Morning vs. Afternoon vs. Night, also known as SpringFest, was a seasonal special Splatfest in Splatoon 3. It was announced on social networks on 21 March 2025.

Details

Splatsville's unique decoration and other features for SpringFest. Note Shiver's outfit and the Inkling's Splatfest Tee being different from the final versions.

As a special Splatfest, SpringFest is accompanied by several cosmetic changes to the game, carrying over from Baby Chicks vs. Li'l Bunnies vs. Bear Cubs:

• Splatsville, Inkopolis Plaza, and Inkopolis Square are decorated with a spring theme. These decorations include flowers, artificial cherry trees, paper parasols, Easter eggs, colorful Moai statues, streamers, pennants, and a statue of a cartoon tuna mascot seen in various other locations throughout the game. The egg held by the chicken statue in Splatsville is repainted to resemble an Easter egg, while the pig statue wears an Easter egg hat. The kitsune and tanuki statues in Inkopolis Plaza are wearing flower crowns. Various structures in Inkopolis Square, including the origami crane and the tortoise statue, are covered in a fluorescent ooze that shifts between the colors of the three teams, similar to all special Splatfests in Splatoon 2. Bubbles drift through the air in all three hubs, and the sky is colored with a pink-light peach gradient.
• The camera angle for the title screen is modified in certain hubs. Inkopolis Square, for example, depicts the Galleria instead of Deca Tower.
• In the lobby, translucent stickers shaped like fish and Easter eggs appear when the floor and wall are inked.
• Deep Cut, the Squid Sisters, and Off the Hook wear special outfits.
  • Shiver's eyebrows and hair change to light green, the latter having a gradient to teal towards the tips. She wears a pink sakura earring in place of her usual ones, and a sakura crown in place of her headband. Her shawl has a teal-to-pink gradient, and a large, aqua flower-shaped pendant with white dots in the center and dark green tassels instead of her usual one. Her legwear also fades from teal to pink from her pants to her shoes, which have pink soles. Furthermore, her fingertips are colored aqua.
  • Frye's hair, eyelashes, eyebrows, and pants all feature a pink-to-aqua gradient; she also wears red lipstick. Her top and shawl both change to coral red, and the squid-shaped clip on her belt is replaced with a large white floral one with pink polka-dots. Her earrings and hairpiece are replaced with new ones styled after hanami dango; her fingertips and toe tips are colored pink.
  • Big Man's body sheen has a teal-to-pink gradient. He has two red circles painted on his cheeks resembling blush marks, and his usual headpiece is replaced with a large one made of three green flowers with pink dots connected with lines painted on the insides; the rope hanging from it is also pink.
  • Callie and Marie wear pastel versions of their normal outfits, with both of them having several accents in the opposite's color. Callie wears a pastel pink romper with all her usually white accessories colored aqua, while Marie wears a pastel green dress, with all her usually white accessories colored pink. Both of them wear striped tights; Callie's usual headpiece is replaced with an aqua Easter egg shell (though it retains the leaf underneath) while Marie's is replaced with a green one, both with pink markings. Callie's boots are recolored pink with aqua highlights, and Marie's are recolored green with pink highlights. Callie has an aqua flower mark painted on her right cheek, while Marie has a lime green one on her left.
  • Pearl wears a Gothic metal-inspired outfit with a spiky dark purple crown and studded collar alongside her usual gloves, and a long, low-cut black T-shirt with a white design that represents an Inkling and an Octoling's tentacles side by side. The straps of her top are visible over her otherwise bare shoulders. She wears fishnet stockings over black pantyhose, and high platform boots with chains wrapped around the ankles and skull designs on the tongues. The tips of Pearl's tentacles feature pastel green spots.
  • Marina wears a pair of headphones with a wire-mesh pattern on the ears, a white sporty bralette, and a black mesh garment on top of it, covering her neck and the top of her cleavage, and reaching down to the middle and ring fingers of her hands. She wears long white hip-hop pants with plain black ankle boots, and her tentacles take on a sea green-to-pink gradient. Her fingertips and navel piercing are colored purple.
• Characters in the cities and lobby such as Jellyfish, Staff, Judd, Murch, and Smallfry all wear pastel green, pastel pink, and aqua party hats decorated with various patterns.
• A special news article in the Nintendo Switch news will reward players with four unique pieces of headgear and eight pieces of shoes returning from the Splatoon 2 Splatfest event Hare vs. Tortoise:
  • Orange Novelty Visor
  • Pink Novelty Visor
  • Purple Novelty Visor
  • Green Novelty Visor
  • Pearl-Scout Lace-Ups
  • Pearlescent Squidkid IV
  • Pearl Punk Crowns
  • New-Day Arrows
  • Marination Lace-Ups
  • Rina Squidkid IV
  • Trooper Power Stripes
  • Midnight Slip-Ons
• Music is added or modified for the Splatfest.
  • A special progressive pop song, Meadowlark, plays in the lobby instead of Soak & Stomp. Crab-N-Go also plays a unique circus-style theme.
  • The title screen has a new sound, along with the Deep Cut intro.
  • Anarchy Poisons is modified for the Splatfest to add xylophones and a jaw harp.
  • Anarchy Rainbow is given an Irish-styled arrangement.
  • Opening is modified to add xylophones, bagpipes, and fiddles.
  • Ego Overboard and Still Swimmin' are remixed with a "bouncier" theme, with Ego Overboard played in swing time and featuring additional vocals from Big Man.
• The start of a battle is modified with bubbles appearing in the center of the screen. Bubbles also fill the air during the first few seconds of a match.
• This Splatfest has a special ink variant, with flecks in the other teams' colors resembling confetti or sprinkles being mixed in. This ink effect is not applied during mirror matches with the same team.
• The TV screens in Splatsville display unique videos related to the spring theme of the Splatfest.

