ACNH August Update 2022 - Events, Items, DIY Recipes & Critters In Animal Crossing New Horizons
ACNH August update is almost here, therefore we may expect to see some changes around the island, as well as a slew of new activities. Some of these alterations and upgrades to events and holidays are, of course, seasonal changes to DIY recipes and weather occurrences. However, not much will be changing in terms of the island's aesthetics in the near future, because we are entering the final month of summer. More than that, August brings us fresh ACNH items and events to keep us occupied.
ACNH August Events 2022
Fireworks Show Event
ACNH Fireworks Festival 2022 is held every Sunday from 7 pm to 12 AM. Luckily, we have 5 Sundays in August, the 3rd, 10th, 17th, 24th, and 31st. We have 5 opportunities to see Isabelle wear with her little boppers. Isabelle will be out of resident services for the ACNH Firework Show. Redds Raffle is going to provide quite a few new items and there's not a whole lot of complication to how you acquire them. Every Sunday, Redd will show up in the plaza. Players can pay 500 ACNH bells at Redd’s Raffle booth to pull a number of random prizes.
Bug Off
Does anybody get bored of the Bug Off yet? The Bug Off is towards the end of the month August 30th, the fourth Saturday in August. And this is for the northern hemisphere only. Flick is looking really excited about the Bug Off. You can participate by talking to Flick in front of the Resident Services. From 9 am to 6 pm, you can collect bugs. You need to catch as many bugs as you can within 3 minutes. But the prizes are the same.
Obon
One of the festivals that are going to happen this month is the Obon festival. A Japanese holiday honoring departed relatives took place on August the 12th. It typically involves Cucumber horse and Cucumber cow type items.
Qixi Festival
Available during the month of August for Cowherd and Weaver Girl Day, a Chinese festival celebrating the annual rendezvous of 2 star-cross lovers. It is also observed in Japan during the Tanabata Festival. You can buy Hikoboshi and Orihime outfits from Nook Shopping.
ACNH August DIY Recipes 2022
Summer shells will be available till the end of August for northern players, who will have just finished the season. However, gamers in the southern hemisphere who are approaching the last month of winter may continue to gather snowflakes until August 26. The 27th of August will mark the beginning of the spawn of young spring bamboo for players in the last week of August. Now is the best time to craft summer shells, snowflakes, and young bamboos DIY recipes.
