How To Participate In The 2026 ‘Trick-Or-Treat’ Event

To participate in the ‘Trick-Or-Treat’ event in Disney Dreamlight Valley you’ll need to keep an eye out on your valley. Here’s what you’ll be able to do:
- Collect different colored candy buckets.
- Trick-or-treat at villager houses that have Jack-o-lanterns out front.
- Eat tons of candy.
- Share candy with your villager friends.
- Complete event duties.
- Craft Halloween-themed items.
You can check the event duties, and the possible rewards by visiting the ‘Event’ section of the main menu.
Trick-Or-Treat Event Duties (2026)

There are 2 new Event Duties available for the ‘Trick-Or-Treat’ event. If you need help with previous years’ duties or how to get the Haunted Well, check the 2025 event guide.
| Event Duties | How To Complete | Reward |
|---|---|---|
| Sweet ‘n’ Scary | Trick-Or-Treat 1 Time | Halloween Town Fence Recipe (1 Trick-Or-Treat) Halloween Town Small Fence Recipe (2 Trick-Or-Treats) Halloween Town Fence Corner Recipe ( 3 Trick-Or-Treats) Halloween Town Gravestone Recipe (Trick-Or-Treat 4 times) |
| Scarily Sweet | Trick-Or-Treat 30 Times | Halloween Town Graveyard Statue Recipe (10 Trick-Or-Treat times) More rewards will be listed when obtained. |
You’ll be able to Trick-Or-Treat at the houses with Jack-O-Lanterns out front 1 time per day. Once you’ve Trick-Or-Treated at a house, the Jack-O-Lantern light will go out.
To Trick-Or-Treat, interact with the lit Jack-O-Lantern outside a villager’s house. You’ll receive 5 of each color candy.
The duties will show up in the normal Dreamlight duties section once they are complete, so be sure to collect those completed duties to get the crafting recipe rewards.
These rewards will be recipe books that appear in your inventory. You won’t be able to collect them if your inventory is full.
Use the recipe books from your inventory to learn the crafting recipes. You can find them under the ‘Event’ category in the crafting interface or the ‘All’ category which looks like an infinity symbol.
How Often Can You Get Candy For The ‘Trick-Or-Treat’ Event?

You can collect 2 candy bowls of each color every 24 hours. On October 31st, the rates will change to 2 candy bowls of each color every hour.
| Since you can only have 5 candy bowls in your valley at a time, make sure to pick them up when you see them so more can spawn at the daily reset time. |
There are 3 colors of candy buckets:
- Red
- Purple
- Green
Each candy bowl will give you 2 of that colored candy. You’ll need the candy to craft the recipes you get from completing event duties, so don’t eat it all if you want to craft some Halloween Town recipes.
