Christmas Event 2021
It’s that time of year again – the MCNR Christmas Event is here!
This event will run from the 12th of December until the 5th of January (inclusive).
This is the third year we have run a Christmas Event, and we hope you enjoy it again if you were present for either or both the last two events.
Candy Canes
Could you end up in the top 100 on the candy leaderboard?
Throughout the event, you will earn Candy Canes. These can be earned from any of the Christmas activities listed below.
The players with the most Candy Canes (top 100 leaderboard) when the event ends in early January will earn cash prizes and special clothing items that cannot be obtained in any other way.
See /candy in-game for more information, and use /candyranks (it works on Discord too!) to check the leaderboard.
Christmas Tree
What has Santa left under the tree for you this year?
Visit the Christmas tree (no more than once in a 24 hour period) for a random gift! Gifts include health & armour, weapons & ammo, cash, seasonal clothing, candy canes, free vehicle credits and more!
The Christmas tree can be found in these locations while the city is active:
– Los Santos: Pershing Square (outside Los Santos Police Department)
– San Fierro: City Hall (outside the bank)
– Las Venturas: Roca Escalante (outside Las Venturas Police Department)
See /tree for directions in-game.
Gift Hunt
Can you find all the gifts?
As with previous events, the hunt is back! 150 gifts have been scattered around each of the cities for a total of 450 gifts to find. You’ll earn bigger prizes as you find more gifts.
You earn prizes at 10, 25, 50, 100, 200, and 450 gifts.
There is an additional seasonal clothing item this year for finding all 450 gifts: a Christmas tree hat! There is no other way to obtain this clothing item, so it’s going to be rare!
NOTE: In this and future seasonal events, players are now all assigned random gift locations. No two players are likely to see the same set of gifts. This prevents cheating.
Carol Singing
Can you hit the high notes?
Go door-to-door and spread the festive cheer by carol singing. You’ll earn lots of Candy Canes! Simply visit any owned property and either knock on the door or ring the bell.
NOTE: You cannot revisit a house within 24 hours, and you may only visit so many houses in a 24 hour period.
Seasonal Clothing
NOTE: Not all seasonal clothing items shown.
As in previous years’ events, you can obtain special clothing items via the Christmas tree, gift hunt, but we’ve added some additional ones this year!
You’ll get the gifts for finding gifts, the Xmas tree once all gifts found, the baubles etc. from the tree and randomly if you already have the gifts from the gift hunt, and some more for being in the top 3, 10, or 100 on the candy leaderboard after the event.

Big thanks to ChrisAg for the Christmas decorative objects around the map, good work!
