Palia Maji Market: Start & End Dates, Times, Quests, Rewards, More

Kilima Village's nighttime skies will lighten up again with fireworks as the delicious scents of food and excitement fill the village with the return of the Maji Market. Developer Singularity 6 announced the event's rerun, which sees returning mini-games, new activities to enter, and plenty of rewards to claim available for a limited time.

Several Villagers have teased this event since the last patch update in December 2023, who will join players to celebrate this auspicious holiday. Let's look at all the event details for the Luna New Year-themed Maji Market, including its start and end dates, new themed content, rewards, and more for Palia.

Palia Maji Market: Start & End Dates And Times

Developer Singularity 6 announced the return of the Maji Market event, which will be arriving to the cozy MMO, Palia, possibly with or before the next scheduled patch update. The announcement was made on the game's social media channels, and the developer has provided details for this new event iteration.

According to Singularity 6, the Maji Market will go live across the game's servers starting on 30th January 2024, which, like with the previous event, is to run for one month with start and end times to be confirmed. Players will have this limited time to complete new quests, participate in event activities, collect new items, and claim rewards before the market closes on 27th February 2024.

How To Join The Maji Market Event In Palia?

Like the previous Maji Market event, they may receive an invitational letter, which can be collected from their Mailbox to start the market's new questline. It's unclear if there are any prerequisites for the new quests, which we'll update this page with additional information, and they can join the event by navigating to a dedicated page on the Events tab from the Character Profile menu.

The Maji Market event will again occur at the Kilima Village Fairgrounds, east of Fisherman's Lagoon, between 6 pm and 3 am Palian time (in-game times). Once at the event location, players can interact with Villagers to receive unique dialogue, start completing quests, and participate in event activities with other players while enjoying the fireworks display, delicious food, lively music, and more.

Palia Maji Market: New Quests, In-Game Activities & Rewards

The developer confirms that the Luna New Year edition of the Maji Market will add three new quests for players to complete during the event, which involves Zeki, who has several stalls available at the market. They'll celebrate the themes of "new beginnings, prosperity, good future, and more" with him while understanding the symbolism and meaning of wish-making.

Information on these quests and their walkthroughs will be detailed in subsequent guides, which they can find on GINX's Palia page once they're available. Alongside the new quests coming soon to Palia, two events are returning for the Maji Market: the Dragon Fireworks display and the Chapaa Chase mini-event.

The latter involves players teaming up to catch the chapaas who've escaped their pen to potentially earn Chapaa Chase Tickets, which can be exchanged for chapaa-themed rewards. The Dragon Fireworks display mini-event will see players testing their timing and rhythm by beating the drums found throughout the Fairgrounds to set off new fireworks Najuma has created for the event.

Additionally, there are a few new events, including the Luna New Year-themed The Wish Tree, in which players are to tie a ribbon around the Wish Tree in the hopes of their wishes coming true. As mentioned, Zeki has a few stalls at the market, one being Zeki's Prize Wheel, in which players can spin the wheel and earn something truly special or valuable.

But perhaps what has caught players' attention is the Hotpot Card Game, in which they can participate in this mini-event and earn some tasty rewards. The game is a co-op event in which they'll be paired with other players; however, details on its gameplay have yet to be revealed, but they can earn Lucky Envelopes.

Aside from the rewards earned from the quests and the Chapaa Chase Tickets from the Chapaa Chase mini-event, Lucky Envelopes are a new rewards system that they can acquire for this event. These can be obtained from the Hotpot Card Game and exchanged at several stalls, including "Reth's Street Specialties, Delaila's Sweet Treats, Zeki's Lucky Catch, and more."

As for the rewards previously available during the last Maji Market event, these will likely return, like the Chapaa Plushies, pillows, and more. Additionally, new rewards are to be added, which we'll confirm and update this page once the information becomes readily available.

Palia is currently available via the Epic Games Store and in Open Beta for PC, as players can install the game launcher detailed in this guide. The game is now available to download for Nintendo Switch as of 14th December 2023.
