+1 Pickaxe Swing Escape Events: Admin Abuse Start Time and Countdown
The next event on +1 Pickaxe Swing Escape‘s calendar is another Admin Abuse drop, and the developer has it booked for Saturday, August 22, 2026. It runs a three-hour window from 11:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. ET (3:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. UTC, 8:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. PT, 4:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. BST).
That follows an earlier Admin Abuse event on August 8, which drew more than 900,000 players marking themselves as going. Interest in the August 22 return is already well into the hundreds of thousands. As of August 25, it’s the only event on the schedule, and we update this page as the developer announces new dates.
The experience itself remains one of Roblox’s busier climbers, with more than about 59,000,000 total visits and over about 90,000 favorites, and roughly about 2,800 players in-game at the moment.

Current and upcoming events
Admin Abuse — August 22, 2026
The developer has this booked as a new-content event but hasn’t spelled out what’s inside it — the listing carries only the Admin Abuse name and a call to join on Saturday. What’s different this time is the length of the window: three hours rather than the single hour the previous drop used, running from 11:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. ET.
Interest is building fast. about 770,000 players have already marked themselves as going ahead of the date — a strong turnout on its own, though still behind the August 8 event’s total.
Admin Abuse — August 8, 2026 (ended)
The prior Admin Abuse event ran on Saturday, August 8, in a one-hour window from 11:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. ET. It closed out with more than 900,000 players registering interest. The developer has now reused the Admin Abuse name for the August 22 date, so the two share a title even though they sit two weeks apart.
What the schedule shows about timing
Both events land on a Saturday in the late-morning ET slot, which has been the developer’s consistent choice for these drops. The gap between them is two weeks — August 8 to August 22 — so the recent rhythm looks closer to fortnightly than weekly, at least across the dates currently on the calendar. Nothing beyond August 22 has been announced; we’ll add later dates here as the developer schedules them.
