Current and upcoming events
Here’s a closer look at what’s next for Aura Dance Battles and what just wrapped.
Halloween Update + More
The Halloween update is the next event on the calendar. It goes live Saturday, October 24 at 12:30 PM ET and stays open through Saturday, October 31, giving players a full week to drop in. The title points to a Halloween theme bundled with additional content, though the specifics are the studio’s to reveal at launch. With about 86,000 players already signed up, it is shaping up as the biggest draw on the current schedule.
New Phonk + Emotes (recently ended)
Before Halloween, the New Phonk + Emotes update anchored the schedule for about two weeks. It ran in two consecutive windows — the first opening October 3, the second October 10 — each lasting roughly a week. The opening run was the standout, drawing more than 800,000 interested players, while the follow-up pulled nearly 400,000. As the name suggests, both centered on new phonk tracks and emotes for the dance floor.
Event timing and cadence
Aura Dance Battles doesn’t run on a fixed weekly clock — the two New Phonk + Emotes windows landed a week apart, while the Halloween update follows a two-week gap — but its drops have consistently opened at 12:30 PM ET (16:30 UTC). Players can expect fresh events roughly every one to two weeks, each running for several days before the next takes over.
