The tables are set, the flowers are blooming, and there is plenty of tea to go around. Tia's Seasonal Exchange returns this month to mark something special: two years on New Faerieland.
We're celebrating another wonderful year, and everyone has set up a little tea party in the garden for the occasion. Play match-3 levels to collect Bronze Coins, then use them to pick up some lovely tea party treasures. There's plenty of tea to pour and delicious treats to enjoy, so let's make this anniversary one to remember!
September 24, 2026 - October 21, 2026 at 02:00 PDT (09:00 UTC)
October 21, 2026 at 19:00 PDT (October 22, 02:00 UTC)
As with last month, the Event Shop does not stay open for an extra week. The event runs Thursday 24 September through Wednesday 21 October, and the shop closes later that same day at 19:00 PDT.
There is no bonus week to spend leftover coins, so exchange your Bronze Coins as you earn them.
This is our second anniversary, and there is more than tea waiting for you.
Log in on the day of the Anniversary - October 17 and you'll be rewarded with both in-game items and Neopets.com rewards. One day only, so set a reminder.
Anniversary gifts. Everyone celebrating with us receives a birthday hat and a 2nd Anniversary avatar frame to wear for the occasion.
A special login Stamp Card. From 13 Oct to 26 Oct, the Daily Login Stamp Card is filled with birthday-themed rewards. Keep logging in daily to clear it.
Last month we introduced character skill upgrades and promised more characters would follow. Here is the first of them.
Ascor's skill upgrade is now available. Once upgraded, his skill hits more targets and spawns boosters at random as it goes.
While both use the Boomerang, Ascor's skill lands a random number of hits, so what he does to the board is far less predictable. Get lucky and nothing clears a board faster - worth bringing to an Endless Mode run.
Where to get upgrade materials: through the Event Pass and the Event Shop, as before.
And there are still more characters to come.
To mark two years, two of our gift packages are discounted for the full run of the event - 24 September to 21 October.
If you've played previous Tia's Seasonal Exchange events, you already know the routine. Play match-3 levels, earn Bronze Coins, and exchange them at Tia's shop for rewards.
Pour yourself a cup and browse this month's anniversary rewards, then round out your collection with a mix of exclusive seasonal items and Neopets.com rewards when they rotate back in.
As always, some items are in limited supply, so if you have your eye on something, do not wait too long.
