I skidded to a stop in Toy Story when a violet shimmer at my feet made my heart skip. My companion sprinted, nudged it, and I realized how much I’d been missing by wandering blind. Two loops later I had a pocket full of eggs and a plan.
I’m going to walk you through where Purple Spring Eggs appear, how their timers work, and what you can craft with them so you spend less time guessing and more time collecting. I play on Steam and follow the official event blog from Gameloft for patch notes, and I’ll point you toward the best shortcuts I’ve found.
I opened the fast-travel map and noticed how few zones actually mattered before I started hunting.
Purple Spring Eggs appear only during the Eggstravaganza event and spawn across a handful of areas. They won’t pop up everywhere, which is good—fewer possible locations means faster clears if you prioritize the right spots. The 2026 spawns were concentrated in these locations:
- The Moana Realm
- The Toy Story Realm
- The Wall-E Realm
- The Mulan Realm
Previously the Beauty and the Beast and The Lion King areas also hosted spawns, but they were removed for 2026, which tightened the hunt. The official Eggstravaganza blog from Gameloft is useful when tracking yearly changes; I still saw eggs in Mulan despite it not being listed, so don’t skip it.
You can make the search painless by bringing spotting companions—Abigail, Amelia the Geese, or Pua will point and fetch from farther away, acting like a lighthouse in fog when you’ve missed a glint across a meadow.
Where do Purple Spring Eggs spawn?
Only in the four listed areas while Eggstravaganza is active. They won’t appear in other maps, and spawn pools are shared across those locations, so expect to hop between them if you want a full set quickly.
I started timing spawns with a stopwatch to see how long empty zones stayed empty.
Purple Spring Eggs respawn every five minutes, and the game caps their presence at a maximum of 10 across all eligible areas. That means if you sweep and pick up all 10, you’ll kick the spawn clock into a steady rhythm—perfect for farming.
If you’ve been away a while, do a full circuit and collect every visible egg so the five-minute windows begin aligning. Once you have that rhythm, farming becomes predictable and efficient—almost as handy as a magnet on a fridge when you want everything in reach.
How often do Purple Spring Eggs respawn?
Every five minutes. Use that timer to plan loops: clear small areas first (Toy Story and Moana are fastest), then check the larger ones if needed.
I dropped a Purple Spring Egg on the crafting table and watched the recipe list light up.
You can place Purple Spring Eggs as decorations or convert them into seasonal furniture. Below are the recipes that consume Purple Spring Eggs—keep the table handy while you plan collections.

What can I craft with Purple Spring Eggs?
High-cost decorative pieces like the Hanging Egg Chair demand 25 Purple Spring Eggs, so decide whether you want display items or a mix of craftables. If you’re farming specifically for one item, prioritize the smaller maps to stack spawns quickly.
My calendar had April 1 circled—this event only runs for a window each year.
The 2026 Eggstravaganza runs from April 1 to April 22. That gives you three weeks to gather materials, complete event quests, and craft the seasonal furniture before the spawns stop.
Quick practical notes: follow the Gameloft event blog for changes, check Steam and the Epic Games Store pages for platform-specific announcements, and skim Reddit threads or short YouTube guides for player-tested routes. If you’re on Twitter/X, creators often post compact timing tips and spawn maps that save time.
The event isn’t punishing—quests are easy and farming gets fast once you know which areas to sweep first—but missing a limited-piece set stings. Will you spend your next session methodically clearing small maps, or keep wandering and hope luck lands in your lap?
