The next Golden Blitz in Monopoly GO is expected to begin on May 24, 2026, at 1 PM ET, and it should run for 24 hours. If you're planning your dice, sticker packs, or even a Monopoly Go Partners Event grind around it, this is the window to watch. The two featured gold stickers are Wake Up Goldilocks from Set 21 and Forest of Thorns from Set 23. These picks came from the Community Golden Blitz vote on the official Monopoly GO Discord, where players voted in separate polls for one four-star gold and one five-star gold. It's worth saying plainly: this "vote" means the Discord poll, not a hidden in-game voting button.
What actually unlocks during Golden Blitz
Golden Blitz doesn't open the whole gold sticker album. That's the bit players still get wrong, and honestly, it's an easy mistake when trade chats are moving fast. Only the two selected gold stickers become tradable. For the May 24 event, that means Wake Up Goldilocks and Forest of Thorns only. If you've got duplicates of another gold sticker, even a really painful one you've been saving, it stays locked. You also need a spare copy before you can send anything. One copy stays in your album, so the game won't let you trade away your only one.
Send limits and safer trades
Most recent Golden Blitz events have allowed up to five featured gold sticker sends, separate from the normal five daily sticker sends. So, in practice, you can trade golds during the Blitz and still use your regular sends for ordinary stickers. There's some wording floating around about "per event" versus "per day," but for a typical 24-hour Blitz, players should treat it as five gold sends. Use the exchange feature when you're dealing with people outside your close friend group. It's slower, sure, but it lets both sides check the sticker before anything goes through. Sending first to a stranger is where most bad trades start.
Recent Golden Blitz timeline
The Monopoly Ever After season has already had several Golden Blitz windows, and the pattern has been fairly steady across May. On May 1, Hook's Hook from Set 13 and Fox Ferry from Set 17 were featured. On May 7, Jabberwock from Set 14 and Enchanted Forest from Set 15 followed. On May 13, players traded Hightail It! from Set 19 and Feeling Snoozy from Set 21. The May 24 event now adds Wake Up Goldilocks from Set 21 and Forest of Thorns from Set 23. Older pages saying the next Blitz is still unannounced are likely behind the current Discord poll updates.
How to make the window count
Don't wait until the last hour if either sticker finishes a set for you. People run out of sends, chats get messy, and names get mixed up. Make a short list before the event starts: what you need, what you can offer, and whether stars are actually useful to you right now. A gold sticker that completes a set is often worth more than a pile of stars, especially if the set gives dice or another strong reward. If you're also checking outside deals such as Monopoly Go Partners Event for sale offers, keep your sticker trades separate and confirm every name, set number, and exchange screen before tapping accept.
