Starlit Gala Wonderland Selects ran from 1 to 22 October 2026 in Genshin Impact’s Miliastra Wonderland. Players completed Celebration Objectives in featured community creations to earn Festive Fever and rewards including the Cryo Slime Hat, Primogems and Wonderland items. This in-game event has ended, but the wider Starlit Gala web event has a separate Year in Review reward.
Wonderland Selects and the Starlit Gala web event had different tasks. Festive Fever came from eligible featured Wonderlands and the community voting period ended on October 22. The web event continues into early November, with a personal report to view and share for additional rewards.
How Starlit Gala Wonderland Selects worked

During the event, open Miliastra Wonderland, select the Starlit Gala section and choose Wonderland Selects to see the featured creations. The official schedule ran from 1 October at 12:00 to 22 October at 03:59. That was the finished in-game window, not the closing date for all Starlit Gala web rewards.
Starlit Gala Wonderland Selects counted only eligible featured Wonderlands, not any creation in the browser. HoYoverse selected high-quality entries published before 25 September at 23:59 (GMT+8), excluding Early Access Wonderlands. Players needed to use the featured list to work towards its Celebration Objectives.
| Objective | What to do |
|---|---|
| Enter the event | Open Starlit Gala in Miliastra Wonderland and choose Wonderland Selects |
| Build Festive Fever | Complete Celebration Objectives in featured Wonderlands |
| Claim rewards | Return to the event page as Festive Fever thresholds unlock |
| Vote | Choose favourite featured Wonderlands before the event closes |
How to earn Festive Fever in Starlit Gala Wonderland Selects
Festive Fever came from completing Celebration Objectives in those featured Wonderlands. The process was to read the objective on the event page, play the relevant experience, complete its specific requirement and return to check the resulting progress.
Finishing a Wonderland alone did not always complete the selected objective. A player could enjoy the same stage repeatedly without earning more Festive Fever if the required task was different. The event rewarded the objectives rather than unrestricted time in Miliastra Wonderland.
Starlit Gala Wonderland Selects rewards
The original Starlit Gala Wonderland Selects rewards included the Cryo Slime Hat, Primogems, Geodes of Replication, Prismatic Crystals, Actions and Expressions. The hat was earned through the in-game Festive Fever track, while the other rewards supported play and customisation in Miliastra Wonderland.
The Wonderland Year in Review added on 22 October belongs to the separate web event. Viewing the full report and sharing its generated summary grants 100 Geodes of Replication and Delicate Heart facial makeup. Other web tasks offer extra Geodes, the V for Victory Manekin Action and 20,000 Mora. Our main Starlit Gala guide has the full claim instructions. Those are not Festive Fever rewards.
How the Cryo Slime Hat was earned
The Cryo Slime Hat came from the Festive Fever reward tiers during Starlit Gala Wonderland Selects. Players had to finish the relevant Celebration Objectives and claim the matching tier. It was not a standard shop purchase and did not require buying a cosmetic with Primogems.
After unlocking the required tier, players could claim the hat from the event interface and equip it through Miliastra Wonderland’s cosmetic options. Because Wonderland Selects has ended, those instructions describe how the limited reward was earned, not a method for claiming it anew today.
Voting in Starlit Gala Wonderland Selects
Players could vote for favourite featured Wonderlands. Those votes helped determine the 20 Wonderlands of the Year, although HoYoverse also considered the overall quality of the creations rather than relying only on vote totals.
Ordinary players could participate in Starlit Gala Wonderland Selects without publishing a creation. The separate Amongst the Thousand Stars creator contest was for people making and submitting their own Wonderlands; playing and voting in Selects did not require entering that contest.
Why Wonderland Selects no longer progresses
If Wonderland Selects no longer offers objectives or voting, check the date first: that part of the celebration closed on 22 October 2026. The later Year in Review report is accessed through the web event, not by returning to the old Festive Fever screen.
During the event, missing Festive Fever progress was usually worth checking against the active Celebration Objective and the featured Wonderland list. The relevant task needed to register; finishing an unrelated community stage wasn’t the same thing.
Starlit Gala Wonderland Selects rewarded a clear sequence of activity: choose a featured Wonderland, finish its Celebration Objective, collect Festive Fever rewards and vote. Those tasks are now historical. Anyone looking for remaining Starlit Gala prizes should focus on the separate web event.
