Leagues
Leagues were FarmVille's big limited-time events: each one had its own farm, a board of orders to fill every day, rewards along the way, a weekly leaderboard, and a bonus building at the end. Zynga's servers ran them, so they stopped working when FarmVille closed. L.O.S Farms has rebuilt all twelve.
Staff switch leagues on one at a time. When a league is on, its farm appears in your travel list, and a season lasts as long as the original event did, starting the day it's switched on.
How a league works
- Orders: fill the orders on the league's board (grow crops, harvest animals, craft, spend coins, and so on). Each finished order earns points.
- Your day: points unlock the day's rewards. In most leagues, going past a reward level uses the league's own currency, which you earn from rewards and packages or ask friends for.
- Stuck on an order? Trash it and a new one arrives after 15 minutes (or right away for 1 Farm Cash), or finish it straight away with Farm Cash.
- Weekly leaderboard: your points put you on the week's leaderboard, and the top farmers win prizes.
- The bonus building: how well you did decides which bonus building you get at the end. It gives you a gift every day.
- The day turns over at midnight US Eastern time (05:00 UTC).
The leagues
| League | Farm | Originally | What's special |
|---|---|---|---|
| The Pavlozny Festival | Russia | 2018 | One leaderboard for everyone; Power Boosters double your bonus building's gift. |
| Old World Expedition | Israel | 2018 | Week points, Farm-Off chips to spend in the Farm-Off Market, and community goals the whole server works on together. |
| An Ancient Saga | South India | 2019 | Bronze, Silver, and Gold leagues: move up or down each week by your points. |
| Long Island Jamboree | Twenties | 2019 | Weekly rewards by your average; your party house levels up each week. |
| Highland Adventures | Ireland | 2019 | Points add up over the whole event toward 25 milestones; build the key building from Baron Villa up to King's Castle with Medieval Axes. After the day's orders, keep playing for the leaderboard. |
| Santa's Secret Village | Santa's Village | 2019 | A gift a day during Christmas week. |
| Harvest Valley Farmers Market | Harvest Valley | 2020 | Orders fill your produce store; sell produce at the market. Watch the FarmVille Times: its headline tells you if prices are about to go up or down. Earn Market Coins toward milestone foals. |
| Bora Bora Isles | Bora Bora | 2020 | Plan six weddings: buy decorations with Bora money and place them at the venue to earn thumbs-ups and stars. |

| Spookstown Soiree | Spookstown | 2020 | Weekly rewards and a party house to level up, plus escape tokens. |
| Lakeside Yuletide Wreath Festival | Lakeside Yuletide | 2020 | Bronze, Silver, Gold, and Diamond leagues: the top 15 each week move up. |
Escape tokens
Spookstown Soiree and Coastal Countryside Tropical Market used escape tokens from FarmVille 2: Tropic Escape, a mobile game that's gone. On L.O.S Farms every finished order earns an escape token instead. Spend 3 on a boost that makes your next 5 orders count double, and collect enough to unlock extra land. The game still mentions Tropic Escape in a few places; you can ignore that.
Things that changed from the original
- Community goals in Old World Expedition were sized for millions of players, so they're smaller here.
- Highland Adventures allows 10 orders a day before you play for the leaderboard.
- Bora Bora's bonus buildings go by stars earned: 30, 60, 100, or 140 stars, and all four for a perfect season (170).
