Aside from regular seasonal content releases, most content drops in Star Trek Online consist of regularly occurring Events. They are windows of opportunity during which players either gain discounts on items, bonuses when completing specific tasks, or gain access to certain content, whether that be limited-time content, or item rewards and unlocks.

Note that the below durations are typically how these events are ran, sometimes they can be week or month long events. Although they are recurring, there is no pre-defined order.

Flash Sales can also occur, these sales only occur on weekends and typically only for 48 hours.
