All Saints' Wake 2020

The holiday is themed around a beach party that happens to include fireworks among its festivities.

Japanese summer festivals often involve a firework display. Just because it's the only one you know, doesn't mean it's the only one.

This can't be correct... not only is the event never in July (it's usually in August) it also would be the only event in-game that is to commemorate a patriotic event for one specific country in a world-wide game.

It's a Japanese thing, the hanabi, which takes place from late July through August, which is exactly when the Moonfire Faire happens. Also you can see this reflected in Animal Crossing where in the night sky in August there will be fireworks, again to reference this event.

It's a small world, where lots of places use fireworks for celebration. More power to them! https://www.kuoni.co.uk/inspiration/...und-the-world#

Guy Fawkes Night for UK residents, granted that is November but still a holiday(If choose to celebrate it, certainly fallen out of fashion around where I live) centred around Fireworks, certainly would never expect any game to have that as a celebration in it XD

4th July is the same principle, so highly unlikely that Moonfire Faire is based on it and more based on Japanese Festivals, they do however add stuff based on other cultures(Ninja Warrior anyone) but the central theme is distinctly Japanese.

Cancelling All Saint's Wake makes me so sad. It's my favorite time of year, and my favorite event all year long. It sucks even more since we won't really get to celebrate halloween IRL as usual because of Covid...

There's nothing to stop players from organizing their own in-game events as they usually do.

Sure, but there's no whimsy of an All Saint's Wake quest or Halloween themed rewards, but at least the later look like they might be given out some other way. Hopefully it will be addressed in the live letter on the 9th.

The planned event rewards will be obtainable in the Make it Rain event. Was stated in last PLL
