Updated October 16, 2026, late U.S. Pacific time. Roblox’s Halloween weekend is arriving in waves, not all at once. The main Saturday launch window begins at 8:00 a.m. PT / 11:00 a.m. ET on October 17, when Steal an Egg’s Halloween Dimension and Dress To Impress’s Halloween update are both scheduled to open. FischFright 3 follows at noon ET, then 99 Nights in the Forest, Piggy and other events start through the afternoon.
Quick answer: The key U.S. start times are 8 a.m. PT / 11 a.m. ET for Steal an Egg and Dress To Impress; 9 a.m. PT / noon ET for FischFright 3 and Pet Simulator 99’s Diamond Mountain; 10 a.m. PT / 1 p.m. ET for 99 Nights in the Forest, Huss Valley and Piggy; 11 a.m. PT / 2 p.m. ET for Sell Fries!; and 1:30 p.m. PT / 4:30 p.m. ET for Grow a Garden’s Ghoul Garden. RIVALSWEEN was scheduled to begin Friday night in the U.S. and should already be live by Saturday morning.
Times below are listed in U.S. Eastern Daylight Time (EDT) and Pacific Daylight Time (PDT). Event listings can change, so use the official Roblox event page linked in each row before planning around a launch.

Already starting Friday night in the U.S.: RIVALSWEEN was scheduled for 9:00 p.m. ET / 6:00 p.m. PT on October 16 (01:00 UTC on October 17). If you are reading this Saturday, open the official listing to check whether the event is active and review its end date.
Which events should you join first?
Start with the event that has a limited window or the content you care about most. At 11 a.m. ET, Steal an Egg and Dress To Impress launch at the same time, so players who want both should decide which experience to load first and then switch after the update is accessible. The exact order is a practical choice, not a claim that one event has better rewards.
- For exploration and boss fights: Try Steal an Egg first if the new dimension is your priority. The announcement confirms a gateway, monsters, bosses and secret eggs, but does not yet confirm specific egg names, hatch odds, entry requirements or reward stats.
- For fashion and seasonal items: Open Dress To Impress and check its in-game update panel. Do not assume every item shown in older Halloween artwork is returning this year.
- For fishing and collecting: FischFright 3 begins at noon ET. The official event listing establishes the event window, but a complete new-fish and reward list was not available in the reviewed announcement.
- For survival-horror gameplay: 99 Nights in the Forest begins at 1 p.m. ET. Its event is labelled Part 1, but the listing reviewed did not provide a full walkthrough or confirmed reward table.
- For a short session: Sell Fries! is listed as a 24-hour event, making it worth checking earlier rather than leaving it until the end of the weekend.
- For a longer garden session: Grow a Garden’s Ghoul Garden is scheduled for 4:30 p.m. ET and lists new seasonal systems and content.
What is confirmed — and what is still unknown?
Event countdowns and social posts can spread quickly, but a launch date does not automatically confirm the reward pool. For this guide, the strongest time references are the individual Roblox event listings linked above, cross-checked against a schedule roundup that recorded the listings on October 16, 2026. Developers can still adjust times or descriptions, so refresh the official page if a countdown disagrees with this table.
For Steal an Egg, the event announcement confirms the Halloween Dimension, a gateway, monsters, bosses and secret eggs. It does not confirm every new pet, mutation, price, hatch chance or required Speed level. For FischFright 3, the listing confirms the limited event but does not provide a complete reward inventory. For 99 Nights in the Forest, “Part 1” is confirmed in the event title; a complete route, candy total or unlock price should not be treated as verified unless the live game or developer announces it.
That distinction matters: a useful event guide should tell players what is actually announced and what needs to be checked in-game, rather than inventing limited items or promising free rewards that may not exist.
Quick checklist before you join
- Bookmark the official Roblox event page for each game you plan to play.
- Check your local time zone: the U.S. schedule above uses EDT and PDT on October 17.
- Update Roblox and the game before the start time; if an experience still shows the old version, try rejoining after the event begins.
- Read the in-game update notes before spending currency or premium currency.
- Take screenshots of reward requirements if you want to track limited-time progress.
- Avoid third-party “free reward” links that ask for your Roblox password, browser cookies or downloads.
