'''Fireworks Shows''' (known as the '''Fireworks Festival''' prior to {{WW|short}}) are summer events in the {{SER}}. During a Fireworks Show, fireworks can be seen flying into the sky in the background and exploding in different colors, lighting up the ground and the insides of homes (when the player is inside them). Also, there will never be any rain and the sky will always be clear. The Fireworks Show also has its own music.

The '''Fireworks Show''' (known as the '''Fireworks Festival''' prior to {{WW|short}}) is an event held regularly through summer in every game in the {{SER}}. During a Fireworks Show, fireworks can be seen flying into the sky in the background and exploding in different colors, lighting up the ground and the insides of certain buildings. [[Villager]]s will clap and sing as they observe the fireworks in the sky. On the day of a Fireworks Show the weather will always be clear, and unique music will play during the show.

In {{DnM}}, a Fireworks Festival is held at the town's [[lake]] every Saturday evening throughout [[August]]. [[Redd]] operates a stall selling either [[Gyroids]], [[List of K.K. Slider songs|airchecks]], or [[fruit]]. What he sells changes each Fireworks Festival, and the prices vary based on which item he is selling: Gyroids cost 1,000 Bells, fruit costs 1,280 Bells, and songs cost 980 Bells. Villagers gather around the lake, and the fireworks can be seen reflected in the water throughout town.

[[Redd]] will set up a stall by the lake selling handheld items for 480 [[Bells]]. He can sell either balloons, pinwheels, or fans, and which one he sells changes each Fireworks Festival.

In {{WW}}, the fireworks for Independence Day were removed, and a new event which happens every Saturday in [[August]] at 7:00 PM takes its place called the ''Fireworks Show''. During the Fireworks Show, Tortimer will be outside the Town Hall. The player can talk to him to receive either a Sparkler or a Roman Candle. Tortimer will usually only allow the player to receive two of each item a night, but if they pester him long enough, he might give out more. Both Sparklers and Roman Candles are equippable items. Once equipped, the player can use one of these items. Both objects shoot out sparks. Tortimer may also give the player a fortune for the night, which appears in a mail slot in their inventory. Fireworks also appear during the New Year's Eve celebrations.

In {{NL}}, the Fireworks Show was significantly upgraded. However, the shows continue to be held every Sunday in August. [[Isabelle]] will host the festivities in the [[Event Plaza]], handing out one of the four bopper items (Bulb, Flower, Heart, or Star) and allowing the player to submit a custom [[design]] to be used as a firework design during the show. [[Redd]] will also open a Cookie Stand in the plaza, where he will sell [[Redd's Cookie]]s for 500 Bells. These can be eaten, and can contain either a prize ticket (which can be redeemed for an exclusive item) or a Dud Ticket (which are only rewarded with a Sparkler or Roman Candle). [[Fountain Firework]]s are also a new addition to the Fireworks Show. The player can now also submit custom designs before the show that will be used as firework shapes. In addition, [[villager]]s will clap as they watch fireworks in the sky.

Isabelle will stand outside of [[Resident Services]] all day, and players can submit custom designs to be used as fireworks. Up to 10 designs can be submitted, and they will be launched in a specific order that can be configured by the player. Because Isabelle is outside all day, the Civic Consultation Counter at Resident Services is not accessible on the day of a Fireworks Show.

Redd operates a raffle stand in the event plaza, selling tickets during the show for 500 Bells. The player can win [[handheld items]] such as sparklers, balloons, a Pinwheel, a Tweeter, an Uchiwa Fan, or a Fountain Firework. If the player trips while running and holding their balloon, they will lose their balloon.

The Fireworks Show (known as the Fireworks Festival prior to Wild World) is an event held regularly through summer in every game in the Animal Crossing series. During a Fireworks Show, fireworks can be seen flying into the sky in the background and exploding in different colors, lighting up the ground and the insides of certain buildings. Villagers will clap and sing as they observe the fireworks in the sky. On the day of a Fireworks Show the weather will always be clear, and unique music will play during the show.

Fireworks are also displayed at the end of Countdown on January 1st to celebrate the New Year.

Appearances

In Doubutsu no Mori

Redd's stall during a Fireworks Show in Doubutsu no Mori.