The Tricolor Turf War stages for this Splatfest were Robo ROM-en and Bluefin Depot.

Shiver “When do you get things done? Morning, afternoon, or night?”	Big Man “Ay! (Let's get this Splatfest done!)”
Shiver “Obviously, I favor mornings, when the air is fresh and the possibilities are endless.”
	Frye “Nah, afternoon is peak. By then I'm all the way fueled and ready to go to town!”
	Big Man “Ay. (But consider night, when the hassles of the day are gone and you can focus.)”
	Frye “I have a question. Can the things we're getting done be anything?”
Shiver “I don't see why not. Hobbies, study, work– it's all fair game.”
	Big Man “Ay. (Speaking personally, I get all my best songwriting done at night.)”
	Big Man “Ay... (Though sometimes I get TOO in the zone, and the sun's up before I know it...)”
Shiver “Stay up too late, and you'll be too fried to do anything else the next day.”
	Big Man “Ay. (Yeah, but getting Frye'd is the whole reason I need my nights to myself.)”
Frye “I'm seriously sorry for the third emergency I called you about yesterday.”
Shiver “If you need more time, I suggest waking up early. The morning air is highly refreshing.”
Shiver “My head is clearest right after waking up, making it the ideal time to get to work.”	Frye “Yeah, you always were an early riser.”
Shiver “Even my calligraphy is more precise in the morning, before the day comes crashing in.”	Big Man “Ay! Ay. (I've noticed! The way you sign our checks is especially crisp then.)”
Frye “I'm Team Afternoon all the way. I run on solar power, and that's when I'm charged!”
Frye “Plus, unlike morning or night, no one can whine about my daily flute practice.”
	Big Man “Ay? Ay. (You practice at home? That's a noise complaint any time of day.)”
Frye “Says who?! The old folks where I live are always banging on the walls in time with me!”
	Frye “Here, lemme show you how all that practice has paid–”
Shiver “Let's finish this broadcast before you start tootling at us, hm?”
Notes: Shiver starts speaking as soon as Frye finished her quote, interrupting her.
	Big Man “Ay. Ay? (Wait. If we're split on this, when is the best time for us to work together?)”
Shiver “I suppose the best compromise would be for all of us to honor the Splatfest winner.”
Shiver “Meaning that if I win, you two had best be up bright and early for practice at 5 AM.”	Frye “Team, I'm begging you to win this for me. Please. PLEASE.”
Frye “Oh, don't forget this is the springtime fest! Did you pick up your special Spring gear?”	Big Man “Ay. Ay! (If not, check the Nintendo Switch News app. Enjoy the Spring Fest fashion!)”

