On December 3, 2012, ''The Simpsons: Tapped Out''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s official Facebook page posted a message: "Let it snow! Springfield's in for some holiday magic with a big new update... coming soon!" - which implied that the update would be released sometime in the first week of December. It was announced on ''Tapped Out''<nowiki>'s</nowiki> Facebook page on December 4 that the holiday update would be released on December 5 (the same day when ''Tapped Out'' would no longer be able to be played on 1st and 2nd generation iPod touches and iPhones), and in that post was also an image of Santa Homer - a new outfit for Homer that was introduced in the update. With the update also comes a new icon for the game, and a new opening menu.

The features were going to be available until January 3, 2013; it was announced through ''Tapped Out''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s Facebook page on December 19, 2012 that the time the Christmas content would be available had been extended. Until January 2, 2013, it was unknown what date it has been extended to; on that date there was an update, changing the end date of the Christmas content from January 3, 2013 to January 10, 2013.

Many users on the ''Tapped Out'' forums [http://forum.ea.com/eaforum/posts/list/15/9150424.page reported] that they had seen Kodos shooting at the ray gun in her spaceship while she flies across a friend's Springfield. Many thought it was a bug, but it is likely a clue to what could happen next - Kodos being introduced as a character.

Also, many users on the ''Tapped Out'' forums reported (one even showing an image) that [[Gil Gunderson]] would appear and give the player a 25% off offer on donuts. This was true, but EA had removed Gil from the game, presumably because of the problems surrounding ''Tapped Out'' players being locked out of their games. On December 19, 2012, users reported that Gil had appeared in their Springfield after an update. This update also changed Barney's "Sober Up" task from an 8 hour task to a 4 hour task. There was also an update on December 23, 2012, adding another of Gil's offers to the game.

In the App Store description of the game, a "Kiddie Ride" is said to be one of the decorations added with the update. However, the only sighting of a kiddie ride in the game is a one outside the in-game [[#Buildings 5|Try-N-Save building]].

[http://forum.ea.com/eaforum/posts/list/9204478.page Reports] started on the ''Tapped Out'' forums on December 29, 2012 that players could get "[[#Mystery Stockings|Mystery Stockings]]" for {{Santa Coin|50}}, and that they would have either donuts or a Reindeer in. There have been several more reports since then, and in late January 2, 2013 or early January 3, 2013 (depending on the time zone), the end of the update was officially extended to January 10, 2013, and the Mystery Stockings were introduced officially.

[[File:Tapped Out Mystery Stocking.png|right]]
 +
'''Mystery Stockings''' contain donuts or a reindeer and cost {{Santa Coin|50}}. There was an update on January 2, 2013 installing the Mystery Stockings and the dialogue following into the game, but they didn't appear until January 3, 2013. Before this, there were several reports on the ''Tapped Out'' forums of Mystery Stockings from players who had jailbroken devices and were able to 'time-travel' to when the Mystery Stockings were available. The stockings contain 1-3 donuts or a Reindeer. The stockings were introduced to allow the players to convert their excess Santa Coins to permanent items, which was opposed to the experience after the Halloween content update, when the surplus of treats just vanished.

=== Mystery Stockings ===
 
−
[[File:Tapped Out Mystery Stocking.png|right]]
 
−
'''Mystery Stockings''' contain donuts or a reindeer and cost {{Santa Coin|50}}. There was an update on January 2, 2013 installing the Mystery Stockings and the dialogue following into the game, but they didn't appear until January 3, 2013. Before this, there were several reports on the ''Tapped Out'' forums of Mystery Stockings from players who had jailbroken devices and were able to 'time-travel' to when the Mystery Stockings were available. The stockings contain 1-3 donuts or a Reindeer. The stockings were introduced to allow the players to convert their excess Santa Coins to permanent items, which was opposed to the experience after the Halloween content update, when the surplus of treats just vanished.
 
−
 
 
−
Once the player goes into their Springfield:
 
−
:'''Homer''': I can't wait till the holidays are over and I can eat all our leftover Santa coins...just like I did with the Halloween candy.
 
−
:'''Lisa''': But not all those coins are made of chocolate. Some of them are made of coin.
 
−
:'''Homer''': Doesn't matter. I'm still going to eat them.
 
−
:'''Lisa''': How about if instead we use them to buy Mystery Stockings, which contain all sorts of goodies.
 
−
:'''Homer''': And then I can eat those? Lisa, you're a genius!
 
  
−
A notice then appears reading "Use surplus Santa Coins to buy Mystery Stockings before the Holiday Event ends on January 10th."

