Farm 10K+ Candy FAST in Royale High (March 2026) Falling Leaves Guide

If you’re hunting for the fastest ways to stockpile candy in Royale High’s Falling Leaves Festival 2026, you’ve landed in the right place! The Halloween update has completely transformed how we earn candy this year, and I’m thrilled to share that the grind just got WAY easier.
Unlike last year’s timed events that had us waiting around for activities to unlock, the March 2026 Falling Leaves Festival lets you jump straight into unlimited candy farming. I’ve spent countless hours testing every single method, and I’m excited to reveal the exact strategies that helped me farm over 10,000 candies in just one week!
Whether you’re saving up for that coveted Magical Broomstick (100,000 candies) or just want to grab everything from the candy shop before the event ends, this comprehensive guide breaks down every candy-earning method from most to least efficient. Let’s turn your garden into a candy-printing empire!
How to Access the Falling Leaves Festival 2026?
Before diving into farming strategies, here’s how to access the festival:
- Launch Royale High and select Campus 4 from your realm menu
- Check the in-game time – The festival opens at 5:00 PM and closes at 12:00 AM (game time)
- Look for the Schedule button in the center of your screen to see today’s event times
- Collect 20 Tix from the ticket booth at the festival entrance (resets every night)
- Start farming! No level requirements or special access needed
Pro Tip: The festival runs from October 1, 2026 through early November, so you have plenty of time to collect candy. However, some methods have daily limits, so consistency beats marathon sessions!
Method #1: Leaf Collecting (MOST EFFICIENT) – 600 Candies
Candy Reward: 600 candies total
Time Required: 20-30 minutes
Tix Cost: 6 tix to participate in “Clean up 4 Candy”
Difficulty: Easy
This is hands down the #1 fastest way to farm candy in the Falling Leaves Festival. Here’s why leaf collecting dominates every other method:
How It Works?
Leaves are scattered everywhere across the festival map. Each leaf you collect gives you 1 candy, and there are approximately 600 leaves available in total. Unlike other mini-games that rely on leaderboard positions or skill, leaf collecting guarantees consistent rewards!
Two Ways to Collect Leaves
Option A: Clean up 4 Candy Mini-Game (Recommended)
- Pay 6 tix at the “Falling Leaves Clean Up! Clean 4 Candy!” booth
- Receive the Leaf Vacuum tool
- Collect 400-800 leaves (the game randomly assigns your target)
- Earn 1 candy for every 4 leaves collected
- Complete the target to earn the “Xtreme Leaf Collector!” badge
Option B: Free-Roaming Collection
- Simply walk around the festival map picking up leaves manually
- Each leaf = 1 candy (no mini-game required)
- Takes longer but costs zero tix
- Perfect when you’re out of tickets
Strategy Tips for Maximum Efficiency
Create a Route: Start from the barn area, sweep through the pumpkin patch, circle around the costume contest stage, and finish near the entrance. This systematic approach ensures you don’t miss any leaves.
Farm During Off-Peak Hours: Fewer players means more leaves available. Early morning or late evening (real-time) often has less competition.
Use Free Collection When Low on Tix: Since you can do this endlessly without limits, leaf collecting becomes your unlimited candy source when all other activities require tickets.
Combine with Baking Cooldowns: While waiting for baking recipes to complete, spend that time collecting leaves instead of standing idle.
I’ve personally collected all 600 leaves multiple times, and my fastest run took just 18 minutes! The best part? You can repeat this daily for consistent candy income.
Method #2: Sugar Dough Bakery Baking – 30-40 Candies Per Recipe
Candy Reward: 30-40 candies per recipe
Time Required: 3-5 minutes per recipe
Tix Cost: 2-4 tix per recipe
Difficulty: Easy to Medium
The bakery offers one of the best candy-to-time ratios in the festival. Here’s everything you need to master this delicious method:
Available Recipes & Rewards
The Sugar Dough Bakery features 7 rotating recipes:
| Recipe | Tix Cost | Candy Reward | Complexity |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chai Spiced Cupcakes | 2 | 30 | Easy |
| Pumpkin Spice Muffins | 2 | 30 | Easy |
| Corn Bread | 2 | 30 | Easy |
| Shortbread Cookie | 2 | 30 | Easy |
| Banana Nut Bread | 3 | 40 | Medium |
| Pumpkin Pie | 4 | 40 | Medium |
| Carrot Cake | 4 | 40 | Hard |
| Cinnamon Apple Pie | 4 | 40 | Hard |
Step-by-Step Baking Process
- Enter the Sugar Dough Bakery (located right side past the barn)
- Walk past the counter to the mixing station
- Choose your recipe – I recommend starting with 2-tix recipes for practice
- Collect ingredients from shelves and fridges in the prescribed order
- Mix ingredients in the container according to recipe instructions
- Bake in the oven – wait for the timer to complete
- Decorate if required – some recipes need final touches
- Claim your candies!
