Monopoly GO has hooked players around the world with its mix of classic board game fun and exciting in-game events. One of the events fans look forward to the most is the Sticker Boom, a flash event that makes it easier to finish sticker albums and earn big rewards. This guide breaks down everything you need to know about how Sticker Boom works, when the next one is happening, and how to get the most out of it.
What Is a Sticker Boom Event?
A Sticker Boom is a short-lived event in Monopoly GO where every sticker pack you open gives you 50% more stickers than usual. It’s one of the best times to try to complete your albums, especially if you’re missing a few tough-to-find stickers.
Here’s how it works:
- More stickers per pack: For example, if a pack normally has 6 stickers, it will give you 9 during Sticker Boom.
- Rounding down extra stickers: If the math leaves you with half a sticker, the game rounds it down. So a 5-card pack gives 2 extra cards instead of 2.5.
- Runs for 60 minutes per player: Once you log in during the event window, your own 60-minute countdown starts.
- Wild Stickers don’t get boosted: Wild Stickers are separate and don’t count for the extra cards.
Important: Any sticker pack you receive opens immediately when you get it, so plan ahead to make sure you’re collecting them during your active 60-minute window.

How Many Stickers Do You Get in Each Pack?
Here’s a quick look at how much more you get during Sticker Boom compared to normal play:
| Sticker Pack Type | Normal Amount | Sticker Boom Amount |
|---|---|---|
| Green (1-Star) | 1 | 3 |
| Orange (2-Star) | 2 | 5 |
| Pink (3-Star) | 2 | 5 |
| Blue (4-Star) | 4 | 6 |
| Purple (5-Star) | 6 | 9 |
Even packs with lower stars get a nice bump, which can help fill those tricky last spots in your album.
When Is the Next Sticker Boom Event?
The next confirmed Sticker Boom is:
- Start: June 30, 2025, at 21:00 UTC
- End: July 1, 2025, at 20:59 UTC
- Global window: 24 hours
- Your personal timer: 60 minutes from when you log in
This Sticker Boom is extra important because it’s the final one for the “Star Wars Go” album, which wraps up on July 2, 2025. After that, Monopoly GO will roll out the new “Summer Escape” album.
Why Sticker Booms Matter So Much
Sticker Booms are crucial for a few reasons:
- They help you finish albums faster, especially when you’re missing just a few stickers.
- They make high-level packs more valuable, so you get more bang for your buck.
- They give you better chances at pulling rare or missing stickers before an album ends.
With the Star Wars album ending soon, this upcoming Sticker Boom is your last big chance to complete it before it’s gone for good.
Best Tips to Prepare for Sticker Boom
If you want to get the most out of the next Sticker Boom, here’s what to do:
- Save Your Big Packs: Hold onto purple, blue, and swap packs until your Sticker Boom timer is running.
- Plan Your Login: Log in right at the start of the global window so you can pick the best time for your 60-minute session.
- Stockpile Stars and Vaults: Try to collect at least 700 stars ahead of time. You can trade these for the Gold Vault, which includes a Blue sticker pack, a five-star Purple sticker pack, and a Swap Pack.
- Wait to Open Community Chest: The Community Chest sometimes gives a Purple Sticker Pack, so it’s worth waiting until your Sticker Boom is active to open it.
- Take Part in Events:
- Tournaments: Events like “Sneaky Sprint” or “Space Sparkle” offer sticker packs as rewards, including a five-star pack for finishing at the top.
- Special Events: These often have Swap Packs or Wild Stickers up for grabs, which can help fill in album gaps.
- Treasure Digging Events: “Sticker Treasures” lets you smash blocks to earn sticker packs using tokens from daily events, Quick Wins, or store gifts.
- Peg-E Events: The Peg-E machine can drop extra sticker packs. Earn tokens through daily events, tournaments, or store freebies.
- Combine with Golden Blitz: If a Golden Blitz happens during the Sticker Boom, it’s the perfect time to trade gold stickers and boost your collection.
Other Ways to Score Stickers
Aside from Sticker Booms, you can also grab stickers through:
- Tournaments: Limited-time events where you can earn sticker packs for hitting milestones or placing on leaderboards.
- Special Events: Flash events with sticker rewards.
- Treasure Digging: Earn packs by using tokens to dig on a game board.
- Peg-E Machine: Another way to collect bonus sticker packs.
- Quick Wins: Daily and weekly tasks that often reward sticker packs or even Wild Stickers.
Don’t Forget About Golden Blitz
Golden Blitz is another popular event in Monopoly GO. It’s different from Sticker Boom but still helps with sticker collecting. During Golden Blitz, you can trade two specific gold stickers with other players for a limited time. It usually happens 4-5 times each season. The final Golden Blitz for the Star Wars album, featuring “Galaxy Gazing” (Set 19) and “Millennium Falcon” (Set 20), is set for July 1 to July 2, 2025.
If Golden Blitz and Sticker Boom overlap, it’s a great chance to wrap up those gold sticker sets.
