There are many seasonal events held throughout the year in Final Fantasy XIV, and it can be hard to keep up with what’s coming and going. To help sort your schedule, we’ve got a rolling list of the usual FFXIV events, timing estimates, and even speculation about what’s to come.

Below, we’ll outline the FFXIV 2025 calendar’s confirmed and tentative event schedule — along with some events that may have wrapped up for the year. Additionally, you can check out the MMO’s usual calendar too, along with a little explainer on each of the year’s festivities.

With the ever changing nature of time, it’s hard to pinpoint or predict exactly when each regular event will take place outside of the general time of year. However, there are some that are easier to predict than others.

Here’s what’s going on in FFXIV currently, and what you can look forward to in the near future:

Expired events

• Heavensturn [December 31, 2024 – January 16, 2025]

Recurring FFXIV seasonal events

While some years haven’t always followed this pattern, FFXIV mostly sticks to the same schedule of seasonal staples while throwing a few new festivities in here and there. The table below outlines the usual schedule from year to year, but if you want a peek at timely announcements on newcomers, maybe pencil in time to watch the next FFXIV Live Letter stream.

As one of the regularly scheduled events in FFXIV’s packed calendar, the next event we’re going to see will be Valentione’s Day, which is due to begin at some point in early February and continuing past Valentines Day.

We’re likely to see further information revealed about this event and what to expect from it before or during the next Live Letter from the Producer on February 7.
