Animal Crossing: New Horizons’ May Day Event returns April 29th and ends May 7th, 2021.
Experience a brand new island maze (and perhaps run into Rover once more) in this fun, in-game event.
ATTENTION: You must speak to Orville at your island’s airport in order to collect a May Day Ticket and travel to the event island.
The Event
What is May Day?
May Day is a special event in Animal Crossing: New Horizons for the Nintendo Switch.
- Players must first collect a ticket to travel to a unique island.
- The Island is set up like a maze and tasks players with traversing the fun maze by utilizing tools and items provided.
Honestly, this is one of the most fun special events all year long and you can only take part in it once per year. Don’t miss out on it!
You also don’t want to miss out on the rewards.
May Day 2020 rewards included multiple Bell vouchers located around the island as well as a special furniture item from Rover, one of Animal Crossing’s fan favorite characters.
Although this year’s rewards are still a mystery, it pays to play.
Returning Players Rejoice
Nintendo promises this year’s island will be different from last year’s so both new and returning players will be able to enjoy this update.
The Tweet
The Official Nintendo Twitter account made the announcement on April 26th.
