Hello Kitty Island Adventuretakes place on a relaxing island filled with lovable Sanrio characters, but you’ll still be able to participate in a variety of unique and seasonal events that often line up with real-world events (like Halloween!). In total, there are a lot of different events to keep track of.
In this guide, we are going to take a look at every event in Hello Kitty Island Adventure, as well as when it occurs. It’s important to note that the exact date can vary from year to year, but based on the previous year’s event, we can get an estimation of when it will occur for the following year.
What Are Events?
Before diving into all the events in Hello Kitty Island Adventure, let’s go over what they are. Similar to many other live-service games,events are time-limited activities that typically provide new items or materials for you to gather.
During an event, you’ll typically getdaily rewards when you log into the game.For example, when logging in during the Luck and Lanterns Celebration, youcould get relevant clothing items,as well as things likeStrawberry Crates.
Events also typically havetheir own currency.This currency can be obtained through quests, gathering, or speaking with characters. With enough currency,you may even be able to trade it in at a special kiosk near the plaza in the Seaside Resort.
Overall, events can vary, but when it starts,you’ll always get a brief rundown of what is happening.For example, rather than just seeing Lovebugs and a new habitat on the island in February without any explanation, Chococat explained to us that the Hugs and Hearts festivalinvolves capturing these bugs and placing them in the habitat in exchange for themed furniture.
