When exactly does this event end?

When it says the event ends on July 2nd, does that mean that at midnight (in an hour and a half, for me) it will be over? Or does it mean that July 2nd will be the final day? I unfortunately started this event very late due to illness, and I'm pondering using donuts for one or two of the prizes I haven't gotten yet, but I'd like to know exactly when the event ends, so I can squeeze out every last emblem (and spend less donuts).


Pull up your prizes that shows all the emblems ones that showed the table and such then top right there is a :!: click on that, timer is at the bottom.
  • Thank you :) A bit over 10 hours, so it seems "when I go to bed" is the answer to my question.

    Technically it ends when the timer goes, but really it ends when they release the update or force the uodate. Usually they won't force the uodate for a day or two.

    I don't know about that... I mean, I know it's been true with past events. But EA lately have seemed much more on the ball lately, Tapped Out is almost starting to feel like a professionally made game... they may have the update ready to ship as soon as the event ends.

    I may need stitches in my tongue :!: :mrgreen:
  • When EA says the event will "end" they mean the last day of the event. So you still have today and tomorrow to go and hopefully a little more after that if they don't force an update on us.
  • 4AM Eastern/3AM Central/2AM Mountain/1Am Pacific/Midnight Alaska...or the same time of day that the parchments were unlocked.

    Good news for myself, a chance to get the final emblems for the last donuts...I hope
