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!
To complete your personal goal, you need to deliver 14 Valentine's Presents cargoes. Don’t worry, your hard work will be rewarded with charming Valentine-themed cabin items and an exclusive World of Trucks achievement. Don’t let this opportunity fly by, join in the fun and get hauling!

We can’t wait to see where the road takes you!
Yesterday, we officially wrapped up the #CruisingLouisianaWorld of Trucks Event, which was running for more than two months following the Louisiana DLC release. We are excited that our #BestCommunityEver managed to fulfill the community goal. And now it's time to look at the stats from this event!
We would like to thank all the 45,574 truckers who took part, and we hope you enjoyed hauling cargo through the Pelican State, along with earning the rewards available for completing the goals we set. Of course, we also want to send a big thanks to the dedicated team that prepared this event and its rewards.
As a community, players were tasked with collectively driving 125,000,000 miles while delivering goods to or from any city in Louisiana. On an individual level, truckers needed to complete deliveries to or from 10 different Louisiana cities. We are happy to share that the community milestone was reached one week ahead of the deadline, with a total of 132,663,569 miles driven. This means that everyone who also completed the personal goal can now enjoy the full set of rewards!
In addition to the World of Trucks achievement, the 29,200players who completed all required deliveries earned the Southern Wings ATS truck paint job and the Golden South hanging ornament. We can't wait to see your trucks rolling down the road, proudly decorated with these accessories.
And if you did not manage to finish the event and get the rewards, don't worry. We hope that you still enjoy driving in Louisiana and will continue to do so, as the journey matters more than the destination.
After more than two months, we have concluded the #CruisingNordicHorizons event on Sunday. We would like to thank all the 113,728 truckers for taking part! Now, let's take a look at how you managed to complete the set goals.
Before we get into it, we would also like to send a huge thanks to the dedicated team behind this event. We really appreciate all their hard work, and we are sure that our #BestCommunityEver does too!
As tradition goes, with every new map expansion, we launch a World of Trucks event with dedicated goals and rewards for our #BestCommunityEver. For #CruisingNordicHorizons, the community set out to drive a combined 300,000,000 kilometres while delivering cargo to or from any city featured in the Nordic Horizons DLC. With the personal goal, truckers were challenged to complete 18 contracts to or from six unique cities in each of the countries; Norway, Sweden, and Finland.
We're thrilled to report that you didn't just meet these goals, you absolutely smashed them. The community goal was reached in less than two weeks, and by the end of the event, the total distance driven had more than doubled, reaching an incredible 702,446,695 kilometres.
Meanwhile, 57,397 truckers completed the personal challenge and can now enjoy all the rewards: the Northern Tides ETS2 truck paint job, the Viking Helmet dashboard accessory, and a World of Trucks achievement. Now it's time to go trucking in the far north in style with the themed rewards you earned.
Even if you didn't complete the event, don't worry - the journey is what matters most, and we hope you've had (and will continue to have) plenty of fun hauling cargo across this map expansion.
On Sunday, we wrapped up the Woven Wonders of Winterland, our World of Trucks event that brought us back to this magical snowy map once again. Now it's time to look back and see how our community rose to the challenge and completed the milestones we set!
First, we'd like to thank everyone from our #BestCommunityEver who took part in the event, as well as our team who worked behind the scenes - making improvements and creating new rewards for you to enjoy. We're truly happy to see so many of you taking part!
The personal goal challenged truckers to complete 15 deliveries, including at least one delivery to or from each of the five depots. We're happy to share that 101,762 of you achieved this goal and can now enjoy your rewards: a World of Trucks Achievement, the Winter Woollies truck paint job, and - if you didn't already have it - last year's collection of six decorative festive exterior cab lighting arrays.
The community goal was to earn at least 1,000 Snowflakes for cities across all trucking territories (with one Snowflake awarded for every 1,000 deliveries completed between a city and Winterland). You achieved this goal as well, completing an impressive 2,263,339 deliveries across both games in less than a month!
This means that everyone who also completed their personal goals will receive all five Christmas-themed cabin accessory rewards. We hope you had fun dressing up your truck in true festive style with these!
Once again, thank you to everyone who took part! We're already looking forward to more events in the future. Make sure to follow us on our social media (X/Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, Bluesky, and YouTube), orsign up for our newsletter if you don't want to miss out on any news from our games. Until next time, happy travels!
The cold winds return to Winterland once again, carrying whispers of joy and echoes of seasons past. But something is different this year. The realm, once quiet and still, now hums with new life, warmth, and cosiness, not just of fire and festive light, but of memory, pattern, and tradition.
Each of the five magical depots, from the mountain glow of Snowy Peaks to the sweet halls of Marigold’s, have begun to weave their warm spirit into the fabric of the land. Their stories now ride with you, stitched into the trailers you haul: woollen patterns of festive charm, echoing the heart of each place and delivery made.
These aren't just cargo trailers, they’re moving tapestries, motifs of magic, crafted with love. They speak of chocolate and crafts, letters and laughter, snow and song, energy and life.
