The best part is that Santa would actually leave a gift for you — if you complete certain preparations before his arrival.
How To Get A Gift From Santa in Stardew Valley
Santa’s visit to Pelican Town is a special event that happens on thenight of Winter 24th,the day before theFeast of the Winter Star inStardew Valley. If you keep your eyes peeled on the night before Winter Star – you might just catch a glimpse of Santa flying over your farm.
To get a gift from Santa, you need to leave him a little treat. A simple offering ofMilkor a freshly bakedCookieplaced on a table in your farmhouse is all it takes to entice him. It doesn’t matter if it’s regular, large, or even a gold-quality treat; Santa appreciates the gesture regardless.
You can leave both Cookies and Milk to get an extra surprise from Santa, but since each table can only hold one item,you’ll need to place two tables if you want to offer him both Milk and Cookies.Leaving out multiple Milk cartons or multiple Cookies on the same table won’t result in extra gifts.
In return for your thoughtfulness, Santa will leave a special surprise in its place: aMystery Boxfilled with all sorts of goodies, from useful seeds and valuable resources to other curioustrinkets inStardew Valley.
