The Grand Hub breathed new life into Monster Hunter Wilds' endgame multiplayer, and now things are livening up even further with the Festival of Accord: Blossomdance. The Blossomdance spring festival is the first post-launch event in Monster Hunter Wilds, and players can grind for some sweet new armor and enjoy a beautiful change of scenery in the Grand Hub for a limited time.
While Monster Hunter Wilds features a rotating weekly selection of event quests, the game hasn't seen an actual bonafide event until now. The Blossomdance event not only adds new event quests and rewards to Monster Hunter Wilds, but it also brings back some of the popular event quests from previous weeks that players may have missed out on. There are a ton of rewards both new and old to earn during Festival of Accord: Blossomdance, so hunters have a busy few weeks ahead of them.

Using these status effects to their fullest capabilities will make players even better in Monster Hunter Wilds.
Monster Hunter Wilds Blossomdance Event Schedule
Festival of Accord: Blossomdance will be live in Monster Hunter Wild for two weeks, kicking off on Tuesday, April 22 and ending on Tuesday, May 6. While Capcom hasn't announced an official start time for the event, Monster Hunter Wilds updates typically go live in the evening for players in North America, so that's when the Blossomdance event will most likely begin.
During the event period, the Grand Hub will be flooded with cherry blossoms and spring decor to celebrate the season. Some old event quests will return during the Blossomdance event period, but the new event quests are the real highlight since they reward players with materials to craft the gorgeous Sakuratide armor. Seasonal events typically return every year in Monster Hunter games, so players that miss out on the Blossomdance event rewards will still have a chance to earn them in the future.
All Monster Hunter Wilds Blossomdance Event Rewards
While there are a lot of activities to partake in during the Festival of Accord: Blossomdance event in Monster Hunter Wilds, the only new rewards that players can earn are the Sakuratide armor set and the Butterfly armor set for Palicoes. These are mainly intended as layered armor, but the Sakuratide set has some unique perks that make Blossomdance grinding much easier.
In addition to existing skills like Foray, Adaptability, and Quick Sheathe, the Sakuratide armor set comes with some new perks specific to the Blossomdance Festival. The first is Blossomdance Prayer, which adds special items to quest rewards at level two and greatly boosts attack and defense at level four. These buffs are only active during Blossomdance, however. Then there's Festival Spirit, which allows players to carve one additional time from carcasses during quests at skill level three. Each Sakuratide armor piece has one level of each skill, so multiple pieces are required to get the full effects.
While the Sakuratide armor and Butterfly Palico set are nice, players should also take the opportunity to grind past event quests during the Blossomdance spring festival. Since old Monster Hunter Wilds event quests are returning, this is the perfect chance to stock up on cooking ingredients and armor spheres.
