League of Legends Best Events of All Time: Ranking, Details, Dates, and More


The League of Legends dev team is really quite generous to its masses of players. The game has frequent updates but also has loads of new content added with events.

The most recent event is the Star Guardian event which is happening right now. However, there are lots of other popular events that are loved by fans around the world. Many events cover regions of Runeterra or simply prepare for a new skin line.

But, let's have a look at some of the best events out there and what they bring to the table.

5) League of Legends Project event

The League of Legends project event was very hyped up for its return in 2021. The event has returned three times over the span of the event's history. Firstly, in 2015, then in 2017, and finally in 2021. The whole feel of the event is cyber-punk with mechanical armour for champions.

Additionally, there were some borders, icons and other cosmetics added to the event. However, the best part of this event was the long-awaited return of Nexus Blitz. One of the best-featured game modes in League of Legends history.

4) League of Legends Lunar Revel event

The Lunar Revel event appeared in early 2022. This event happens annually to celebrate the Chinese new year. 2022 was the year of the tiger so Sett was gifted a Golden Tiger skin for the event.

However, there was also other content added to celebrate this event. Missions were added to the game to receive some lunar revel and base game goodies.

3) Every April Fool's day

April Fools day is the time when pranksters can fool friends... hence the name. However, Riot games also like to participate in this trend as they regularly pull pranks on their fans.

In 2022, Riot decided to post patch notes from season 3 on Twitter. August followed this with "Some cool stuff in this one".

2) Bilgewater event

Riot titled this event Curse of the Drowned. The first ever event for Bilgewater was released in 2015 and was a huge success. This is why the revival of the event back in 2018 was so exciting.

There was a brand new ARAM map called Butcher's Bridge. This fits into the lore of Bilgewater and showed a bridge overlooking the region. The best addition to this event was the limited-time items added. Ghostwalkers let champions walk over walls, Spectral Cutlass was a teleport ability, and Bloodletters Veil granted a shield.

1) League of Legends Star Guardian events

The League of Legends Star guardian event is probably one of the best-known events in the game. This cutesy anime-inspired event is happening right now! There have also been previous iterations which were also just as successful.

One of the biggest parts of this event is the cutest skins that ever graced the Rift. There are a whole load of Star guardian skins which even manage to make Urgot cuter?!
