Splatfest ("Fes" or Festival in Japan[1]) is a special event that takes place in Splatoon.
Description
Splatfest is a recurring event hosted by the Squid Sisters, Callie and Marie. During this event, Inklings are able to choose between two teams and participate in battles against each other. Inklings are limited to two colors during the Splatfest, reflecting which side they're on. The clothing section of the equip screen also becomes locked and all players are forced to wear the Splatfest Tee, which changes in color and design based on an Inkling's chosen team. Inkopolis Plaza and all the stages are decorated with a flood of Miiverse posts from the Splatfest/Festival tag on the Splatoon community, some of which take the form of neon signs. Darkness also descends over Inkopolis and all Turf War stages. Fireworks go off periodically in the plaza, and specks of light resembling fireflies or fire embers can be seen rising into the sky.
Each Splatfest lasts 24 hours, during which time the region involved will be isolated and Splatfest players will only face off against players of their own region. Meanwhile all other regions will continue to play amongst each other. Super Sea Snails are awarded to members of the winning team upon Splatfest's conclusion. Template:Clear
Preparation
Before a Splatfest begins, Inkopolis Plaza experiences a variety of visual upgrades to prepare for the event. One week before a Splatfest, a voting booth appears next to the Miiverse Mailbox and the event's theme is announced. Inklings also receive a themed Splatfest Tee, a piece of gear that is wearable for a limited amount of time. Two days before a Splatfest, neon signs adorned with up-and-down-pointing arrows appear on walls and buildings. The day before it takes place, the Plaza becomes noticeably more crowded and two large trucks supporting stage scaffolding appear in the area's center.
Reward Tiers
Super Sea Snails are awarded to participants based on the size of their team, matches won, and ground covered, which dictate each player's Splatfest Title.

Splatfest EXP is earned by participating in and winning matches. Winning a match earns you 3 EXP, and your participation bonus is based on how much BP worth of ground you covered in ink during the match. If you cover 200–399 BP worth of ground, you earn 1 bonus participation EXP; if you cover 400+ BP worth of ground, you earn 2 bonus participation EXP. One can earn a maximum of 5 EXP per match if your team wins and you cover at least 400 BP worth of ground during the match.
Once Splatfest concludes, the results are announced during a broadcast. The results are based on team popularity, the percentage of the vote each team received, and wins, the percentage of matches each team won. Win percentage is worth double the value of popularity. Players are awarded Super Sea Snails based on the Splatfest Title they have earned. Players on the winning team will earn double the Super Sea Snails.
Victory
The final score is calculated based both on popularity and on wins. The formula is as follows:
Final Score = Popularity Percentage + (Win Percentage × 2)
Despite this, when the Squid Sisters announce the results, the highest of the popularity percentages gets highlighted, and so does the highest of the win percentages.
List of Splatfests
The following is a list of all Splatfest events and their durations. On each event in the table, the first choice is always sided by Callie while the second is sided by Marie.

Miiverse
Before and for the entire period of Splatfest players can post messages of support for their side to a special channel on Miiverse that will be displayed throughout Splatfest. This is done through a special option that shows up during Splatfest.[2]
Delays
While the first Splatfest event, in Japan, went by flawlessly, the first North American Splatfest was delayed. The reason given was because of matchmaking issues with Japanese players.[3]. The original schedule for the event was from June 20th (Sat) at 6 AM PDT to June 21st (Sun) at 6 AM PDT, and some days later, it was revealed that it would be moved to July 4th (Sat) at midnight PT.
The first European Splatfest event, that was meant to start on the 27th of June at midnight CEST, was equally postponed, so that it would take place on the same day as the North American one.