Pro Baking Strategies
Focus on 4-Tix Recipes: If you’re swimming in tickets, the 40-candy recipes offer the best return (10 candies per tix vs. 15 candies per tix for 2-tix recipes).
Memorize Ingredient Locations: After your first few bakes, you’ll remember where everything is stored, cutting your time in half.
Batch During Ticket Resets: Use all your tickets on baking right after collecting your daily 20 tix, then switch to free methods.
Make It Fun: The baking mini-game is genuinely enjoyable! Put on some Halloween music and treat it as a relaxing break from leaf vacuuming.
For players who love mini-games, baking strikes the perfect balance between engagement and reward. I usually complete 4-5 recipes per night, netting me 120-200 candies in under 20 minutes!
Method #3: Pumpkin Patch Harvest – 40+ Candies
Candy Reward: 20-100 candies (based on leaderboard position)
Time Required: 3-5 minutes per event
Tix Cost: Free (scheduled event)
Difficulty: Medium
The Pumpkin Patch Harvest is a scheduled event that offers solid candy rewards for minimal effort. Here’s how to maximize your harvest:
How Pumpkin Harvest Works?
- Scheduled Event: Check your event schedule for timing
- Objective: Find and weigh the heaviest pumpkin before time expires
- Pumpkin Weights: Range from 8-300 lbs
- Winner Gets Most Candy: The player with the heaviest pumpkin receives 100 candies
- All Participants Get Rewards: Even lower positions receive 20-40 candies
Winning Strategy
Scout While Running: As you pick up pumpkins, visually scan for the LARGEST ones – they’re usually the heaviest.
Bigger = Heavier: Giant pumpkins consistently weigh 200+ lbs, while smaller ones rarely exceed 50 lbs.
Don’t Waste Time on Smalls: If you grab a pumpkin under 30 lbs, immediately drop it and find a bigger one.
Use Height Advantage: Fly above the patch to spot the largest pumpkins quickly before other players grab them.
Weigh Multiple Times: You can keep weighing new pumpkins until time runs out if you find a heavier one!
Realistic Expectations
Even if you don’t win first place, the average rewards (30-40 candies) for just 3 minutes of effort make this worthwhile. I recommend participating every time this event appears on your schedule.
Combine pumpkin harvesting with apple picking (another scheduled event with similar rewards) to maximize your scheduled event candy income!
Method #4: Scheduled Events – 20-100 Candies Each
Several other scheduled events offer candy rewards. Here’s the complete breakdown:
Apple Picking Contest
Candy Reward: 20-100 candies
How It Works: Fly through large apples or click them on trees
Strategy: Speed is everything – keep moving and click rapidly
Bonus: All participants receive the “Apple Cider” tool
Costume Contest
Candy Reward: 30 candies per vote received
How It Works: Dress according to theme, walk on stage, receive votes
Strategy: Unlike previous years, there’s NO theme – just dress impressively!
Unique: Top 3 contestants receive “Winner Bouquet of Roses” tool
Pro Tip: Check out our Royale High Silk Spun Halo guide for outfit inspiration
Witches’ Night Flight
Candy Reward: Varies based on collection amount
How It Works: Fly with a temporary broom collecting 50 glowing candies
Strategy: Follow the candy path efficiently – they’re set in a specific route
Note: The “Faster Flight!” gamepass does NOT affect the broom
Spooky Corn Maze
Candy Reward: 20-150 candies (time-based)
How It Works: Navigate the maze to find the exit portal within 120 seconds
Strategy: Head right and follow the lights – exit usually spawns right side
Difficulty: Most challenging event but highest potential rewards
Event Schedule Pro Tip: Events cycle every 7 minutes with scheduled downtime. Plan your leaf collecting during the 7-minute breaks between events to maximize efficiency!
