Has there been any announcement of the Valentione's Day event?

Please tell me it hasn't been canceled like the Halloween event was.
This is so much fun, the maze.

I don't think it will be cancelled. But I think we will hear more possibly on Friday, along with news about the next expansion.

Aye, it is! Good eye.
I've been asked about this with increasing frequency lately. Mayhaps more people are discovering this gem of a series.

We'll probably see the site updated with news about the event in the coming days. I don't think it'll be cancelled, though it remains to be seen if we get any major rewards this time around.

Just wait for the announcement for it, whether it goes or not it will be posted.

Does everyone forget to just check the site for these things? The last three events have been questions just like this, and each time they post information on the site. just like everything else.

Valentione's Day has run from the last week of January until just after Valentine's Day in the past, with the announcement posted one week prior to the event start.

We're already into February with no announcement. It's understandable that people would be curious since we haven't heard anything at all.

We're two days into February, after a year from hell, while they're also preparing a big reveal event later in the week. A little delay is not only completely understandable, it's entirely to be expected.

Sure.
A delay is fine and understandable.
Nothing wrong with that.
But if something IS being delayed they could/should at least tell us.

I don't think it's being delayed as has already been said it will probably reveal some information at the live letter this Friday and/or information revealed either later this week or sometime next week I think.

sometimes they give less than a weeks notice for holiday events like valentines because everyone knows roughly when it is. its not a one off like a crossover event which needs more lead time. they still have two weeks before it should be considered late but I agree with previous posts, it'll most likely get announced friday.

Here you go, they just announced it. And this time Little Ladies' Day is running concurrent with it.

Not really much rewards this year - a moogle hat with a love heart for a pom and a stuffed moogle with a heart pom tabletop minature, with no specific Little Ladies' Day items it seems. :(

Guess Little Ladies' Day is another victim of the pandemic. ; ;

For this year's event, the festival decorations on display will vary from city to city.

Limsa gets Valentione decorations, not the cherry trees. I was looking forward to those. :(

And the rewards are looking very lacklustre considering that it's two events in one and they're just recycling models. The only thing maybe-new is the heart.

I'll give them slack with the pandemic but I hope they pick back up again and don't stick to this level permanently.

Could we stop making hats for seasonal rewards? :(

I'll take those over housing food you can't re-buy or those numbered confetti from Starlight any day.

Those also suck. I just want more cute tops.

Both these items already existed, they just stuck a heart on it to make it slightly thematic for as little effort as possible.

I guess the time saved mattered more than whether or not everyone can use them or even wants them.

I sure there are others like me that hides head gear, so its useless to me... and only other event item for the house/apt, so may skip this event...

Do we get to vote Astrid out or is it a 4 year term?

Thinking it over, I'm not so disappointed by it being recycled as that the particular items are uninteresting.

If they're going to go that route, recycle glamour. Variants are a welcome thing.

They could redo the Quaintrelle/Boulevardier sets with different pants and a non-vanishing skirt and all would be forgiven.

Even a non-chequered version of last year's outfits would be great.

Wow!

And I thought Heavensturn was bad...

I dont think this is (only) related to the pandemic - at least I noticed a certain trend with the seasonal events and their rewards: Events that are closer to the release of a new expansion seem to be lacking - which would make sense if we assume that they're busy working on a new expansion. In years without expansion we get more complex events and rewards - so I'd expect the next run of them to be "better".

Most events say that but it usually just means consumables like fireworks or confetti, the big stuff like outfits go on Mogstation.

Valentines day event information

A moogle to join the plushy shelf in my house, and a hat to go in the armoire. Eh, better than Heavensturn anyway.

I hope they have the maze again. I thought that was really fun.

Hmm. I'm not normally one to complain about holiday events, but this feels extremely lacking. Last year's V Day event was a mess for a completely different reason, but at least we got some decent stuff out of it.

I can't wait to get the new hat.
Oh wait...

And, as expected, the website delivered yet again.

Patience, it's what's for dinner.
