Tracking Rainbow Weather in Heartopia
Rainbow weather in Heartopia shows up high in the sky, not on the ground. You’ll spot it only when you peek at your in-game watch. Tap the weather icon, then scan the week ahead to see if a rainbow icon appears. If you see one, a rainbow will show on that day. You must wait until the day before to learn the exact time. Then you have a short window to finish the special task: finding three Rainbow Bouquets.
When the next Global Rainbow Arrives
The next rainbow on the global server is set for 11:00 GMT on January 26, 2026. This guide focuses on that date and will be updated for future rainbows. Doris and the Rainbow Bouquet Bubbles stay in the same spots for every server.
Where to find Doris during a Rainbow
Doris appears right beneath the rainbow, wherever it sits in the sky. This makes her tougher to locate than during a meteor shower or rain or snow. If you want to find Doris, start by tracing the rainbow’s position.
What Doris carries during a Rainbow
During a rainbow, Doris offers two kinds of colored sugar. She also stocks a special emote and rainbow-themed postcards. Here are the item costs you’ll see:
– Coloured Sugar: 150–200 Gold each (20 units per color; two colors go on sale with each rainbow)
– Rainbow Emote: 2000 Gold (one copy; adds permanently to your emote collection)
– Postcards: 200 Gold each (five postcards available during a rainbow)
The rainbow bubbles and the Rainbow Bouquets
Three rainbow event bubbles appear around Heartopia when a rainbow graces the sky. Each bubble hides a rainbow clover that turns into a full Rainbow Bouquet when popped. If you locate all three bubbles, you’ll receive three Rainbow Bouquets every time a rainbow is visible.
– The first bubble always sits in front of your house.
– The second bubble floats above the big rock near the pools.
– The third bubble sits by the road, near a streetlight, circling a capybara statue.
What Rainbow Bouquets do for you
Rainbow Bouquets can be used solo or with others nearby. They grant a Rainbow Blessing that lasts 30 minutes. During this time, the blessing can trigger at random while you cook, fish, catch bugs, photograph birds, or sculpt a snowman. If the blessing activates, a banner appears at the top of your screen reading “Rainbow Blessing.” The item you just earned will gain an extra star.
You can water your flowers during a Rainbow Bouquet to try for free Rainbow Breeding Powder. This powder helps you cross-breed flowers. You can obtain it from Blanc at Gardening Level 6.

What to do during a rainbow
To maximize the event, grab the three rainbow bubbles to snag Rainbow Bouquets. Visit Doris to buy Sugar and other rainbow goodies. Then head out to fish or hunt insects to find creatures that only appear during rainbows.
How long rainbows last
A rainbow sticks around for six hours. If you peek at your watch, you’ll see it stays until the weather shifts. In Heartopia, that change happens on a six-hour cycle.