So, we welcome our #BestCommunityEver back to Winterland and invite you to take the wheel and help carry Winterland’s wonders, woven in joy, across the frost-kissed roads of this living, breathing realm in our Woven Wonders of Winterland event for
Euro Truck Simulator 2
and
American Truck Simulator!
Prepare to embark on a heart-warming Winterland journey! As the magical depots awaken and their woven motifs spread across the land, we’re calling on the community to help carry this newfound spirit far and wide. Your task is to gather 200 Snowflakes for cities across the map in each of the 5 tiers, 1,000 Snowflakes in total.
Every completed tier will reward you with a unique cabin item, each one inspired by the warm patterns and traditions of Winterland’s five enchanted depots. Step into the season, take the wheel, and let the tapestry of Winterland grow with every delivery you make!
This year, you'll notice far more activity along the roads than before. Local traffic glides past in festively painted vehicles, their colours and patterns echoing the magic of the depots themselves. Each encounter offers a spark of warmth to the frosted landscape, making the whole realm feel more alive than it has in seasons past.
You’ll be able to track the community progress on World of Trucks or directly in the game using the updated External Contracts interface.
Christmas Winterland Directions
A portal to Winterland appears once you accept event cargo bound for Winterland. Find it on the map and navigate to it. Look for the sparkles!
Leaving Winterland with cargo takes you to its destination; without cargo, you’ll be sent to a random city for a new job.
In preparation for your travels, we've also added a new Winterland Desktop Background Theme to your main menu, bringing the realm’s warmer glow straight to your screen.
Soft, cosy lighting now fills the world, a cabin radiates life and warmth from the hearth, and a parked vehicle rests beneath a blanket of snow, adding to the seasonal charm.
These touches deepen the seasonal atmosphere and set the stage for the adventures ahead.
Return to Winterland Event Rules:
Using External Contracts with a World of Trucks-connected profile in Euro Truck Simulator 2, American Truck Simulator or both, the community is to deliver supplies and gift packs to and from Christmas Winterland using as many cities as possible.
There are 5 different depots in Winterland for all deliveries, to and from. They are:
Christmas Market...a town square market
Marigold's...a chocolate factory
Northstar...a post office
Rudolph's Crafts...an arts workshop
Snowy Peaks...a mountain resort market
Your personal goal is to complete 15 deliveries for them including at least 1 delivery to or from each depot, using Euro Truck Simulator 2, American Truck Simulator or both games combined.
Snowflakes are gained for those cities that have delivered to or received from Winterland. For a city to receive 1 Snowflake, the community needs to complete 1000 deliveries between it and Winterland. Each city can receive up to 5 Snowflakes!
The community goal is to reach at least 1000 Snowflakes for cities across all trucking territories. A unique community reward will be unlocked for each tier of 200 Snowflakes accomplished, with 5 tiers in total.
Rewards
Personal: Your contribution of 15 or more deliveries to or from the 5 Christmas Winterland depots will gain you:
A special World of Trucks Achievement.
A wonderful Winter Woollies truck paint job
A bonus reward, for those that don't already have it, of last year's collection of 6 festive arrays of decorative exterior cab lighting, designed as truck accessories for each game. This collection is compatible with the top-tier trucks from all brands.
Community: There will be 5 tiers to unlock. Each tier will bring a special cabin item reward for both games, based on the 5 unique depots within Christmas Winterland, so let's hit the road!
The event will be concluded on Sunday, the 11th of January at 23:59 UTC.
We will also be hosting a special livestream with the devs, where we’ll explore how this year’s Christmas event was designed and created, in a relaxed conversation with our colleagues from the World of Trucks team, while also playing and contributing toward the community goal.

Until the next adventure, keep your lights on and your wheels turning.
Double, bubble, engine rumble, Through the marsh and forest, tumble. Fog drifts low and lanterns flicker, Magic stirs as night grows thicker.
In the swamp where wisps do play, Haul your load a ghostly way. Past the roots of crooked trees, Through the howl of autumn breeze.
Brackenhelm in moonlight glows, Winding roads where mystery flows. Cauldron brews and herbs ignite, Witches sing in veiled delight.
“Driver bold, come cross our land, With pumpkin magic treats in hand. From dock to keep, from vale to shore, Six runs you need—and maybe more!”
Autumn leaves and shadows dance, Air is thick with spectral chance. But fear not ghosts or forest groans— The witches guard these ancient stones.
So light your lamps and clutch the wheel, For Halloween tonight is real! Through portal gates you now shall go, To Brackenreach, where legends grow.
Upon return, attend the call, To spread the spooky treats for all, Not just to Brackenhelm as one, But cities, towns and everyone.
For Hauloween is in the air, And there’s no time to flee nor dare To hide away from all the treats That wait for you, but not to eat, NO, they must be hauled, delivered quick, Then parked away, now that’s the trick!
Get ready to roll this Halloween in our Witches of Brackenreach - World of Trucks event, a hauntingly delightful twist to your usual trucking journey, where mystery and challenge meet the open road. The adventure begins today for Euro Truck Simulator 2 and American Truck Simulator!
