Winter Holiday Plaza
During the Winter Holiday events, the Plaza is covered in snow, the central fountain is replaced with a massive Christmas tree, and various baubles, wreaths, and other holiday decor are dotted all over the map.

Holiday Coins & Santa's Workshop
During the Winter Holidays event you can earn Holiday Coins by playing Game Worlds or games in the Plaza that have payouts. The only activity that does not give Holiday Coins is the Casino. Holiday coins can be spent to purchase season-exclusive items at Santa's Workshop, which is located at the central fountain in the Main Plaza Square. A full list of items sold at the shop can be found in its dedicated article.

We resolved some major last minute bugs tonight, but discovered one more issue that would greatly affect performance and need to rebuild lighting, which is a long process. Apologies for the delays." - wheezwer
