Saturday, August 24, 2024 - K.K. Slider will be performing from 6pm to midnight (Southern Hemisphere)

K.K. Slider is a traveling musician who has performed songs with his guitar in every version of Animal Crossing; he is a special, non-playable character who makes his return in Animal Crossing: New Horizons.

Unlike previous games, K.K. Slider will not appear in your town automatically in New Horizons. Instead you will need to raise the popularity and rating of your island, and help out Tom Nook with a variety of tasks to attract his attention.

Once you have fulfilled all of Tom Nook's requests, and achieve a Town Evaluation of 3 Stars, K.K. Slider will begin appearing at your town's plaza every Saturday (or Friday if there is already an event planned for Saturday).

K.K. Slider will set up an area full of chairs for villagers to sit and listen to him sing random songs - but he will not take requests for a specific song until 6PM or after. During this time, a player can request that he play a specific song, a song to fit a certain mood, or a song at random.
