EVERY HOLIDAY and EVENT in Animal Crossing Games!

[@HallowIsSmol]

ill always remember my first birthday on my current island in ACNH. i was in the middle of an intense low, and feeling extremely lonely, as it was the first birthday away from most of my family that id ever had, having moved earlier that summer. i had left all my friends behind, and i was miserable. i opened up my game, and i was greeted by Piper, who was my favorite villager in my town at the time. she took me to her house, i did the minigame involved and stuff, and then i went to KK. and that birthday credits sequence... im not ashamed to admit i cried. even if they were just pixels, it felt really good to be appreciated.

[@anonymousnlonely3315]

I hope you’ve moved past that lonely time :)

[@babydollthepuppeteer8295]

This is what makes ACNH such a wholesome game! :3

[@Hail_Capri-Sun]

When people say that I'm addicted to ACNH then that's true. But really I'm just lonely, the game is just heart warming and always cheers me up. Thank you for reading this☺️

[@Milkmouse1966]

Ah the good old acorn festival, where my sister saved up a ton of rotten acorns and then buried them around our town for me to find throughout the rest of the year instead of fossils like I hoped. Classic.

Fun fact: In new horizons you can dress up as Jack (using his robe and pumpkin hat he gives you) and talk to your villagers for candy, however this time they'll get scared and give you candy (like new leaf) This only works once per villager but it's still fun to mess with them

[@LARKXHIN]

I have lots of stuff about New Year's for New Horizons: - The one villager with a birthday on 12/31 won't be at the party bc they'll be at their birthday party. - If you share a birthday and have that villager (Marcel), you can go to his party and the NYE event, but he won't come to yours. - The game did not stop to think that we might like to party with villagers we share a birthday with :(

[@_june101]

I was SO excited to have my birthday twin on my island for my birthday and I was SO LET DOWN

[@saplingarcher7713]

Additional note here about HPP NPCs not recognizing the fact it's your birthday as far as i can tell, and the Airport dodos also don't recognize it's your birthday ether. Which is really sad seeing as Orville in particular won't let you fly when you're flying back from another day because he REALLY wants to see the announcements. Wilbur and the HPP citizens can at least be brushed off as "Oh they don't know because you can't tell them and they didn't hear the announcement for one reason or another" - although it's odd because for starters your Passport has your birthday, which should reasonably be checked by airport staff, and Lottie should probably know your details seeing as she's your boss and hired you.

[@anitxtina]

Noooo!!! I specifically got Ruby on my island because we’re birthday twins. If I’m interpreting this correctly this means she won’t come to my birthday party?

[@_june101]

[@ViperTrixx]

Okay I have to tell you. Festivale is based off Brazil and Caribbean Carnival. A big parade with floats, colourful costumes, and lots of dancing. It's a beautiful and fun parade that we get to enjoy. Caribbean Carinval is in October, but idk when Brazil's is

[@asiriusworm]

"It takes place in February or March, two days before Ash Wednesday... Festivale is based on Mardi Gras, the last day of Carnival, a festive season occurring before Lent" from nookopedia I was confused too bc Pave definitely looks more brazil inspired than Mardi Gras. I live in south la and that's not really the imagery we use lol they could have done a gator with purple/green/yellow for Mardi gras and made pave for Brazils carnival

[@Collato]

Eesh, this video made me realize a lot of things seem so impersonal in ACNH, much like real life nowadays. You're not even given a furniture item from a character, you have to buy it yourself from an online store. I hope in the next game we get more actual events with your villagers and npcs, I would much much MUCH rather have an April Fool's Day like previous games than what ACNH did, I wouldn't even care if you got nothing from the event.

[@Dagnel]

exactly, this is a good way of describing how I feel as well. so many (albeit small) events has just been simplified to "order it from the app" instead of having a get together or talking with the mayor or something.

[@TheRealCardoso]

Damn… as a new ACNH player I’ve always heard the older games were better… now I know why. The sports events looked so cool!

[@Dagnel]

Yeah they were better from the perspective of holidays and dialogue, but it depends on what you enjoy in an AC game. If you like decorating then new ones are definitely better.

[@caracalfloppa4997]

The older games were better in some respects, but they severely lack in content compared to the newer games. Your town decoration and customization options were severely limited and you had little or no item storage. I distinctly recall my city folk town being cluttered with dozens of items that I couldn't fit in my house just lying around on the ground outside. They were definitely fun games, don't get me wrong, but I'm not exactly clamoring to go back to the days where the biggest customization option you had for your town was on the town create screen.

[@theblazingblight]

​@einweitereruser For you. For many others such as myself, New Horizons has been very unique and charming in its own right. So no, it doesn't "suck", it's just different and that change may not be for everyone- which is okay. It also has positive points and some detractors/faults... just like every game.

[@theblazingblight]

@einweitereruser mmm... no. Disagree.

[@scarlettg.5772]

@einweitereruser in your opinion it sucks but in others it doesn’t suck. I’ve played the original, city folk, new leaf, and new horizons. I do have to ask if you’ve played the 2.0 update? As much of the missing content is back. I know it’s still got things missing but it’s pretty well rounded. Could they’ve done better? Yes but it’s got a lot of things right.

