Harry Potter returns to King's Cross for Christmas with magical tree and sweet shop

The Chosen One has returned to King’s Cross Station - but this time it’s ok if he misses the train.

The Boy Who Lived has returned to London - and we’re not talking about the new TV show.

Harry Potter has made a triumphant return to King’s Cross Station this Christmas with a magical tree and sweet shop.

Fans of the Boy Wizard will be able to immerse themselves in a world of Bertie Bots Every Flavour Beans, Chocolate Frogs and more as the Honey Dukes tree takes centre stage at the busy train station.

Found just across from the famous Platform 9 3/4 trolley and Harry Potter shop, this year’s tree pays homage to the role King’s Cross plays in the books and films.

The magical tree is 31 ft tall, making it roughly the same height as two and three-quarters Hagrids.

King’s Cross Station has become a mecca for Potterheads across the globe, who are hoping to live out their dream of catching the Hogwarts Express.

The tree boasts many magical features, including an Owl Post room being run under Hedwig’s watchful eye, Olivander’s wand shop and of course, Honey Dukes sweet shop.

Honey Dukes stocks all your favourite magical treats from chocolate frogs to liquorice wands and Bertie Bott’s Every Flavour Beans.
