The Best Neopian Annual Events!

On Neopets there are a lot of events and opportunities that come around approximately once per year, and if you blink you might miss it. People spend months preparing for these things, while others wait until the last minute to get ready for the big event. Some may present avatars, while others come with new outfits and paint brush colors, and some come with no reward except the joy of the day. I wanted to create this little guide of yearly events so you can be prepared for the upcoming year and mark off your calendars now. Before it's too late! I can't reveal all of the details of each events, it could be a deep secret that is too precious to publish in the Neopian Times, but it might be something you want to sleuth into on your own time.