[@SpaghettiBrainX]

this video really makes me wish we got some smaller events in new horizons. would really help bring some flavour to the villagers

[@Jay-dn2fc]

As a first time player with NH, I always thought it was weird when people complained about the lack of content in this game, now I know why

[@Maddie-ln5vb]

I recently returned to an older game and I don’t want to go back to NH. I get so bored in New Horizons, but in New Leaf, I can play for hours everyday.

[@BJGvideos]

The funniest things i think New Horizons celebrate are the Super Bowl (called the "Big Game") and the Buñol tomato festival, which is a giant food fight. Both of these are represented via buyable seasonal items but it's still pretty funny.

[@cosygracegames]

[@thenanomon6908]

its so interesting to see what holidays looked like in wild world and city folk. im somewhat of a veteran player in that i grew up playing animal crossing on the gamecube, but i never played wild world (or even knew it existed until long after other games in the series had come out), and only played city folk very sparingly due to having to share the wii with my younger brother who spent a lot of time playing other games. i miss all of the little events that would spice up the day to day in the original animal crossing, though at least happy home paradise gives me plenty to do.

[@ssr8555]

The firework festival is something that Japanese people celebrate every year at the end of Summer. They have a festival with all kinds of stands, including food , Japanese masks and minigames that you can win a price from. Many people dress in traditional Japanese yukata as well, and you can see this in the Japanese version of the gamecube game if I remember correctly. At the end of the festival there is a big firework show. Another fun fact about the Japanese version of the Gamecube game is that on New Year there is no wishing well, rather there is a shrine. This is of course a reference to how Japanese people celebrate New Year. It’s very similar to the wishing well. People throw a coin to the shrine, ring the bell and then pray or wish for something they want form the next year. Edit: sports fair is also a Japanese thing! All the events are something that people do on sports day in school. Like in the game, it happens twice a year. Naturally cherry blossom festival is also a Japanese thing. People in Japan go cherry blossom watching every Spring. Basically a picnic under the sakura trees.

[@JD-ve6kn]

so many magical childhood memories of the Gamecube holidays. man some of its hourly tunes can inspire me to tears

[@Bandicoot720]

There's a Japanese holiday event in New Leaf called Setsuban, you throw beans at demon masked villagers. Bonus prize being a bean box which is good for scaring unwanted fish.

[@akiraofthemoon]

I fondly remember stealing those flowers and decorating my own yard. But the bane of my existence was the fleamarket because I always had a nicely decorated house and it made me cry a lot as a kid lmao

[@nyrualmcdonald9216]

May Day is a real holiday! It's very big in England and its to celebrate the coming of the spring! In the town near me every year hundreds of motorcycles gather on the seafront and on the hills everyone wears green clothes and flowers, gets incredibly wasted and dances until it starts tipping it down. Its my favourite holiday 🎉

I think Festivale is more based on Carnivale which is celebrated in Latin America, but it is very similar to Mardi Gras. May day also has a few traditions throught the world, like a spring festival or a worker's rights day, but Animal Crossing doesn't really do either. As for the fireworks festival, I think it's vaguely reminiscent of the Bon festival in Japan.

Loved this video, thought it might interest you that May Day is an actual holiday in the UK. It is a national day off where you have picnics, do maple dancing as kids (with ribbons and a pole) and morris dancing when you are older (with bells). Lots of fete activities will be held so the hedge maze is a fun animal crossing equivalent!

[@lucy-rd7re]

may day is actually quite a popular holiday here in the uk! i think it tends to happen on may 3rd and most towns hold a mayday fete thingy where there’s food stalls and stuff like that. the main thing about mayday is this thing called the maypole, which is a massive pole with ribbons tied to it, where kids will hold the ribbons and dance around the pole to make patterns and stuff!

[@Midgeria]

May day is also a festival day in Finland. Always on the 1st of May, we eat donuts and funnel cake, drink non-alcoholic mead, have markets, kids get foil balloons and party poppers. Fun fact: May poles are a HUGE midsummers day tradition in Sweden, they dance around it. The rest of the Nordics make huge bonfires.

Hey Dagnel, I know I’m a year late, but I just wanted to express my dismay that Blanca was excluded from ACNH. I started the franchise with New Leaf, so the events in that were the only ones I knew of until I got a switch. My favourite event in New Leaf was April Fools Day with Blanca, I enjoyed going round to my villagers’ houses and playing that game in general was quite fun. I remember when New Horizons came out and everyone was raving about it, I watched the trailer and cried because I thought I couldn’t get a switch. I got money for my birthday a few months later and got the Switch Lite/New Horizons bundle. I do love New Horizons but for me it’s the exclusion of some of the NPCs that I miss.

i played a lot of wild world as a kid and i distinctly remember waking up early on my bday and when i did boot in a random villager would be outside and come up to me say some stuff and give me a gift everyone chipped in to get. idk if this is different but you didnt mention the fact the villagers show up outside your house AND FORCE YOU to speak with them
