ACOTAR fans, get ready for a late-night Target run! Select Target stores are celebrating the release of Sarah J. Maas’ A Court of Splintered Harmony with a special midnight event on Monday, October 26, 2026.
The celebration runs from 9 p.m. until midnight. Guests can test their ACOTAR knowledge with trivia, enjoy the late-night atmosphere and be among the first to purchase the new book when it officially releases at midnight.
Even better, the first 100 guests at each participating store will receive a FREE ACOTAR keychain, while supplies last. Those guests will also receive a ticket allowing them to purchase A Court of Splintered Harmony at midnight. Please note that the book itself is not free.
How to Get the FREE ACOTAR Keychain
Visit a participating Target store on October 26 before the event begins at 9 p.m. Since only the first 100 guests at each location will receive a keychain, I recommend arriving early.
Once you arrive, look for the ACOTAR event area or ask a Target team member where the line is forming. Eligible guests will receive the free keychain and a ticket to purchase the new release at midnight.