In Doubutsu no Mori, a Fireworks Festival is held at the town's lake every Saturday evening throughout August. Redd operates a stall selling either Gyroids, airchecks, or fruit. What he sells changes each Fireworks Festival, and the prices vary based on which item he is selling: Gyroids cost 1,000 Bells, fruit costs 1,280 Bells, and songs cost 980 Bells. Villagers gather around the lake, and the fireworks can be seen reflected in the water throughout town.

In Animal Crossing and Doubutsu no Mori e+

Fireworks in Animal Crossing

In Animal Crossing and Doubutsu no Mori e+, the Fireworks Festival is held at the town's lake on July 4, coinciding with Independence Day in the United States. According to a bulletin board posting advertising the event, the show is held to commemorate the anniversary of the Train Station opening. Villagers gather around the lake, and the fireworks can be seen reflected in the water throughout town. In the original Japanese release of Animal Crossing, Fireworks Festivals are instead held each Saturday in August.

During a Fireworks Festival, Tortimer can be found roaming in a random acre and will give the player a decorative Bottle Rocket if he is spoken to; in the original Japanese release, he instead gives the player a Three-Foot Ball. Redd will set up a stall by the lake selling handheld items for 480 Bells. He can sell either balloons, pinwheels, or fans, and which one he sells changes each Fireworks Festival.

In Wild World and City Folk

In Animal Crossing: Wild World, the fireworks once again occur every Saturday in August at 7 PM. In Animal Crossing: City Folk, it instead takes place every Sunday night in August, a change that was kept in later games. For the first time the fireworks can be seen in the sky, as the games use a different perspective from the previous titles in the series.

Tortimer will be situated outside the Town Hall, and will give the player either a Sparkler or a Roman Candle which can be equipped to shoot out sparks. Tortimer will usually only allow the player to receive two of each item a night, but if they pester him long enough, he might give out more. Tortimer may also give the player a fortune for the night in the form of mail that goes directly into their mail inventory.

A Fireworks Show in New Leaf

In Animal Crossing: New Leaf, the Fireworks Show continues to be held every Sunday in August. Isabelle hosts the festivities in the event plaza, handing out one of four bopper hats (Bulb, Flower, Heart, or Star) or a Fountain Firework, which can be placed on the ground to fire a shower of sparks. Villagers will clap as they observe the fireworks in the sky.

Players can submit a custom design to be used as a firework design during the show. The design will be mixed in with the regular fireworks, appearing randomly.

Redd operates a Cookie Stand in the plaza, where he will sell Redd's Cookies for 500 Bells. These can be eaten, and contain tickets that can be redeemed for items.

Artwork of the Fireworks Show in New Horizons

While initially absent from Animal Crossing: New Horizons, Fireworks Shows were added in the 1.4.0 Summer Update Wave 2, once again taking place each Sunday throughout August. As in New Leaf, Isabelle will give the player a random bopper hat when spoken to during the show. On the day of a show, Able Sisters will be selling either the [[Item:Casual Kimono ({{{2}}})|Casual Kimono]], [[Item:Kabuki-Actor Yukata ({{{2}}})|Kabuki-Actor Yukata]], or [[Item:Morning-Glory Yukata ({{{2}}})|Morning-Glory Yukata]], these being the style of clothing that is traditionally worn during hanabi taikai in Japan.

Isabelle will stand outside of Resident Services all day, and players can submit custom designs to be used as fireworks. Up to 10 designs can be submitted, and they will be launched in a specific order that can be configured by the player. Because Isabelle is outside all day, the Civic Consultation Counter at Resident Services is not accessible on the day of a Fireworks Show.

Redd operates a raffle stand in the event plaza, selling tickets during the show for 500 Bells. The player can win handheld items such as sparklers, balloons, a Pinwheel, a Tweeter, an Uchiwa Fan, or a Fountain Firework. If the player trips while running and holding their balloon, they will lose their balloon.

Trivia

  • In a gameplay video for Animal Crossing shown at E3 2002, a Fireworks Festival is shown taking place on a Saturday in August like in the Japanese version, rather than on July 4 like in the final international release.[1]
  • Some of the prizes Redd gives in exchange for prize tickets in New Leaf such as the Ultra Hand are products that Nintendo made before it went into the video game industry.