Method #5: Non-Scheduled Mini-Games – 17-30 Candies
These mini-games are available anytime the festival is open (5 PM – 12 AM):
Acorn Counting
Candy Reward: 17-25 candies
Tix Cost: 1 tix
Location: Right side of barn, in front of Sugar Dough Bakery
How It Works: Count acorns falling on screen (10-30 acorns per round)
Strategy: Don’t try to count in your head – tap a finger for each acorn
Difficulty: Easiest mini-game in the festival
Card Matching Game
Candy Reward: 20-30 candies
Tix Cost: 1 tix (displays 2 but only charges 1)
Location: Moonlight Divination tent (left of rollercoaster)
How It Works: Classic memory card matching with 16 cards
Strategy: Focus on one quadrant at a time for better recall
Cards: Vampire, candy, pumpkins, zombie witch, and clown
Cost-Benefit Analysis
While these mini-games are fun, they’re not the most efficient candy farming methods:
- Acorn Counting: 17-25 candies for 1 tix (1 minute) = Good value
- Card Matching: 20-30 candies for 1 tix (2 minutes) = Decent value
- Leaf Collecting: 600 candies for 6 tix (20 minutes) = BEST value
My Recommendation: Play these for variety and fun, but don’t prioritize them over leaves and baking when you’re seriously farming!
Understanding Tix (Tickets) & Daily Limits
The ticket system is crucial for planning your candy farming strategy:
Ticket Basics
- Daily Allocation: 20 free tix per night
- Reset Time: Resets when the festival opens at 5:00 PM in-game
- Collection Location: Ticket booth at festival entrance
- Cooldown: 30-minute cooldown between ticket collections
Smart Ticket Management
Priority Spending Order:
- Leaf Vacuum (6 tix) – Highest return on investment
- Baking Recipes (2-4 tix each) – Efficient and enjoyable
- Mini-Games (1-2 tix each) – For fun after main farming
Ticket Strategy: With 20 tix, I recommend spending 6 on leaves (150+ candies), 12 on baking (180-240 candies), and save 2 for your favorite mini-game. This nets you approximately 350-400 candies just from your daily tickets!
Unlimited Farming Secret: Remember, free leaf collecting requires ZERO tix and can be done endlessly. This is your unlimited candy source when tickets run out!
Advanced Candy Farming Strategies March 2026
Now that you know all the methods, here’s how to combine them for maximum efficiency:
The Ultimate Daily Routine (1,000+ Candies/Day)
5:00 PM (Festival Opens):
- Collect your 20 tix immediately
- Spend 6 tix on Leaf Vacuum mini-game (150-200 candies in 10 minutes)
5:15 PM – 6:00 PM:
- Participate in all scheduled events as they appear (200-300 candies total)
- During 7-minute breaks, free-collect leaves (50-100 candies)
6:00 PM – 7:30 PM:
- Use remaining 12 tix on baking recipes (180-240 candies)
- While recipes bake, continue free leaf collecting (200-300 candies)
7:30 PM – Close:
- Free leaf collection marathon for final push (100-200 candies)
- Play 1-2 mini-games for fun if desired (40-50 candies)
Daily Total: 920-1,390 candies in approximately 2-3 hours!
Weekend Farming Strategy
Dedicate one weekend day to serious candy farming:
- Morning Session (2 hours): Focus entirely on free leaf collection – aim for all 600 leaves
- Afternoon Session (1 hour): Participate in every scheduled event cycle
- Evening Session (1 hour): Spend all tix on baking while collecting remaining leaves
Weekend Target: 1,500-2,000 candies in one dedicated farming day!
Efficiency Hacks
Use Private Servers: If you have access, private servers guarantee all leaves are available with zero competition. For more Royale High private server benefits, check our Royale High Mermaid Update guide.
Farm During Low-Traffic Times: Real-world mornings and weekday afternoons typically have fewer players.
Track Your Progress: Keep a notepad tracking your daily candy totals to stay motivated.
