Animal Crossing: New Horizons Getting Free Update April 23

Enjoy a number of special seasonal events in Nintendo’s Animal Crossing: New Horizons, starting April 23, 2020.

Starting on Thursday, the nature-loving Leif will pay players a visit and will give them a chance to peruse Leif’s Garden Shop. Items for sale include an assortment of foliage, including shrubs and flower seeds. Jolly Redd will also show up on occasion to sell in-game art, along with furniture in unique colors. Be warned though – players need to figure out which pieces are real and which are fake.

Also coming up are the following days and tours:

Nature Day (April 23-May 4) – During the Nature Day period, special Nook Miles challenges will be available that focus on nature-inspired goals, such as planting trees and watering flowers.
May Day Tour (May 1-7) – In the first week of May, players can use a one-time May Day Ticket at the island airport to head out on a limited-time tour to an island that looks different than the usual mystery island tours.
International Museum Day (May 18-31) – To celebrate International Museum Day, players can take part in a Stamp Rally. After receiving a special stamp card, players can enjoy viewing fish, insects and fossils while collecting stamps at the various museum exhibits to earn an in-game reward.
Wedding Season (June 1-30) – During a nuptial-themed June, players can visit Harvey’s island to meet the married couple Reese and Cyrus, as well as help arrange and take anniversary photos with them in the wedding-picture studio. Players will get wedding-themed items as a token of their gratitude.