	Big Man “Ay! (There's no time like nighttime!)”
Shiver “What a thing to wake up to!”	Frye “How?! Did we oversleep?!”
	Big Man “Ay. Ay! (Thanks, Team Night. You held out no matter how dark it seemed!)”
Shiver “Team Morning showed up bright and early, for all the good it did.”	Frye “Thanks to everyone on Team Afternoon for trying so hard on my behalf.”
Shiver “Did Team Night ever sleep?! Seemed like they were winning at every time of day.”	Frye “I liked it better when the thing they were so productive at wasn't "destroying us."”
	Big Man “Ay! (I'm looking forward to our next music practice being a night session!)”
Frye “Ooo. That does leave our afternoon free.”
	Frye “I've been itching to go bowling like we used to. Why not hit the lanes before we practice?”
Shiver “That sounds fantastic. I've been needing a bit more exercise lately.”
Shiver “Though it would conflict with that new shark documentary I wanted to see...”	Frye “Why not do both? We have all day before night falls!”
Shiver “Big Man, didn't you want a new spring coat? They might run out of stock soon.”	Big Man “Ay? (You remembered me saying that?)”
Frye “OK, so bowling in the morning, movie in the afternoon, shopping at night. Works for me!”	Big Man “Ay! Ay? (Sounds like a plan! Though...aren't we forgetting something important?)”

Мурия «Одобрила бы такую эффективность, если бы НАС не покромсали как морскую капусту...» (I'd approve of such efficiency, if only it weren't US who got shredded like laminaria...)
Notes: Frye's pun comes from the Russian saying "кромсать как капусту" ("to shred like a cabbage"), meaning "to defeat with ease, to destroy", and морская капуста morskaya kapusta ("laminaria"), which literal meaning is "sea cabbage".
	Биг Ман «Ик! Ик! (Ура, нас ждет ночная репетиция! Жду не дождусь!)» (Ay! Ay! (Hooray, a night practice awaits us! I can't wait!))
Мурия «Стоп!!! Значит, я весь день свободна?!» (Stop!!! It means that I'm free all day?!)
	Мурия «Айда в боулинг до репетиции, как раньше? Давно ведь не ходили!» (Let's go bowling before the practice like we used to? It's been a while since we did this!)
Кулла «Отличная идея. У меня в последнее время не очень подвижный образ жизни.» (An excellent idea. I haven't had a very active lifestyle lately.)
Кулла «Но тогда придется пропустить новый документальный фильм про акул...» (But then we'll have to miss the new shark documentary...)	Мурия «Это еще почему?! Мы все успеем, день длинный!» (And why so?! We'll have time for everything, the day is long enough!)
Кулла «Кстати, Биг Ман, ты же вроде хотел купить весеннее пальто? Вот и сходим!» (By the way, Big Man, didn't you want to buy a spring coat? Let's do it then!)	Биг Ман «Ик?! (Ты запомнила?!)» (Ay?! (Did you remember?!))
Мурия «ТАК! Значит, утром боулинг, днем кино, а шоппинг – ночью!» (ALRIGHT! So, bowling in the morning, movies in the afternoon, and at night, it's shopping!)	Биг Ман «Ик! Ик! (Шикарный план! Но мне кажется, мы о чем-то забываем...)» (Ay! Ay! (A brilliant plan! But I think we're forgetting something...))

Trivia

• The initial announcement for this Splatfest by the official North American Splatoon Twitter account named the second team "Noon" rather than its in-game name "Afternoon".
• The Pearlescent Squidkid IV have been depicted on the Dapple Dualies card since the release of Splatoon 3, making them the longest unavailable piece of gear depicted in Tableturf Battle until their addition alongside the SpringFest announcement on 21 March 2025.
• Unlike most Splatfest reminders, the text in NintendoEurope and NintendoAUNZ's posts is different. The NintendoEurope post contains a pun on the word "spring", which is removed in the NintendoAUNZ post, likely due to Australia and New Zealand being in the southern hemisphere, where it is autumn instead of spring.
• Team Night was the most popular team to win a Splatfest in Splatoon 3, overtaking Team Ghost by 5.55%. It was also the most popular Splatfest team in Splatoon 3 to date, overtaking Team Saturday by 2%.
