Turkey Day is a Thanksgiving event in Animal Crossing: New Horizons for Nintendo Switch. In this guide, we’ll cover what to do during the event, and what prizes and items you can get.
Turkey Day Dates and Times
In version 1.6.0, new events are unlocked, but you can’t play these events by time-traveling before the specified date. Once unlocked, you can travel back in time and play them again.

What to Do During Turkey Day
Buy Harvest Furniture
You can buy Harvest furniture from Nook’s Cranny, just like in October. Collect all the furniture before the event ends, as it’s only available for a limited time.
Help Franklin Collect Ingredients
On Turkey Day, you’ll help Franklin complete his dishes by gathering four ingredients. Franklin will hint at the needed ingredient and provide clues for a secret ingredient to make the dish tastier.
Dish Examples:
- Salads: Fish Salad, Oyster Salad
- Soups: Fruit Soup, Mushroom Chowder
- Main Course: Sautéed Sea Bass, Seared Barred Knifejaw
- Desserts: Apple Pie, Banana Tart
Gather the Ingredients
There are two types of ingredients:
- Gatherable Ingredients: Mushrooms, fish, etc.
- Acquirable Ingredients: Vinegar, lemon, etc., obtained from villagers.
You can only acquire ingredients from villagers when they are at home. You’ll need to trade items for their ingredients.
Bring Ingredients to Franklin
Once you have all the necessary ingredients, bring them to Franklin. He’ll start cooking the dish, and you’ll receive Harvest furniture or a fruit basket as a reward. If you bring all four secret ingredients, he’ll give you a cornucopia.
