2. Retrieve the presents from the goblins.
Take back the presents from the Goblin Merrymakers that are roaming around town.

• If you find yourself stuck and unable to clinch victory from the jaws of defeat, try speaking to the moogles again—they just might have some hints for you. If that doesn't work, you can also team up with a bunch of friends—the more the merrier, and the more likely you'll be able to nab some gifts!
• Afterwards, if you pass a goblin roaming the town while you are holding a present, they might steal it back.

3. Talk to the moogle while in possession of a present.
Check with the moogle to confirm the identity of the present giver.

During the Starlight Celebration, special minigames will be available for adventurers to enjoy.

Clearing these minigames will grant the winner not only a new sitting emote, but also Starlight Celebration-themed items, synthesis materials for the Orchestrion furnishing, and sheet music key items!

Leaf Bench Emote
Using the Leaf Bench item will grant the bearer a key item that allows him or her to use the leaf bench emote*.

• Activate the emote with the /sitchair 9 text command.

Throughout the event, smilebringers will be handing out presents to all the children in town.

Receive a Kiddie Present from the smilebringer.

Smilebringer Locations

2. Trade the Kiddie Present to a child. Find a child within the area and trade the Kiddie Present to them while equipped with a dream hat or dream hat +1.

During the event period, you can use the power of dreams obtained by giving Kiddie Presents to the children to gain access to a smilebringer teleportation service that lets you warp to the Kingdom of San d’Oria, the Republic of Bastok, or the Federation of Windurst.

If you also place a San d'Orian, Bastokan, or Windurstian holiday tree in your Mog House and then hand a present to the child, a moogle may find a special something in your Mog House.

• Dream hats, San d'Orian holiday trees, Bastokan holiday trees, and Windurstian holiday trees may be purchased from the special stores set up for this event.

For the duration of the Starlight Celebration, the participation fee will be waived for the Smilebringer Boot Camp, and adventurers who prove their grit and gaiety will be presented with unique seasonal items.
