This thread will act as a single directory to all current and past event threads. I'll dress it up later. Here's the Past Event Museum.

Current Event:
What are Seasonal Events?
Seasonal Events are special battles or challenges that can be attended free for a limited time. Each event allows free first-time signups for the duration of the month, in the UTC time zone. (Starting from midnight on the 1st, or whenever we post it — whichever is later.)
Players sign up for Seasonal Events in teams of two or more players. Finding an ally to build a synergistic team with is crucial!
Each Seasonal Event builds upon an existing battle facility. A Seasonal Event may be a unique Realgam boss, a Raid Encounter, a Safari Habitat, or any other facility. Starting with the "base" facility's rules, the Seasonal Event will often modify the rules further.
Seasonal Events often bend the rules of normal BBP. Rental Pokemon, strange victory conditions, bizarre type charts, unusual status effects, obtuse methods of ordering, and more could all happen within. You and your teammates will have to be ready for anything!
What do I get?So materialistic. The best reward is having fun with other players!
Seasonal Events each list their own rewards, depending on the type of event.
Celebration Events occur in October, December, February, and April. These are major events with unique prizes, unobtainable anywhere else in the game. Accessing them outside of their event period is costly, so be sure to get in when you can!
Challenge Events occur in September, November, January, March, May, and June (That is, all remaining months except July and August.) These events fill the gaps between Celebration events, offering large sums of EXP or other prizes obtainable elsewhere.
No event occurs in July or August. BBP is often slow during these months — even our players sometimes touch grass. Take this as a chance to enjoy a break while you wait for the September rush!
Players earn the rewards specified for the Event only, not standard facility rewards.
Referees earn standard facility rewards for most events, with any TC, RC, or JC increased by 50%. In addition, reffing an event to completion awards a Star Piece.
How long do I have?
You can sign up for an event once without paying any entry fee, during the month and year that the event is scheduled for. After that month passes, the event will go in the Past Event Museum, below; and you'll be able to buy entry with JC and Vouchers.
Referees will have until the end of the next month to take your queued challenge before it expires. Each monthly event has its own queue, and referees may select challenges from either queue.
Once your challenge thread begins, you have four months to finish your challenge before it expires. Plenty of time for any reasonable challenge to complete. If your challenge drags on, consider using Referee Assist or sub-reffing to help it along. Time spent waiting for a subref does not count against this clock, and when a subref is found event, they are expected to post the new date and time at which the event will be forcibly ended.
Past Event MuseumDon't fret if you've missed a past event, for they can all be found here! Seasonal Events are never truly out-of-season in BBP.
For the right entry fee, all Generation 9 and later events can be revisited, even after their entry period. Details within!
Event Vouchers
These events can be revisited by spending different combinations of the following Event Vouchers:
Unlike during the free entry period, old events can be quite expensive to access. Event Vouchers are earned from challenging Level 4 facilities, and can take some time to accumulate. When revisiting an old event, you should be sure to prepare a strong team. It can help to refer to other players' finished challenges for team ideas!
Players pay their entry vouchers as a team, but each player in a team must pay at least one voucher for entry.
Celebration Events
These events run in specific months of the year, offering fantastic prizes that can't be gained anywhere else!
Challenge Events
These events run in the downtime between Celebration Events, offering unique co-op battles and large amounts of standard prizing.
Archived Events
These prototype events aren't accessible by through the Voucher system anymore, but they're still listed here for posterity.
