TBT is celebrating the start of the Year of the Horse! Our latest event, TBT's Lunar New Year for 2026, is now underway! Meanwhile, we invite you to share your feedback for the forum in the February 2026 Survey. Thank you!
This may be a dumb question, but on the board it says this Sunday there will be fireworks? Is that new? Lol I only remember fireworks being July 4th and New Years.... am I losing my mind?
From the wiki... In New Leaf, the fireworks show takes the same role as in Wild World and City Folk, appearing every Sunday in August, from 7:00PM until Midnight.
Also, I'm pretty sure the 4th of July isn't celebrated in Animal Crossing. I have a North American copy and nothing happened on that day.
Apollo's birthday is on that date, however.
It’s a summer thing! It’s a nice mini event during August, although i guess it can get old real quick since it’s every Sunday. It’s a good time to obtain those firework show items like the lovely phone and miniature car or whatever.
So...do fireworks just replace the fortune cookies for the entire month of August? I am still working on the fortune cookie items (I swear to god if I get another Peach's Parasol or Super Mushroom...) so do I have to take a hiatus until September?