Christmas 2012

Gil's offers

Santa's Village, Holiday Tree and Santa Homer offer

Tapped Out Santa's Village, Holiday Tree and Santa Homer offer.png

Once tapping on Gil's "Holiday Tree" speech bubble
Gil Ho-ho-ho, just wait until you see what I've got for you today.
Lisa Is it a pony?
Homer Is it a large screen TV? 'Cause I could stop breaking in to the Brown House if I had one of those.

The Santa's Village, Holiday Tree and Santa Homer offer appears, with Gil in the picture saying "Celebrate consumerism with this holiday inspired theme park and tree!". This promotion was supposed to have lasted between December 13, 2012 and December 16, 2012, but Gil was removed from the game presumably because of players being locked out.

Gil was introduced in an update on December 19, 2012, and the offer lasted between December 19, 2012 – December 22, 2012. The offer is that the player can get Santa's Village, the Holiday Tree and Santa Homer for 200 Donuts instead of its 275 Donut Value. Once the offer is up, Gil will disappear from your Springfield.

According to the game files:

If the player accepts the offer
Gil Honey, I made a sale! Tell the kids I'll be home for Christmas! What do you mean I'm not welcome? You got remarried already?!
If the player declines the offer
Gil - Sad Hi, honey? I need you to tell the kids Christmas is cancelled again this year.

25% More Donuts offer

Tapped Out 25% More Donuts offer.png

Once tapping on Gil's "Donut" speech bubble
Gil Ho-ho-ho boy. Have I got a Christmas miracle for you! To celebrate the season, all donut packages come with 25% more donuts! Which means a dozen is now 15. 50 is the new 40! And that tray of 132 donuts is now... well, Ol Gil's not that good at math. If he was, he wouldn't have to be standing out here in the cold hawking donuts. He's also not that good at grammar, always calling himself he instead of I...
Homer Fine, I'll look at the store. Just shut up already!
Gil Bless you, fat sir.

The offer appears, showing Gil in a Santa Suit picking up a green donut from a plate of white, red and green donuts. On the table is a picture of the Simpsons, but a cut-out of Gil has covered most of them. He is saying "Celebrate the season with even more donuts!".

The "25% More Donuts" offer lasted between December 23, 2012-December 27/28, 2012. The offer was added to the game in an update (released on December 23, 2012). This promotion was supposed to have lasted between December 19, 2012 and January 2, 2013, but Gil was removed from the game presumably because of players being locked out. Once the offer is up, Gil will disappear from your Springfield.

This offer is called "DayOldDonuts" in the game files.

If the player declines the offer
Gil Ah, jeez! Guess the kids will have to go the another Christmas without presents... or electricity.

In the store, the donut pictures have a new Christmas design.

Messages

If you tap on Gil, these dialogue boxes will appear:

Gil If you're won't buy something, can you at least push me in front of an expensive looking car?
Gil Alright Gil, remember... ABCD: Always Be Closing Donuts!
Gil Oh boy, oh boy, you're back! Come on Gil, don't screw this up again.
Gil Please buy something this time. I'm going to lose my kids!
Gil Please buy something, I can't sell anymore blood. Uwooh...
Gil A second chance? Oh thank you, thank you, thank you.
Gil Just one more sale and I'll finally have that hot plate paid for.
Gil Alright Gil. You can maybe do it this time.
Gil You have no idea how much I need this.
Gil I'm just trying to earn enough money to buy my real eyes back.

Mystery Stockings

Tapped Out Mystery Stocking.png

Mystery Stockings contain donuts or a reindeer and cost Tapped Out Santa Coin.png50. There was an update on January 2, 2013 installing the Mystery Stockings and the dialogue following into the game, but they didn't appear until January 3, 2013. Before this, there were several reports on the Tapped Out forums of Mystery Stockings from players who had jailbroken devices and were able to 'time-travel' to when the Mystery Stockings were available. The stockings contain 1-3 donuts or a Reindeer. The stockings were introduced to allow the players to convert their excess Santa Coins to permanent items, which was opposed to the experience after the Halloween content update, when the surplus of treats just vanished.

Once the player goes into their Springfield
Homer I can't wait till the holidays are over and I can eat all our leftover Santa coins...just like I did with the Halloween candy.
Lisa But not all those coins are made of chocolate. Some of them are made of coin.
Homer Doesn't matter. I'm still going to eat them.
Lisa How about if instead we use them to buy Mystery Stockings, which contain all sorts of goodies.
Homer And then I can eat those? Lisa, you're a genius!
Notice "Use surplus Santa Coins to buy Mystery Stockings before the Holiday Event ends on January 10th."
