Donation Dome Login Calendar
Begin: July 10, 2025 End: July 31, 2025 Days of Prizes: 15
A day ahead? The login calendars start at midnight NST, but currently in-app the new day begins at 1:00AM. If you collect the first calendar prizes between midnight and 1:00AM on launch day, then at any point after 1:00AM on the first day you can collect the Day 2 calendar prizes. This will continue to be an issue until the clocks roll back an hour from Daylight Savings in November, 2025.
To complete the quest, use Benny's Donation Dome Paint Roller on the Festival plaza. This paint roller and plaza preview are as shown below. You must use this roller to activate the event.
Benny's Donation Dome
Crabby Hopbobbin is once again calling for donations from Dacardia. You can help by donating any items you have in your inventory.
The Donation Dome began on July 14, 2025 and will run through July 28, 2025.
Items can be donated by visiting the Festival Plaza. Once there, click the button to open the event:
Then, click on the "Attack Now" button in the bottom right corner:
Here, items can be turned in for Crabby Chips. These can be exchanged for prizes on Neopets.com! The number of Chips an item is worth is based on its item type and rarity. You can earn a maximum of 200 per calendar day, resetting at 1AM NST.

There are also omelettes that are "Bonus" items. These items are marked with a icon in the upper left corner of their image. Although these are worth more points than items of equivalent type/rarity, your daily maximum remains at 200 even if you donate them, so you may not find much advantage in donating them over other items you have surplus of.

How to Donate
Simply tap on any item on the lefthand side. You can use the tabs on the left to filter to certain types of items, but cannot sort the list overall. Bonus items will automatically appear at the top.
After tapping an item, you can use the slider to specify an exact quantity to donate, then press the yellow "Add" button.
The item will now appear in a box to the right. The total value of the item(s) selected will be displayed at the bottom of the screen. You can add additional items, up to 10 unique items at a time, each with any quantity.
When you are satisfied, press the green "Donate" button in the bottom right corner. Your items will be immediately removed from your inventory and will be credited with your Crabby Chips! If you have more than 10 unique items to donate, simply repeat this process multiple times.
If you attempt to donate above the daily maximum, you will receive a warning before proceeding. You can still donate the item(s), but they will be taken and you will not receive extra Crabby Chips. For example, donating 240 worth of items in one batch will consume all of the items, but only award you 200.
Notice this attempted donation was worth 201 points, but the daily limit is only 200 points, so the game provides a warning.
If you reenter the menu after you have donated your daily maximum, it will prevent you from executing any additional donations.
Milestone Prizes
Upon earning certain set amounts of Crabby Chips, you earn rewards on Neopets.com. You must have NeoPass connected to claim them.
Note that because this event's counter represents Benny's hit points, it will count down donation points from 3,000 rather than up from 0. The thresholds below represent how much you need to donate to earn them, but they are shown in the interface as their inverse from 3,000.
Milestone prizes will be awarded immediately and automatically after hitting the required thresholds.
Prize Shop
You can exchange your Crabby Chips for both Tales of Dacardia and Neopets.com prizes. To receive the Neopets.com prizes, you must have both your Neopets.com and Tales of Dacardia accounts linked to NeoPass.
The Donation Drive lasts over 15 calendar days. This means you can earn up to 3,000 for free, or up to 6,000 with a booster pass for the full event (see the next section for more info on this). The prize shop contains 4,925 worth of Neopets.com prizes and 1,075 worth of Tales of Dacardia prizes, so not all of these can be obtained without a booster pass. A booster pass for the full event would allow for exactly enough to purchase the entire prize shop.
The prize shop will remain open through the end of the day on July 28th. Any unused Chips will expire at this time.
Neopets.com Prizes
All Neopets.com prizes are limit 1. Unsure which Neopets.com prizes are the best value for your Crabby Chips? Check out our Prize Shop Value Guide!
You can double your daily maximum limit from 200 to 400 by purchasing a Booster Pass.
There are two types of Booster Pass. The "1 Day Doubler" costs $2.99 (or local equivalent) and will double your limit for the date of purchase only, resetting at 1AM NST. The "Daily Doubler" costs $14.99 (or local equivalent) and will double your limit every date through the remainder of the event.

Pearly Parlour Exclusives
During the event, the Pearly Parlour offered a handful of limited-time exclusive items. It is not known if or when these may retire. None of the items within the bundles were available for individual purchase from the Pearly Parlour, only as part of these bundles—although some were previously available individually during prior events, questlines, or other means.
The Void Within plot is now on hiatus for the holidays. We currently expect it to return in early 2026. Catch up on all that's happened so far on our plot guide:
Jellyneo was lucky to have the opportunity to interview Neopets CEO Dominic Law a.k.a. TNT Dom at SDCC 2025. We discussed his day-to-day responsibilities, reflected on the two years since the start of the "New Era," the challenges of steering the brand, and how TNT is balancing modernization with nostalgia. Dom shared his candid answers on revenue strategies, community trust, and what's next for Neopets:
