Sky: Children of the Light Days of Moonlight guide

The Days of Moonlight event in Sky: Children of the Light runs from September 29 through October 12 according to thatgamecompany Patch 0.30.5. Players collect up to 5 Event Tickets daily in the Crescent Oasis through riddles and Event Ticket Light, alongside 15 bonus tickets placed across the space, to unlock event cosmetics before tokens expire.

Days of Moonlight schedule and reset times

Official patch documentation records Days of Moonlight active from September 29 through October 12. A media report from Massively OP cited an alternate window running from September 19 through October 9 with sticker mural tasks, but official game notes establish the September 29 through October 12 calendar centered on riddle activities.

Daily event ticket allotments refresh at midnight Pacific Time. According to thatgamecompany reset documentation, daily quest and candle resets happen at 00:00 PDT (UTC-7) during Daylight Saving Time. Once Daylight Saving Time ends, the daily reset moves to 00:00 PST (UTC-8). Plan your collection runs around this Pacific midnight mark to avoid missing daily ticket allowances.

How to collect daily event tickets in Crescent Oasis

To enter the event grounds, follow the event guide Spirit into Crescent Oasis. Activities and ticket sources in the space include:

1. Daily ticket cap (5 per day): Read riddles left by other players and collect floating Event Ticket Light scattered across the immediate oasis gathering area.
2. Static bonus tickets (15 total): Locate up to 15 bonus Event Tickets placed throughout the event space during the festival run.
3. Interactive snacks: Visit the snack table near the gathering spot to sample event treats.

Because the daily cap yields 5 tickets per day, completing daily tasks across a standard two-week run easily covers ticket-priced cosmetic requirements without spending extra assets.

Days of Moonlight rewards and cosmetic costs

New cosmetics featured in Patch 0.30.5 require Event Tickets, regular Candles, or direct in-app purchases. In Sky: Children of the Light, Candles serve as the core currency used to unlock cosmetics, advance friendship trees, upgrade expressions, and collect limited-edition items.

Returning items also join this roster permanently: the Bunny Accessory and Lantern Pack (previously from Days of Sunlight) and the Bunny Slippers (introduced during Days of Style) now appear within Days of Moonlight. Any items that cost Event Tickets during previous editions are converted to regular Candle unlocks for subsequent appearances.

Ticket expiration and spell shop conversions

Event Tickets carry unique seasonal designs and expire immediately when the event concludes, per thatgamecompany event ticket rules. They do not roll over, remain in inventory, or convert into standard candles or hearts.

If you start late or miss daily collections, check the dedicated event spell shop. Certain events allow players to trade regular candles or ascended candles directly for event tickets. Use this conversion only as a backup when your daily ticket earnings fall short of the 60 tickets required to claim both the Moonlight Banner and the Moonlight Tufted Tail.

Frequently asked questions

You need 60 Event Tickets in total: 18 for the Moonlight Banner pack and 42 for the Moonlight Tufted Tail Accessory, based on Patch 0.30.5 details.
