SimGurus took to Twitter today to give more info on The Sims 4 Seasons Expansion Pack. We will be adding more throughout the day, so be sure to check back!
Since we're headed off to #EAPlay soon might as well show you guys what the calendar looks like in-game. Now where are my glasses… #CalendarHype pic.twitter.com/gNqkbVmbl7

Each day only has time for one holiday, but you can customize the traditions to mash your favorite things together 🙂

Yep.

You guys!!!!
There's flowers and lemons on this tree!!!
Are harvestables going to flower now? @SimGuruHouts @SimGuruGeorge @SimGuruGrant
Thanks for pointing that out @aqua_sims pic.twitter.com/DNzngkKCI2— 🐝Brazen Lotus🐝 (@BrazenLotus) June 7, 2018
@SimGuruRad confirms that this tree is currently in season and blooming.

Looks like a glass house to me. I mean, there are green things around it I guess.

Only if you check this box. pic.twitter.com/BUCku3b36V

There is. I'm planning a cool pic for later this week. I'll note it in that tweet.
— George Pigula (@SimGuruGeorge) June 7, 2018
Nope. Holidays stay in your world. You can create different ones per save.
— George Pigula (@SimGuruGeorge) June 7, 2018
Holidays are 1 day. But you can make the same one every day for a week if you want.
— George Pigula (@SimGuruGeorge) June 7, 2018
Standard build mode decorations are placed by you. Decorations on the house (The eaves, friezes, foundations, fences, etc) are placed via the decoration box. You select the decoration and your Sim interacts with the box and applies it.

Always Sunday

I wouldn't exactly say it's like clubs as some of the holiday traditions have unique content that can only happen during the holiday.
— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) June 7, 2018
There are changes to the public spaces when the seasons change.
— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) June 7, 2018
Yes, by default there are some holidays that will happen!
— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) June 7, 2018
Not by default, but you could make a holiday for each day of summer where everyone has work and school off.
— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) June 7, 2018
Gift giving is not limited to holidays!
— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) June 7, 2018
Traditions are far more broad than club activities, which are very specific, so I don't think it would actually make sense to add more of them. I am having a hard time even thinking of something that could be added in a future pack that would make sense for a new tradition.
— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) June 7, 2018
I would imagine Prom to be more similar to an event like the Birthday Party. I think when you get a chance to see how the holidays play, you'll see that they play differently from events and club gatherings.
— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) June 7, 2018
Yes, if Father Winter is a tradition for the holiday, he'll magically appear when the hour strikes!
— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) June 7, 2018
You'll be able to create your own Halloween holiday!
— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) June 7, 2018
I'm not sure what you mean, he is a part of the Winterfest holiday which will be on the calendar by default. Or you could create your own holiday where he appears.
— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) June 7, 2018
You'll be able to make a holiday where you can remember those who have passed on.
— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) June 7, 2018
Sorry, not explaining this well. We did create specific traditions for things that make sense for holidays. However, I cannot think of anything we could add in a future pack that would require its own tradition instead of being part of a broad tradition.
— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) June 7, 2018
I don't think we said that! I specifically told people that we would never do that!
— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) June 7, 2018
There is a difference between weather and seasons. All the worlds have seasons, but their weather will be different.
— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) June 7, 2018
Yes.
— George Pigula (@SimGuruGeorge) June 7, 2018
I don't believe we animated this.

@SimGuruGeorge whats that little orange bag thing? pic.twitter.com/IITf2lT4K9
— Allison C. 👻 (@allisonbrookeC) June 7, 2018
Looks like one of the paper bag lanterns.
— George Pigula (@SimGuruGeorge) June 8, 2018
You can use any of the traditions to customize a holiday on any day of the calendar.
