- This is the main article for Special Occasions. For the category, see Category:Special Occasions.
Special Occasions occur at various times throughout the year in My Singing Monsters. These events only last for a specified period of time and usually correlate with a real-world holiday. The duration of each special occasion usually lasts about a month around the specific holiday. Currently, there are six known holiday celebrations in the game: Spooktacle, Festival of Yay, Season of Love, Eggs-Travaganza, SummerSong, and Feast-Ember. One other special event not involving a real-world holiday is the game's anniversary, celebrated during the Anniversary Month Celebration.
During Special Occasions, unique and elusive Seasonal Monsters as well as their Rare/Epic versions are available to buy or breed, they will also be 50% off on Seasonal Shanty. After the holiday is over, any Seasonal Monsters the player obtained will stay on their respective island(s), but cannot be bred until the next holiday.
Another feature of Special Occasions is unique themes. When a celebration occurs, its corresponding island is decorated for that holiday. Among the changes in the theme, there are often decorations around the rim of the island, changes in the lighting and color scheme, and different ambient sounds. In addition to changing its theme, there are also decorated Obstacles exclusive to its island as well as Seasonal Decorations available on all islands. For the Spooktacle and Festival of Yay holidays, monsters may also wear Costumes. As part of the Anniversary Month Celebration, Gold Island is adorned with Anniversary decorations. Wublin Island and Celestial Island remain the only two islands not to be affected by costume or holiday.
This page lists every change that occurs during all of the above cited festivities, including minor details such as new icons in the Map or different Obstacle types as well as their dates.
