Thymed Events is a game mode in Plants vs. Zombies 2, which was released alongside the 9.3 update. It is a limited-time event that appears next to the Travel Log icon. The mode is usually themed around a certain event, such as Fall Food Fight.
The mode also contains a set amount of levels, where every 5 levels are completed, a reward is given such as coins, piñatas, and seed packets for a plant. The game also requires energy, with 10 (20 in 10.9.1) being used per level. The player initially starts with 80 energy. Also, the player cannot restart a level and their progress will be lost.

Trivia[]
- Despite having unique lawns associated with their events, the Luck O' the Zombie, The Springening, Birthdayz, Summer Nights, and Harvest Festival events used the regular front lawn used in Modern Day.
- Further confusion is caused by these events using their respective special themed zombie designs for their levels.
- Big Brainz are currently the only recurring holidays that do not have a Thymed Event.
- In Update 11.0.1, after the player has collected all the remaining rewards for completing all given levels, the Thymed Event icon remains on the screen. If the player taps on said icon, the game will crash. This can occur whenever the player has no active Plant of the Week Thymed Event (if they have already completed it) or if the player has collected all the remaining rewards from a Plant of the Week Thymed Event occurring in standalone form. The only way for the completed "Thymed Event" icon to completely disappear is to enter another mode (such as Arena, Zen Garden, or an unlocked world) or close the Plants vs. Zombies 2 app and then restart it.
- This can also occur when the player has collected all the remaining rewards from the Thymed Event and then taps on the "Event Menu" button, resulting the game to crash.
- Power ups are often absent in these levels.
- Certain plants like power mints and often banned in these levels.
