Hogwarts Treasures and How to get more Pickaxes

The Harry Potter Go season really takes off with the start of Hogwarts Treasures which kicks off at 12 PM ET on December 17th and runs for just over four days until 3 PM ET on December 21st 2025, Hogwarts Treasures on Monopoly GO is a 25 level dig event where there are a total of 5,450 dice to be won as well as a new Hogwarts Crest shield skin, and both blue and purple sticker packs as well as various other sticker packs and game cast rewards.

Dig events are a great opportunity to end up with more dice than you started with, as long as you play the main events where you get the pickaxes carefully and don't waste dice. My recommendation is to play steadily with a low multiplier as there is less risk of dice loss.

In banner events and tournaments, pay attention to where there are milestones that give you pickaxes and also, remember that you may want to push harder in one of the leaderboard tournaments during the dig event in order to secure one of the top spots to gain a big heap of dice from the final leaderboard rewards which will help you come out of the four days of this event with more dice than you started with plus some stickers.

We break it all down in the rewards and milestones table below which lists all rewards that can be won on each level as well as the minimum number of pickaxes needed to complete each level.

How to get more pickaxes for Hogwarts Treasures

As with any dig events, you'll need a tool, and whether this is pickaxes or laser guns, here are the best ways to get more!

• Banner Events and Tournaments - The events that run at the same time as Candy Land treasures will be where you can accumulate the majority of your pickaxes. Find out at which milestones they are located for each event by heading to our daily events schedule, and clicking through to the current active and forthcoming individual banner event and tournament pages where we list all of the rewards and milestones.
• Quick Wins - While the dig event is running, you can get some more pickaxes every day from Quick Wins, there are not so many to be won via this method, but being consistent and grabbing all of the free pickaxes from Quick Wins every day does add up to a decent stack and could mean the difference between completing the event or not.
• Eight Hourly Free Shop Gift - Remember to collect your free shop gift every eight hours. While the dig event is running, the gift pack will also include some free pickaxes.
• Tycoon Club - Head to the Tycoon club while this event is on to pick up free rewards which could include pickaxes while this dig event is running. Check back in the club every 24 hours for more rewards.
• In the dig event - Some levels in this dig event also give you free pickaxes, see the rewards table above for full details.
• Free pickaxe links - From time to time these pop up, and if any do, we'll add them to our free dice links page.

Use these pickaxes to dig for treasure in the event, uncover everything in a level to win the reward and move onto the next one.

How many pickaxes will I need to Finish Hogwarts Treasures?

It's difficult to say exactly how many pickaxes will be needed to complete Hogwarts Treasures but based on previous events of the same size as knowing the minimum number of pickaxes needed, my estimate is that I'll need somewhere in the region of at least 350 pickaxes to complete this event.

What is the minimum number of pickaxes needed to complete this event?

It looks like the minimum number of pickaxes needed will be around 303, although that number is just a rough guide as it does not take into account finding gophers on the board that may clear part of the game board and also how many double hit tiles that you may need to break to find objects. So this is quite a rough number. You’ll probably need around 350 or more pickaxes to complete this event.

Are there any Hogwarts Treasures pickaxe links?

Normally, there are no free pickaxe links. If we spot any however, you'll be able to find them on our free dice links page, which is a page we update every day with the latest free dice links to get you some extra free rolls in the game. These links are distributed by Scopely, and all are tested by us before we publish them on our website to make sure that they work and are legitimate links.

Hogwarts Treasures event tips and strategy

We've been playing all of the similar digging events in Monopoly such as Moonlight Treasures and Galactic Treasures, so have had the time to work out the best ways to give you the best chance to complete this event, here's what we've got.

• Check the milestone lists of events and tournaments

  It's really important to check the milestones list of the solo milestone event and tournament that is running at the same time as Hogwarts Treasures, you can do this by heading to our daily events schedule to get a link to the current events to view their rewards and milestones list. This allows you to work out how far you should go in each of the events before it starts to get too difficult for you to get pickaxes. Having a plan by looking at these rewards lists can be really helpful. Remember to check the start and end dates for these events because usually you can have two or three tournaments which last for one day each, and only one solo milestone event which may last two or three days, so you may want to plan to stagger progress in the solo event and spread over the two or three tournaments that run over that time.

• Don't waste your guesses

  Pay attention to the sizes of the items that you need to find in the game and only click on locations on the board that the remaining items will actually fit. Some boards, depending on the size of the object to be found will just require one logical guess in order to pinpoint it's location.

• Use the Checkerboard technique

  If you are unsure where to start with your guesses, one suggestion is to use the checkerboard technique, so you leave a gap of one square between guesses, like a checkerboard. Some items that you need to find however are 1x1 so that technique won't work to find those!

• Things can be rotated

  Remember that the items that you need to find can be rotated horizontally or vertically.

• The moles will help

  The moles are great at helping you save some digs, there is no good way to find them, so just try to get lucky.
