[S] Time Limited Event causes seasons holiday UI to disappear

Ever since the latest event started the seasons Holiday UI isn't functioning correctly. The holiday will begin 90% of the time time but then the UI disappears. The event icon still remains however. From the Sims behaviour I think the Sims themselves still treat the day as the holiday (singing, pranks on prank day etc) but for me as the player I am unable to see what traditions each Sim has left to complete which on some holidays leads to a sad mood buff for hours because I was unable to know what they needed to do. I'm not a huge fan of these mobile events but if they are going to be regular occurrences moving forward then please address the issues that they add on top of current existing bugs. I would rather no event and no free items if it meant I'd be able use holidays from The seasons expansion pack that wasn't free and I've paid for.

Edit By Crinrict: Adjusted Title a bit

  • Ok basically the balloons disappeared for me and I was unable to cycle between. Haven't checked today as tbh I'm to scared to open my game atm. I've spent alot of time on the forums in the last couple of days and as I have alot of For Rent lots, until save file corruption is addressed I'm not willing to risk it losing my save file, I've lost to many in the last 18 months due to bugs. Appreciate your help though. I'd close this thread and focus on the many similar issues with this event. Appreciate your time though.

  • Despite what the Community manager has written, this problem has absolutely not been resolved and is still occurring.

  • This is definitely not resolved!!
    I already had this problem at the Reaper Event. For me too, the UI disappeared on the New Years holiday. To reactivate this, I went back to the main menu. Oh, and oops, I had a white screen. I had to quit the game and restart it, so I could continue playing. 
    I play on the PS5.

    After 30 minutes of gameplay, the rewards event task window disappears. No tasks are shown. This has been going on for three weeks, ever since the event started. The previous event had a similar problem. And the reaper’s reward event broke in the middle and I was never able to complete it. Please stop doing these events if EA can’t do them without breaking the game. I am on PlayStation five no mods ever.

  • Ever since the nature's calling event the holiday UI keeps closing all the time while switching between sims and it's incredibly annoying. It's making me constantly miss out on holidays because I don't always notice them since the UI is closed! It also happens during an active school day in high school.
