March is here and, just like the Pokemon GO calendar, Harry Potter Wizards Unite players are also in for a very busy month. The first week has been relatively quiet so far, but the excitement starts this week with a casual Spotlight Event that offers some boosted Foundable opportunities during a low stakes celebration.
The Boosted Event is considered a bit more casual by fans because it doesn't come along with a list of timed tasks to power through like just about every other Harry Potter Wizards Unite event at this point. That doesn't mean that it won't be fun or exciting though.

The event begins Friday morning and runs through Monday morning and offers players a chance to enjoy some nice bonuses over the first weekend of March. In addition to the other bonuses, players can find a long list of Boosted Foundables including some fan favorite characters like Dumbledore, Newt, Hagrid, and Quidditch Captain Harry...
March 5th, 2021 at 11:00 a.m. Pacific through March 8th, 2021 at 11:00 a.m. Pacific

Because there is no list of tasks and rewards for players to worry about, there isn't a whole lot of planning or strategy players need to think about heading into the weekend. It wouldn't hurt to review Registry pages and figure out which Foundables are the highest priority for a particular collection, but in general players should be able to just casually login and play however they would like throughout the short event.
The rest of March should bring additional events with a lot more tasks for players to worry about with a coming two-part Brilliant Event, Adversary events, and of course another Community Day event. Fans of the game should stay tuned as more details about those events arrive and Game Rant is able to detail the full list of tasks and rewards for each of them in the coming weeks.
If any additional bonuses or rewards are revealed, we’ll be sure to post an update. Be sure to check back in the comings days for more Wizards Unite strategy guides, news, and updates. Until then, keep your wands at the ready!
