## Story

NEW YORK, Aug. 10, 2026 // PRNewswire // -- Tim Hortons restaurants in the United States will offer Harry Potter-themed items starting Aug. 12 to commemorate Back to Hogwarts and the 25th anniversary of the Tim Hortons brand.

"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.

"We're bringing the magic of Harry Potter to life 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."

Here's a look at the Harry Potter magic coming to your local Tims starting Aug. 12:

Donuts are offered with themes tied to Hogwarts Houses, and the lineup includes a Golden Snitch Caramel Timbits item and a Timbits Holder.

The Patronus-inspired beverage options are served in a limited-edition cup that reveals a trail of Patronuses when filled.

Limited-edition Harry Potter-themed packaging is used for select items, while supplies last. Packaging formats include Mystery Boxes, multi-pack donut boxes, Timbits boxes, and cold beverage cups.
