USJ Fan Badge and Sticker Dates
The announcement artwork features four house badges and a fifth badge hidden behind a question mark. The digital badge window ends Sept. 30.
Universal Studios Japan has not given an end date or distribution location for the sticker in the new announcement. The date matters for guests planning a September visit, but the giveaway details remain limited to the Sept. 2 start.
Hogwarts Castle Walk Runs Through January 17
The Back to Hogwarts schedule starts Sept. 1 with an invitation-only event for selected guests. Separately, Universal Studios Japan has scheduled the Hogwarts Castle Walk for Sept. 1, 2026, through Jan. 17, 2027, at Hogwarts Castle.
The USJ Fan program is Universal Studios Japan's membership service, with digital badges among its member features. The current update adds the Back to Hogwarts badge to that program's September calendar.
