Days of Sunlight 2024: Relax in the Perfect Sky Kid Playground!

Clear streams, peaceful glades, enchanting wildlife—the golden hillsides of the Hidden Forest are just the place to beat the heat. Starting August 26th, escape to a balmy corner of the realms to make new memories with friends and Spirits during Days of Sunlight!

Tucked in the Elevated Clearing, a band of adventurous Spirits will welcome you to a Sky kid leisure land. Gather with the scouts or with friends around a cozy campfire to enjoy some toasty Light snacks (which will also feed your Candle count). It’s a great spot to share stories, but if you prefer music to words, check with the Spirits to jam together in ensemble mode!

Maybe your ideal afternoon is simply chilling on the water and floating with the sounds of the breeze and the jellyfish? This year, grab a new item that’s the perfect prop for this! Kick back along on a manta-shaped inflatable tube, ready for whichever stream, lake, or ocean you want to relax in. (Use a manta call while honking to really feel like you’re one with nature.)

If you want a more active change of pace though, the Elevated Clearing is your playground! Diving boards and water slides are set up for you to make a splash, and if you look around, you might find some baby jellyfish who could use some help to make their way through the world. Each of the Spirits will be out and about as the event unfolds, and no matter when you drop by, one of them will always be down for a friendly game of tag.

You can wear any outfit you want as you bask in the sunlight, but this year the event is bringing new items to choose from for the perfect souvenir! Gather event currency (six per day!) to unlock that manta float, not to mention a swimming outfit as well. The event also introduces a cape with just the right texture to keep your Sky kid cool in the heat of the sun, plus a pair of earrings inspired by the event’s golden rays, both available in the in-game shop. 

Of course, you can experiment with new and returning cosmetics using trial spells, too. Find additional details in the event patch notes, which we’ll be sharing soon!

Whether paddling and swimming or floating and lounging, Days of Sunlight is a time to enjoy Sky life at a different pace. For two weeks starting August 26th, slow down and delight in what the world has to offer. We’ll see you in the skies!
