Upcoming or ongoing Splatfests
Is there really a need for the "Upcoming or ongoing Splatfests" section? I doubt people go to this page for that information. A simple link to Main Page/Splatfest should be sufficient, right? Heddy (talk) 17:03, 31 March 2019 (UTC)


 * does anyone know when the next splatfest is? I think its either next month or the month after 02:07, 10 January 2023 (UTC)

Should we add the other 2 unannounced themes to 'Upcoming or Ongoing Splatfests'?
I've added the upcoming Chicken vs. Egg rerun to it, but Nintendo also announced there'd be another two Splatfests before the end of the fiscal year/March 2021. Should we add these, and if so, how should we add them? AriIsADumb (talk) 15:01, 21 July 2020 (UTC)
 * Only seeing this now but I added a sentence about it earlier. Thanks! Inkling luke.png Inkling talk.png 22:06, 21 July 2020 (UTC)

"Which Power-Up would you prefer?" Super Mushroom vs. Super Star!

It is coming in January, so HAD TO TELL OF THE AWESOMENESS THAT AWAITS! Let's a' GO! 🍄 P.J. GT (talk) 13:53, 3 September 2020 (UTC)

Oh!!! Wow!!!!, I can’t Wait!!!!!!!!!, and it’s a new theme!!!, do you know if this Splatfest it’s gonna count?, I don’t know what I vote, I CANT WITH THIS!! Splatoon635 (talk) 15:14, 3 September 2020 (UTC)

Hey, I have a question that can be rare but, if the theme is new, Can be the possibility that comes a new Shifty Station variation??, and can the Splatfest colors come to the private battles? Splatoon635 (talk) 17:03, 3 September 2020 (UTC)

Corrections regarding Splatoon 3
Under the "10x, 100×, and 333x Battles" heading, it says that festival shells can be spent at the Shell-Out Machine, which is wrong; instead, conch shells, which are obtained when your Catalog Level increases during the Sneak Peek, can. Festival shells only boost your chance of entering a 100× battle. Mentioning this here since the article is protected, so I can't edit it myself

Wrong Picture on Splatoon 3 Section
Hi!, Splatoon635 here, when I was checking the Splatfest article I noticed an Inkopolis Plaza (Splatoon 1) picture on the Splatoon 3 Splatfest Info section. Personally, I think it’s better to change it to the Splatoon 1 section and add a Splatsville picture instead, Thanks! Splat635 03:26, 22 September 2022 (UTC)
 * It's actually under the Preparations section.--MissDelibirda (talk) 10:42, 22 September 2022 (UTC)

Recording Super Sea Snails gains for Splatfest
Trying to write down if getting a lot of plus after Ruler will give you more snails.

I got Gear Ruler +1 and got 24 snails. Seems like it's the old system of winner ruler being 24 snails, and getting pluses don't give extra?

After we confirm this, might want to write it down on the Wiki. Akira Chisaka (talk) 03:21, 26 September 2022 (UTC)
 * I too did not get any extras. I finished with Grub Ruler +2 and got 21 snails. Alt (talk) 13:13, 26 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I was Fun Ruler +6 and got 21 Snails as well.  14:21, 26 September 2022 (UTC)
 * There is no addition for higher Titles. Grub Ruler +23 and still 24 Super Sea Snails gained. 14:33, 26 September 2022 (UTC)

apologies if this isn't the proper page for this, i just haven't seen mention of this yet. RaizePrime (talk) 13:26, 7 October 2022 (UTC)


 * im not sure if we can add it set since we still dont have the proper english names for the teams, i know japan has the team names since the SplatoonJP twitter account posted it with the "select your team" image that shows on deep cuts tv.

Splatoon 3 Splatfests
Splatfest themes in Splatoon 3 are shared between all regions. Should there be four tables? WUTAdam (talk) 04:27, 12 November 2022 (UTC)


 * There is a possibility that we might get region specific fests in the future.
 * There was a talk about this once on the discord and we "settled" with waiting for around one more Splatfest and go from there. 07:42, 12 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Should the merge go through now? I know the possibility of future region-specific fests is still on the table, but we can probably assume the majority will be worldwide. Lucs100 (talk) 17:26, 10 January 2023 (UTC)
 * which region would we even use the results of if we merged it? cuz they werent the same in every region, for example, scissors cam second in the hong kong and south korea region, but everywhere else it was paper

Spicy Vs Sweet Vs Sour
So the Spicy Vs Sweet Vs Sour splatfest just ended, & they didn't announce the winner on the splatcast. Can someone please explain why this is happening? Octoknight (talk) 00:12, 9 January 2023 (UTC)


 * The Splatfest results aren’t announced right away. They normally are announced two hours after the Splatfest ends.  00:21, 9 January 2023 (UTC)
 * its gets announced at the start of the next rotation, always been this way Adalent (talk) 01:01, 9 January 2023 (UTC)
