Kingshot Thanksgiving Festival Guide (January 2026)
The Thanksgiving Festival has arrived in Kingshot, bringing a mix of daily cooking tasks, limited-time packs, alliance rewards, and progression boosts that players can capitalize on. While the event may resemble previous seasonal events, the Thanksgiving edition introduces new mechanics, a fresh reward structure, and a smart daily routine you should follow if you want the maximum payoff.
This Kingshot Thanksgiving Festival Guide covers everything you need to know—dishes, bags, ingredient sourcing, spending priorities, event passes, and which packs are worth buying.
1. Understanding the Thanksgiving Festival
The entire event revolves around cooking dishes, earning ingredients, opening Thanksgiving bags, and progressing through daily tasks. Although it seems like a long list of features at first glance, the structure is simple: complete the right two dishes every day, reach the 300-point reward chest, and avoid wasting ingredients early.
2. The Six Thanksgiving Dishes
You’ll see a total of six dishes, but only two of them matter each day. The game highlights which dishes are currently active for the day, and those are the only ones you should focus on.
Why only two dishes per day?
Because the event is designed to rotate dishes throughout its six-day duration. Completing the correct two each day gives you:
- Optimal ingredient efficiency
- Maximum chest rewards
- Consistent daily progress
If you try to stack everything for the last day, you’ll lose value. The event heavily rewards daily participation, not last-minute dumping.
3. The 300-Point Daily Chest
Every day, you can claim a 300-point chest. This chest contains some of the best free rewards in the entire festival, and the trick is to stop once you reach exactly 300 points.
Anything more is unnecessary because:
- Points do not roll over
- Ingredients are limited
- Tomorrow’s tasks will give you another chest anyway
Farm your 300, claim the chest, and save the rest for the next day.
4. How to Get Thanksgiving Bags
Thanksgiving bags are the core item needed to cook dishes. You’ll collect them from multiple parts of the event:
Sources of Thanksgiving Bags
- Supplies of Plenty
- Pattern of Plenty
- Autumn Blessing Pack
- Autumn Anthem
- Spending gems (not recommended)
- Spending speedups (not recommended for most players)
Free-to-Play & Moderate Spenders
Stick with:
- Gathering resources (unlimited)
- Defeating beasts (unlimited)
These two are your safest, most reliable bag sources without burning currency or hurting your long-term progression.
5. Ingredient Request System
A newer addition to the festival is the ingredient request feature. You can request specific ingredients from your alliance members and receive up to 50 ingredients each day.
Important Tips
- Free-to-play players should avoid giving away too many ingredients unless they’ve already hit their daily goals.
- Heavy spenders will usually be the main provider since they naturally get more bags.
Use this system only after securing your own 300-point threshold for the day.
6. Thanksgiving Rally Pass
This is the event’s mini battle pass. The free version gives decent progress, but the premium pass costs $5 and provides substantial value if you spend occasionally.
Who should buy it?
- Medium spenders
- Small spenders aiming to grow gradually
- Anyone who wants consistent account stats over time
For its price, it offers permanent stat boosts that add up each month.
7. Pattern of Plenty
This event section gives Thanksgiving bags but does not justify large point spending.
For free-to-play and mid-range players:
- Reach the last milestone target
- Collect the Thanksgiving bags
- Do not push rankings or overspend
There are far better events for burning resources and speedups than this one.
8. Autumn Anthem
Most Autumn Anthem tasks are free:
- Arena challenges
- Power increases
- Soldier training
The only paid step is purchasing a single $5 pack, which unlocks bonus Thanksgiving bags and True Gold for kingdoms that have unlocked it.
If you buy the $5 pack recommended earlier, you complete this effortlessly and collect solid rewards.
9. Pack Recommendations
Whether or not you buy packs during this event depends heavily on your spending style. Here’s the breakdown:
Best value pack
$5 Thanksgiving Pack
This pack:
- Provides the highest return per dollar
- Gives permanent squad defense stats
- Can be repeated every month for long-term growth
- Helps complete Autumn Anthem
- Gives substantial Thanksgiving bags
Even light spenders benefit from this pick.
For medium spenders
$10 Thanksgiving Rally Pack
The value comes from the high-tier materials that are normally expensive.
Heavy spenders / Whales
You’ll find:
- $20 packs
- $50 packs
- Multiple $100 packs
Whales should only consider these if aiming for permanent skins or alliance contributions. The premium castle skin costs $60, and while it looks good and gives movement speed, it’s strictly optional.
10. Thanksgiving Feast (Alliance Rewards)
The feast rewards depend entirely on alliance ranking.
Top alliances earn:
- Autumn Atrium
- Large chest amounts
- High-value table rewards
Lower ranks receive fewer rewards, but everyone benefits from consistent participation. Since alliances work together, your daily dish activity helps the entire group push toward better feast milestones.
