Moonlight Trail's Next Locations: Santiago, Chile on October 1 - and Bulgaria in 2027

Minecraft Experience: Moonlight Trail is going to Santiago, Chile. The event's next city has not been announced on Minecraft's own channels yet, but it is already sitting in public: a live Fever listing for Minecraft Experience: Moonlight Trail in Santiago states an opening date of October 1, 2026 and a venue - Parque Metropolitano, Avenida El Cerro 1905.

And there is a second location further out. People familiar with the plans say a 2027 run is lined up for Bulgaria. That one is not confirmed - no announcement, no city, no exact dates - but it is the first concrete indication of where the trail goes after Chile, and it points the tour at Europe for the first time.

The scoop in two lines. Confirmed: Santiago, Chile - Parque Metropolitano, opening October 1, 2026, per a live Fever listing. Unconfirmed: Bulgaria in 2027, per people familiar with the plans - no official word, no city, no exact dates.

Santiago, Chile: what the Fever listing actually says

The evidence for Chile is not a rumour or a screenshot - it is a purchasable product page. Ticketing partners do not stand up localised, live listings for events that are not going ahead, which is why this counts as confirmation even ahead of an official Minecraft announcement. And because it is a real listing, it comes with real detail attached.

Stated on the listing, in its own words:

What the listing does not say

Publishing early is only worth doing if the gaps are marked as gaps, so here they are:

Bulgaria, 2027: what we are told, and what we are not

Unconfirmed. People familiar with the plans say a 2027 Moonlight Trail run is lined up for Bulgaria. There is no official announcement, no named city and no dates. We are reporting it as a signal about where the tour is heading, not as a settled fact.

Worth being precise about what this is and is not. It is not a leaked poster, a listing, or a statement from Mojang or the event's producers - it is information from people close to the planning, which is exactly the category of claim that sometimes turns out early and sometimes turns out wrong. What makes it interesting is direction: every Moonlight Trail run so far has been in South America, and Bulgaria would move the format to Europe.

The bar for upgrading it from rumour to confirmed is the same bar Chile just cleared: an official channel saying so, or a live ticketing listing with a venue and a date. Until Bulgaria has one of those, it stays in the rumour column - and if you see anyone selling tickets, merch or cape codes for a Bulgarian Moonlight Trail today, that is a straightforward scam. We do not sell capes for events that have not happened, a rule we wrote up in detail in our Alton Towers rumour check.

Background: Argentina has ended

For context on why a new city matters: Moonlight Trail's first and until now only run was at Ciudad Universitaria in Buenos Aires, Argentina, and it has finished - it closed on August 9, 2026, already extended by a week from an original August 2 close. Santiago is therefore the event's second city, not a second simultaneous location. The full Moonlight Trail Cape story covers how that first run and its code delivery worked.

One knock-on effect worth a line: because Moonlight Trail Cape codes are only created by people attending in person, the pool of codes in existence stopped growing when Buenos Aires closed, and it stays fixed until a new run starts issuing them. We are not going to predict what that does to prices - anyone who claims to know is selling something - but it does mean October 1 is a real inflection point for the cape, not just for the tour.

How to get the Moonlight Trail Cape

  1. Attend in person. Buy a ticket through the official channel, have it scanned on site, and complete the trail. In Buenos Aires a single-use code arrived by email within about 72 hours - one per attendee. Santiago is expected to work the same way, though the official Chile FAQ is not published yet.
  2. Redeem the code. Enter it at minecraft.net/redeem while signed in with your Microsoft account, and the cape attaches to that account. Nobody legitimate ever needs your password.
  3. Or buy an unused code. If a trip to Santiago is not happening, MC Capers stocks Moonlight Trail Capes sourced from original attendees, verified working before delivery. Our guide to getting a Minecraft cape in 2026 walks through every other route, and the shop shows what is in stock right now.

When does Moonlight Trail Chile open?

October 1, 2026. No closing date has been published, so the length of the run is unknown. Expect a walk of roughly 60 to 80 minutes.

Is Moonlight Trail coming to Bulgaria in 2027?

People familiar with the plans say yes, but it is unconfirmed - no official announcement, no city, no exact dates. We will update this page if that changes.
