or specific locations (like Johns Creek, Georgia) carrying the promotion.

“Harry Potter has been a beloved part of so many of our guests’ lives for decades and we couldn’t be more excited for guests to discover the wizarding world at Tims restaurants,” said Hope Bagozzi, chief marketing officer for Tim Hortons. “We’re exclusively bringing the magic of Harry Potter to QSR in true Tims fashion — from donuts inspired by each Hogwarts House, to a Golden Snitch Timbit® and Timbit holder, spellbinding Patronus and Forbidden Forest inspired drinks, and limited-edition merch that guests will want to collect and share.”

“Harry Potter has been a beloved part of so many of our guests’ lives for decades and we couldn’t be more excited for guests to discover the wizarding world at Tim Hortons restaurants,” said Katerina Glyptis, president of Tim Hortons U.S.

Hogwarts House Donuts, Mystery Boxes & Golden Snitch Timbits

Whether you belong in bravery, ambition, wisdom, or loyalty, there’s a pastry styled just for you. U.S. guests can choose from four distinct Hogwarts House Donuts:

• Gryffindor Donut: Strawberry Cheesecake Filled Yeast Ring with White Fondant, topped with Strawberry Flavored Bark and a mini-Gryffindor Crest topping.
• Slytherin Donut: Chocolate Filled Yeast Donut with Green Pistachio Spread, topped with Green Crunch pieces and a mini-Slytherin Crest Shield topping.
• Ravenclaw Donut: Blueberry-Filled Yeast Donut with Blue Fondant, topped with Blue Crunch pieces and a mini-Ravenclaw Crest Shield topping.
• Hufflepuff Donut: Lemon Filled Yeast Ring with Yellow Fondant, topped with Meringue Crunch pieces and a mini-Hufflepuff Crest Shield topping.

Can’t decide which house you belong to? Order a Mystery Box (“Your house awaits!”) featuring a mystical surprise with one of the four Hogwarts House donuts, or grab a 4-Pack to celebrate with all four houses in one box. Alongside the house donuts, fan-favorite Timbits get a Golden Snitch upgrade with the Golden Snitch Timbit, a golden caramel-filled yeast Timbit topped with golden sugar and glaze. You can also pick up a collectible Golden Snitch Holder to keep your treats safe.

Quench your thirst with spellbinding cold beverages served in a temperature-activated, color-changing cup. When filled with cold liquid, the special cup reveals a glowing trail of Patronuses.

• Patronus Sparkling Beverage: Blueberry Raspberry flavored syrup on a sparkling water base, topped with cold foam.
• Forbidden Forest Iced Tea: Blueberry Raspberry flavored syrup mixed with iced tea, creating a mysterious drink with a color that resembles the Forbidden Forest where Harry first used the Patronus charm—featuring a surprising and delightful fruity flavor.

Guests can also pick up a Color-Changing Stir Wand that turns blue when activated by cold beverages to mimic casting the Patronus Charm.

Harry Potter Tim Hortons: Limited-Edition Packaging, Merchandise & Trivia Night

The magic doesn’t stop at the food. Select orders will be served in limited-edition Harry Potter x Tim Hortons packaging packed with hidden Easter eggs for eagle-eyed fans across single-item donut boxes, multi-packs, 10/20-pack Timbits boxes, and cold cups.

Additionally, participating restaurants will offer limited-edition “25 Years of Magic” gift cards, and on August 28, select locations will host an in-store Harry Potter Trivia Night to kick off the Back to Hogwarts festivities.
