A brand-new event has arrived in Candy Crush Saga โ€“ Candy Pins ๐Ÿ“Œ
This exciting addition gives you a fun way to collect unique Pins, complete Sets, and unlock sweet rewards while you play!

Letโ€™s dive into everything you need to know.

What Are Candy Pins?

Candy Pins are a collectible reward system where you gather Pins by playing events and activities. Each Pin belongs to a themed Set (like โ€œYummy Yetisโ€ or โ€œTasty Travelsโ€), and completing Sets unlocks boosters!

๐ŸŽฏ There are 15 Sets to complete, each containing 9 Pins.

Pins come in 5 rarities:
Common | Uncommon | Rare | Epic | Sweetonium (the rarest!)

Want to show off? You can share your progress using your deviceโ€™s native share button. (Note: This isnโ€™t available on HTML5 browser version just yet.)

How It Works!

Get Pin Packs from events

Earn Packs by playing activities like the Daily Treat Machine, Episode Race, and other game features.

Collect Pins of all rarities

Each Pin added helps you build Sets and move closer to rewards.

Complete Sets for tasty boosters

Youโ€™ll unlock boosters like Color Bombs, Striped Candies, or UFOs once you complete a Set.

Earn the Grand Prize!

If you complete all Sets before the 8-week window ends, youโ€™ll unlock:
๐ŸŽ Gold Bars
๐Ÿ’ฅ Powerful Boosters

What If I Get a Duplicate?

No problem! Duplicate Pins turn into Pin Sparks, which you can trade in for Spark Chests.

โœจ The rarer the Pin, the more Sparks you get!
(1 for Common, 2 for Uncommon... up to 5 for Sweetonium!)

What Are Spark Chests?

Use your Pin Sparks to open Spark Chests, which contain:

  • New Pins
  • Boosters
  • Rare Pins to help complete Sets faster!

Where to Find Candy Pins in the Game

You can access your Pins from the PINS tab in the bottom menu (next to Friends).
Once youโ€™re at Level 51, the feature unlocks!

Inside, youโ€™ll find:
๐Ÿ“š Your Collection
๐Ÿ“Š Progress Tracker
๐ŸŽ Spark Chest Widget
๐Ÿ† Grand Prize Tracker

When the 8-week window ends:

  • ๐ŸŽฏ Claim your Grand Prize on the Saga Map
  • ๐Ÿ“ฆ If all rewards are claimed, the Pins tab will disappear until the next window

Update: What Happens to Sparks After Completing the Collection?

Weโ€™ve seen a few questions aboutย what happens to your Pin Sparks and Pins once you finish the collectionย so hereโ€™s a quick clarification:

Once you complete all 15 Sets and claim the Grand Prize:
- Your Pin Sparks will reset
- You wonโ€™t be able to use them in the next collection
- Your current collection (Pins + Sparks) will not carry over into the next season

If youโ€™ve been saving Sparks for big trades, make sure to use them before completing your final set!

We know this may not have been clear, so thanks to everyone who flagged it, your feedback has been shared with the team ๐Ÿ’ฌ

    Hi irjrjrd and welcome to the Community ๐Ÿ˜Š

    It looks like you might have a question about pinsโ€ฆ. could you share a bit more details? Are you asking about game features, collectibles, or something else?

    Let us know what you need, and weโ€™ll do our best to assist!

    Hello @irjrjrjd I do know what you mean by "pins". I have these too in my test game. I also don't really understand them very well. They must be a new feature King are testing for some players. In fact the pins feature is not in "events" but sitting at the bottom of our map screen just next to "friends":

    This is a screenshot of what I see when I click on "pins". It seems that if you collect many of them you will get a prize:

    I hope this helps to show what they are for.

    Hey @irjrjrjd and @christinewupp thanks for bringing this up ๐Ÿ˜Š

    Yes, Pins are a new feature currently being tested for some players! They let you collect unique Pins, complete themed Sets, and earn rewards as you play. You can find them in the PINS tab at the bottom of your game screen, right next to "Friends."

    How It Works:


    Collect Pins from treasure chests in events and game activities.
    Complete Sets to unlock boosters and rewards!
    Duplicates turn into Pin Sparks, which can be used to get more Pins.
    If you complete the full collection, youโ€™ll earn an exclusive Grand Prize!

    Weโ€™d love to hear your thoughts on this feature!

    • Do you find Pins fun to collect?
    • Is the feature easy to understand?
    • Any improvements youโ€™d suggest?

    Your feedback helps us shape the best experience for everyone! Keep playing, keep collecting, and let us know what you think ๐Ÿ™‚

    Noch ein Event, das es bei mir nicht gibt ๐Ÿ˜ž

    It's too early for me to decide if I like the feature, but one comment I can already make is this: The animations are too long! This is especially irritating because this event popped up because I won the daily win prize. This includes a timed 5 minute party popper prize. Annoyingly long animations get very irritating at such a time!

    Totally unrelated but seeing the rewards lounge icon reminds me that:

    King needs to roll out the new user interface ASAP. The events tab is just so much nicer with the new one.

    I so much agree with you, any clicks for candy Royale, animations,or pop up packages,,take away precious seconds,we need for free booster rounds.
