### **Strategy tips**

* Hay Day Facebook page and inbox in game (top-left button) display events for the next week at about Sunday 12pm UTC.
* To prepare for double coins events, fill up your storage with 15 of each crop and 10 of each product.
* Farm visitors 2x coins event is a great way to earn coins. Farm visitors will ask for things you have either most or none in barn and silo. If you know the event is coming soon, start hoarding the most expensive stuffs and make it the most thing you have in barn. Same thing with silo, hoard most expensive fruits or crops. Kick all the visitors that do not ask for the items you hoard until the right ones came. Usually one will ask for barn items and one will ask for silo, so if they finally came asking for them keep them there. When the event starts, sell what you hoarded. After that you can keep searching common goods, such as wheat and eggs from Daily Dirt since they are easy to get and you need to keep selling to visitors to double the coins as much as you can. You should not find corn and sell to farm visitors because you only get 56 coins for 10 corn sold to farm visitors.
* Prepare for Lure Fishing Season by stockpiling colored lures in your Tackle Box.
* Avoid using Gold Lures during a Lure Fishing Season event as each of the 6 specialty fish can be caught with another type of lure. Save the rare Gold Lures to catch the Speckled Dace, Golden Trout, and Goldfish.

### **Did you know?**

* The event ad, which appears when you log into the game and a new event has started, can be flicked away (just like the raven).
* Before the December 2014 update there used to be contribution events in which you had to contribute a certain number of items in order to reach the global goals but Hay Day removed them saying that a lot of players especially low level can not contribute much which affects the score of other players.
* Before the Summer Update 2017 only one event used to last for 4 days from Friday to Tuesday till 4pm (PST).
