Events

Faerie Festival

Although Queen Fyora was excited to unveil a new and improved Faerie Festival event this year on September 20th, forecasts of a particularly severe storm blowing in from Mystery Island have caused the Faerie Queen to delay the event. Since the storm is setting records for unusually high winds, the Festival has been rescheduled to October 2nd for the safety of attending Neopians.

This year, rumour has it that two faeries with a longstanding feud will be given the honour of organizing the upcoming Faerie Festival together! Can this pair overcome their differences to work side by side in the fight against pollution, or will their complicated past get in the way? There’s only one way to find out.

Halloween

We're getting excited for Halloween later this month! And what better way to get into the spooky season than with scary stories from around Neopia?! Reginald of Neovia will be in charge of hiding the Goodie Bags for this year's Trick-or-Treating Event! So come join us for Tales from Neovia…if you dare! 

Game Updates

Daily Quests Update

The debut of Daily Quests has been delayed! Originally scheduled for release in mid-September, this exciting addition is now estimated for release in mid-October. Daily Quests will serve as the ultimate guide for new users, helping them dive headfirst into the enchanting world of Neopia. For our seasoned adventurers, Daily Quests will soon become your go-to destination for even more daily rewards, offering a refreshing twist to your daily routine. Stay tuned as the countdown begins for a whole new way to embark on quests and earn incredible prizes!
