What is International Friendship Day?

International Friendship Day takes place on July 30 every year and celebrates the idea that "friendship between peoples, countries, cultures, and individuals can inspire peace efforts and build bridges between communities," as stated on the United Nations website. Each year, governments and organizations across the globe are encouraged to host events, activities, and initiatives that "contribute to the efforts of the international community towards promoting a dialogue among civilizations, solidarity, mutual understanding and reconciliation."

How is My Hello Kitty Cafe celebrating International Friendship Day?

My Hello Kitty Cafe is celebrating International Friendship Day with a themed, limited-edition event that allows players to earn currency, participate in a parade, and unlock tons of event-exclusive items for their cafe. To join in on these festivities, head to the city and look for the decorated parade float pictured below. Keep in mind that this event is only in-game from July 29, 2022, to Aug. 4, 2022.

This float travels around the city every 30 minutes, and the characters on board throw out presents to those watching from the street. Inside of these presents are Gems, Coins, and a limited-time currency, Rainbows.
