With the arrival of March, our Hearts in BloomWorld of Trucks event has officially come to a close. Throughout most of February, we celebrated the spirit of Valentine's Day with this special event, and now, it's time to take a moment to wrap things up and dive into some of the event's stats!
As always, we'd like to thank all the 168,414 truckers who participated and helped make it such a wonderful experience, as well as the dedicated team behind this event!
The community set out to complete 600,000 deliveries of Valentine's Presents across Euro Truck Simulator 2 and American Truck Simulator - and we're thrilled to say you crushed that goal in just over a week from the event's launch! In total, our incredible #BestCommunityEver delivered 1,257,426 Valentine's Presents cargoes and, in the process, traveled a remarkable 533,701,879 kilometres - beating last year's Valentine event in both milestones!
Congratulations to the 62,370 players who achieved the personal goal of completing 14 Valentine's Presents deliveries! Since the community goal was reached as well, you've earned a special World of Trucks achievement, along with two lovely cabin accessories for both games, designed by our team - the Hearts Blanket and Cupid's Cap.
We hope you have enjoyed hauling some love, and we look forward to seeing you on the road with your cabin decorated with these rewards. You can claim them in the Events page on your World of Trucks profile.
Join us in celebrating Valentine’s Day and the arrival of spring by taking part in our latest World of Trucks event - Hearts in Bloom, starting tomorrow, February 12, along with the release of the 1.58 update.
As the frost fades and the first blossoms appear, the open road comes alive with the sights and sounds of early spring, and with it, a lovely Valentine tradition returns. Now, as birds sing above winding country roads and petals scatter in the breeze, it’s your turn to become part of the story.
The winter's gone and the spring is here, Let's start it up with fire in your gear, So grab your keys and grab your wheel, For there's love to haul that you can seal.
From the top of the mountains down you steer, Through bloomy ways you have no fear, The engine hums an ode to your ear, Each mile unfolds a new frontier.
Petals of love rise from the trailing rear, As you deliver presents to the ones held near, And if the storm and shadow on the road reveal, You carry on bravely with your heart of steel.
We’d like to invite our #BestCommunityEver to help share the love all across the globe! Whether you’re delivering for that special someone or simply spreading the joy of spring, we encourage you to help reach the community goal of 600,000 Valentine’s Presents delivered to hearts around the world. Our talented artists have created a special Valentine-themed event trailer, so start your engines, truckers, there’s plenty of work awaiting!

On the 26th of February, this year's Valentine's Event "Cupid's Express" came to a close. So let's officially wrap it up together, look back at what it was about and what rewards our truckers earned!
First, a huge thank you to everyone who took part! We are so happy seeing you on the road hauling, especially when you share those moments with us on social media through photos, videos and other content. A special thanks also goes to the team behind it all!
As always, we set two challenges - one for individual players and one for the entire trucking community. The personal goal that every player had to accomplish to get the rewards was to complete 14 deliveries of Valentine's Presents. Our whole #BestCommunityEver then had to collectively finish 600,000 deliveries to accomplish the community goal.
So how did you do? Over 62,000 truckers completed all 14 deliveries for this event. Congratulations! And you have crushed the community milestone in just one week, that is incredible! In total, players completed 1,234,037 deliveries, double of what was the set goal. While hauling Valentine's Presents, you have travelled a distance of over 496,000,000 kilometres in both games!
And now let's take a look at the rewards. Those who completed their deliveries were awarded a unique World of Trucks Achievement as well as a Neon Heart dashboard item for both ETS2 and ATS. Because the collective target was reached as well, they will also get the Cupid's Dice hanging item!
We hope you are as excited as we are for the next event to come, but we won't tell you now what it is! Make sure to stay connected with us for all the updates by following our Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, Bluesky, and YouTube. We'd also really appreciate it if you could sign up for our newsletter to stay informed, even when you're not able to check out the blog or our socials. Until next time, we will see you on the road.
Join us today as we celebrate our latest World of Trucks event - Sweet Valentine!
All around the world gifts and romantic letters are exchanged between loved ones on February 14. The origin of Valentine’s Day can be traced all the way back to the 14th century when a famous English poet was the first to celebrate St. Valentine’s Day as a day of love through romantic poems. Shortly after real-life lovers began to send each other love poems on February 14th. Today about 145 million Valentine’s Day cards are sent each year, making it the largest card-sending holiday of the year.
To uphold this timeless tradition, we present our Sweet Valentine verse to you:
With trailers hitched, set out on this quest
The road is long, the task earnest
With 14 cargoes to deliver
Spread love's joy as we go together.
For we are united, in this grand endeavour
To deliver 500k presents with the #bestcommunityever.
For our effort, let us be driven
In gratitude, sweet rewards will be given
From city to city, far and wide
We'll transport presents, side by side
With a goal set high and spirits bright
Let's make this journey with love as our guide.
Thank you for joining this special time
For Valentine's day together we chime
The spirit of love, in which we praise
To cherish our loved ones in embrace.
We invite you, our #BestCommunityEver, to take part in our first ever event that celebrates the love for your sweetheart by delivering heart felt Valentines Presents across all trucking territories, with a community goal of 500,000 deliveries to make! You'll be impressed with our beautiful Valentines themed trailers that will be laiden with your special event cargo...
