The Frozen Party was a party in Club Penguin that began on August 21 and ended on September 3, 2014.[1][2] It was first 'confirmed' by Spike Hike in a Spike Saturday meetup as a joke, but was later stated to be official.
It was based on the 2013 box office hit and Academy Award winning film Frozen.
Gary the Gadget Guy predicted nice weather, so the Party Committee plans a summer bash with sandy beaches and outdoor patios. However, reports begin to show a mix of both hot and cold temperatures, so Aunt Arctic decides to invite some of her friends from far away to join in.[3]
Many players in the fan community such as Twitter had been asking for a Frozen-related party before its confirmation.
Spike Hike once tweeted that they could make a Frozen Takeover if they got enough requests. And, at one time shortly before the party was announced, he stated that it was the most asked-for party.
In an interview, Polo Field said that the team has "something planned" in response to a question asking for confirmation of Spike Hike's confirmation of the party. But he could not say if the team was going to go through with it.[4]
There was a Frozen DVD package including a free 7 day Membership code and a code to unlock the Snowflake Costume found in Australia Target stores. [5]
Polo Field stated that the first hint about August would come in the Best Day Ever music video.[6] As promised, Olaf, the snowman from the movie, was spotted in Puffle form in the video at the 0:46 mark of the video.[7][8][9]
Another hint of this party to be held on August is the fact that on the 457th Issue of the Club Penguin Times in the Upcoming Events section, it says: Aug. 7 Penguin Style- Pretty cold for the summer... Check these costumes out in the Clothes Shop![10]
Yet another hint came in the #458th newspaper, reading "Aug. 7 - Penguin Style- Arendelle fashions hit the Clothes Shop".
Megg confirmed the Frozen Party by posting a confirmation stamp with a drawing of Olaf on the What's New Blog at the end of July 2014.[1]
The island was decorated like the fictional, Norwegian kingdom of Arendelle from the film. The Town, Plaza, and Dock was the kingdom castle and village area. The Forest has Wandering Oaken's Trading Post and Sauna. The Beach has the Valley of the Troll Rocks. Finally, the Cove and Snow Forts are based on Olaf's fantasy in the song In Summer from the film.
Polo Field explained a mechanic of the party in a sneak peek: "The team has put together something pretty cool for the Frozen Party. Members will be able to freeze all the party rooms by throwing special snowballs, and everyone can unfreeze the rooms by using the Heart emote. Awww! :)"[11]
This was the first party to be also held in the app, not including the Puffle Party 2014.
One week after the party started, you were able to go to Elsa's Ice Palace to see her perform and get ice furniture.
Instead of a special party catalog, special Frozen-inspired costumes are featured in the Penguin Style.
The Club Penguin Team had accidentally released the Penguin Style catalog a week before schedule on the app, however you could not buy these items at that time and they quickly took it down.
At the start of the party, when trying to collect the Ice Palace, it said the item was for members only. This glitch is know fixed.
At the start of the party, the "Welcome" message kept showing up even when you logged off and logged in again.
At the start of the party, if you changed rooms the Party Icon didn't show.
At the start of the party, the Snowflakes didn't show.
At the start of the party, you could not adopt the Snowman Puffle.
The party wasn't available on the CP App till later that day.
Before Elsa's performance was on August 28th, players that had the CP app had early access to her ice palace and were able to obtain the free ice furniture pack.
On the CP App, some penguins got a weird glitch making their penguin seem invisible while playing, but visible with transformations.
On the "collect" button on the ice furniture, there was a member sign on it, indicating it was for members. However, all penguins could collect it.
