Backyard Big Top is a Thymed Event that ran from January 7, 2022 to January 19, 2022. This event features the Backyard Big Top carnival troupe as they entertain the player's neighborhood.

As there is a big top covering the player's lawn, sun will not fall from the sky, similar to Dark Ages. Mechanics from other worlds such as Tombstones and Slider tiles are also present in some levels.
