Palia’s first event is here, and the Maji Market doesn’t disappoint. The cozy MMO may not have bosses to take down, but the fun and relaxing minigames you’ll find around the nighttime market are just as impressive. The Maji Market will be the first event players get to experience, and developers have promised it’ll be a recurring event as well.
With that being said, there are a lot of different parts to the market. Here’s everything you need to know about Palia’s Maji Market.
The First Palia Maji Market
The Maji Market takes place from Tuesday, August 29th to Tuesday, September 26th. While the actual fairgrounds will be open all day in-game, the actual games and trading goes on from 6pm to 3am.
How to Get to the Maji Market
There are two ways you can get to the Maji Market in Palia. First, you can walk to the fairgrounds, which are located at the bottom right of the main map as shown below.
You can also teleport there from any teleport billboard.
Chapaa Chasers
During the Maji Market, you can take part in the Chapaa Chasers minigame. During the game, Chapaas will appear around the market, and your goal is to grab them and put them back in their pen. Chapaas will randomly spawn, and you’ll need to find as many as you can in a five-minute window to win tickets. Each Chapaa you put back in the pen gives you 10 Chapaa Tickets.
The game starts at midnight each night of the Maji Market. There are several stamp cards that require you to play this game, and some of them require you to be in a party.
You can capture the Chapaas by running up to them and pressing ‘F.’ They can be a bit tricky to see, especially if a lot of other players have pets out, but they have a sparkle to the air around them. Once you’ve caught one, place it in the pen by the entrance to the Maji Market where Kenyatta stands.
Tip: You can essentially spawn trap the Chapaas by running around the back of the enclosure. They spawn in other places, but there are several that spawn in that area frequently, so it gives you a good chance to get a lot of tickets quickly. Plus, they’re close to the enclosure, so you don’t have to worry too much about wasting time running with a Chapaa in your arms.
Maji Market Stamp Cards
One aspect of the Maji Market is the stamp cards. These are like quests (but not actually quests) that you can complete during the Maji Market that gives you a stamp once you complete them. Getting stamps will give you rewards, including more Chapaa Tickets, decorations for your home, food, and fireworks.
You can view these and your personal progress on each card by looking at the events page. Here are all the stamp cards:
- Maji Market Patron: visit the Maji Market when it’s open
- Maji Market Foodie: Eat 7 Savory dishes from the Maji Market
- Kenyatta’s Cravings: Complete Kenyatta’s Cravings Quest
- Maji Market Mayhem: Complete the Maji Market Mayhem Quest
- Just Desserts: Eat 11 sweet dishes from the Maji Market
- Chapaa Chaser I/II/III: Catch 20/50/100 Chapaas total during Chapaa Chase
- Chapaa Champion I/II/III: Catch 5/15/25 Chapaas in one game of Chapaa Chase
- Chapaa Chasers Party I/II/III: Catch 60/150/300 Chapaas total as a party in Chapaa Chase
- Chapaa Champions Party I/II/III: Catch 15/45/75 Chapaas as a party in one game of Chapaa Chase
- Big Ticket Items I/II/III: Spend 1k/5k/10k Chapaa Tickets
- Make It Go Boom I/II/III: Set off 1/5/10 Fireworks at the Maji Market
- Maji Drum Circle I/II: Hit the final drum to set off the fireworks 1/3 times
Tip: For some of these stamp cards, you will need to be in a party. If you don’t know anyone else who plays but you want to get all the stamps, then ask the server chat if anyone’s looking for party members for the Maji Market!

Maji Market Quests
There are a few different quests that are part of the Maji Market.
The first quest is simply The Maji Market, and you’ll get this quest in the mail the first time you check it during the event.
Another quest is Kenyatta’s Cravings, which you’ll get when talking to Kenyatta during the Maji Market (don’t worry if it doesn’t trigger the first time you visit the Maji Market). She’ll ask you to buy food from Reth’s stall at the market and bring it to her. Simply buy food from Reth’s stall, which has food items that are listed as Reth’s, and bring it back to her.
Once you’ve brought Kenyatta food, she’ll ask you to get explosives from Najuma. Head to her by looking at her location on the map and buy some fireworks, then bring them back to Kenyatta. She’ll then tell you to set the fireworks off in front of the Chapaa enclosure. Once you’ve set the fireworks there, return to Kenyatta.
She explains that the sound of the fireworks scared the Chapaas from their pens and asks you to go find them. You can see their locations in the image below:
Once you’ve found them, you can place them all back in the pen by going up to the pen and interacting with it (‘F.’) Kenyatta will thank you for your help and for making the night entertaining, and that’s all there is.
Another quest is the Maji Market Mayhem quest. You can start this quest after you’ve finished the Kenyatta’s Cravings quest by talking to Eshe (again, don’t worry if it doesn’t trigger the same night). Eshe will ask you to speak to Delaila while she’s at her stall.
Delaila will ask for help locating her ice cream machine parts, and your first clue will be to go speak to Reth. He’ll give you some spare parts on the condition that you taste-test something for him later. Give those to Deliaila, and she’ll reward you.
Next, you’ll be tasked with telling Reth the good news that the parts worked out. He has to be working his stall, so wait for him to be there to trigger the quest. Reth will then tell you that he gave Delaila his own parts and that he needs you to find Delaila’s parts scattered around the market. You can find them at the locations in the image below:
After you’ve found them all, give them back to Reth. He’ll give you something to taste-test, and once you’ve eaten from your inventory you can tell him the results. After you’ve done that, you can report to Eshe that the Maji Market is a success and is thriving.
Eshe will question the quality of the market, and you can choose whether or not to say that Resh or Delaila are doing well in response. Afterward, she’ll laugh and tell you to bring her something she enjoys. To do that, go to the person who you said was doing well in your conversation with Eshe, and they’ll give you something to give her.
Give Eshe the dessert you obtained, and you’ll have completed the quest!
