Where in the Wizarding World of Harry Potter can you find the Golden Snitch? One of the things I absolutely love about the Wizarding World of Harry Potter theme park is that no matter how many times I’ve visited, I always discover something new. During my last visit, I found at least three things that I’d missed during my previous visits to the park.
The first of these that I’ll be discussing is the Golden Snitch.
“The Golden Snitch, sometimes called simply the Snitch, is the fourth ball used in Quidditch. It is a small gold-coloured sphere with wings and is about the size of a walnut. It flies around the Quidditch field at high speeds, sometimes pausing and hovering in place. The Seeker’s goal is to catch the Snitch before the other team’s seeker, which is worth one-hundred and fifty points. The game can only end when the Snitch has been caught, or by mutual agreement of the two teams’ Captains; the latter is very rare, however, as one team would have to lose.” — The Harry Potter Wiki
So, where in the Wizarding World of Harry Potter theme park can you find the Golden Snitch? Well, first, you need to find the quidditch ball set, shown above. Your quest doesn’t end with this ornate box, however as you’ll see that it’s missing the Golden Snitch! Look carefully, you’ll find it…although it took me visiting the Harry Potter park about a dozen times before I noticed it. 🙂