Set Mini-Goals: Instead of “100,000 candies for broomstick,” aim for “1,000 candies today” to avoid burnout.

Common Candy Farming Mistakes to Avoid
After helping dozens of players optimize their farming, here are the biggest mistakes I see:
Mistake #1: Ignoring Free Leaf Collection
The Problem: Players waste all their tix on mini-games that give 20-30 candies when they could get 600 for free.
The Solution: Prioritize the Leaf Vacuum mini-game, then spend extra time on free collection. This alone can triple your daily candy income!
Mistake #2: Only Farming During Scheduled Events
The Problem: Scheduled events have 7-minute gaps. Players stand idle during these breaks.
The Solution: Use every single minute! Collect leaves during gaps, bake during flight events, and stack activities for maximum efficiency.
Mistake #3: Inefficient Ticket Spending
The Problem: Spending 4 tix on the rollercoaster (0 candy reward) or other non-candy activities.
The Solution: Save tickets exclusively for candy-earning activities until you’ve bought all shop items you want.
Mistake #4: Not Setting Realistic Goals
The Problem: Trying to farm 100,000 candies in one week leads to burnout.
The Solution: Set daily/weekly goals. Even farming just 500 candies/day gets you 15,000 in a month!
Mistake #5: Forgetting to Claim Daily Tix
The Problem: Missing a day means losing 20 tix worth 350-400 potential candies.
The Solution: Log in EVERY day even for just 15 minutes to collect tix and do one quick farming session. Consistency beats marathon sessions!
Troubleshooting Common Issues
“I can’t find all the leaves!”
Solution: Leaves spawn in specific locations. Start fresh from the barn and systematically cover every area. Some leaves blend with the ground color – look carefully!
“The Leaf Vacuum isn’t working!”
Solution: Make sure you’ve paid the 6 tix at the “Clean up 4 Candy” booth. The vacuum only works while the mini-game is active. Also check that you’re inside the festival boundaries.
“I’m not getting candy from events!”
Solution: You must actively participate (collect apples, find pumpkins, etc.) to receive rewards. Simply being present doesn’t count. Also ensure you clicked “GO!” when the event started.
“My tickets didn’t reset!”
Solution: Tickets reset when the festival opens at 5:00 PM in-game time, not real-world time. Check your world’s current time in the game. Also, there’s a 30-minute cooldown between collections.
“I keep losing at Corn Maze!”
Solution: This is the hardest event. Head right immediately, follow the lights, and don’t backtrack. It takes practice! Focus on other methods if mazes frustrate you.

Frequently Asked Questions
When does the Falling Leaves Festival 2026 end?
The festival runs from October 1, 2026 through early November 2026 (exact end date typically announced 1-2 weeks before ending). Monitor official Royale High social media for the final date announcement!
Can I trade candy with other players?
No, candy is a non-tradeable currency. However, you CAN trade the items you purchase with candy! This makes farming candy essential since you can’t receive or buy it from other players.
Do candies from last year carry over?
Yes! If you had leftover candy from Halloween [cy-1], it carries over to 2026. This has been consistent since Halloween 2020, so save any unused candy for next year’s event.
What’s the absolute fastest way to get 10,000 candies?
Combining all methods: Collect all 600 leaves daily (600 candies), participate in all 4-5 scheduled events (200-300 candies), complete 4-5 baking recipes (120-200 candies), and fill gaps with free leaf collection (100-200 candies). This nets 1,000-1,300 candies daily, reaching 10,000 in just 8-10 days of consistent farming!
Can I farm candy on mobile?
Absolutely! All farming methods work identically on mobile, PC, and console. The touch controls for leaf collecting are actually quite intuitive on mobile devices.
Is there a daily candy limit?
No! Unlike some games with daily caps, Royale High has NO limit on how much candy you can earn per day. Farm to your heart’s content! The only “limit” is the 20 daily tix, but free methods remain unlimited.
Do I need any gamepass to farm efficiently?
No gamepasses are required! The “Faster Flight!” gamepass doesn’t even work on event brooms. Every farming method is 100% free-to-play accessible.
What happens to candy shop items after the event?
Most items become unavailable for purchase until next Halloween. However, items you already purchased remain in your inventory forever and can be traded year-round. This is why getting the exclusive 2026 Candy Bag is so important!
