Bloxfest 2026 Guide: Twitch Crown & Glitch Helmet

Bloxfest is the biggest Roblox x Twitch collaboration of the year, and the Grand Finale is happening February 26-27, 2026. Two exclusive UGC items — the Twitch Crown and Glitch Helmet — are up for grabs, and both are limited-time only. Once Bloxfest ends on February 27, these items are gone forever.

Here's exactly how to get every free reward before the deadline.

What is Bloxfest?

Bloxfest is a month-long Roblox x Twitch event running February 5-27, 2026. It combines:

• Free UGC items for players who complete in-game challenges
• Twitch Drops for viewers watching Roblox streams
• A $300,000 Twitch Rivals competition featuring top Roblox streamers
• Partner game rewards from DOORS, Fisch, Blox Fruits, and more

Everything runs through the RB Battles x Twitch Hub, the official event portal on Roblox.

How to Get the Glitch Helmet (FREE UGC)

The Glitch Helmet is earned by completing all 4 Roblox Challenges in the Badge Hunt. Each badge was revealed on a staggered schedule:

Steps to Get the Glitch Helmet

1. Join the RB Battles x Twitch Hub on Roblox
2. Complete all 4 badge challenges — each involves playing a specific partner game and completing a task
3. Return to the Hub after collecting all 4 badges
4. Claim the Glitch Helmet from the rewards area

Deadline: All 4 badges must be collected by February 20, 2026. If you haven't started yet, you still have time but need to move fast.

How to Get the Twitch Crown (FREE UGC)

The Twitch Crown uses a prediction mechanic tied to the Grand Finale competition.

Steps to Get the Twitch Crown

1. Visit the RB Battles x Twitch Hub on Roblox before the Grand Finale
2. Explore the 8 team captains' bases inside the Hub
3. Pick which team captain you think will win the Grand Finale
4. Lock in your choice — your decision locks 1 hour before the finals begin
5. If your team wins, you unlock the Twitch Crown UGC item

The 8 Team Captains

• NicoBlox
• IBella
• iBugou
• ElAbrahaham
• robinhoodgamer
• CherryAhrizona
• KreekCraft
• Lanaraee

Each captain will draft from 64 qualified streamers to build their squad for the Grand Finale.

Important: You can switch teams freely before the lock-in deadline. Once it locks (1 hour before finals), your choice is final.

Grand Finale Schedule (Feb 26-27)

The Bloxfest Grand Finale is a live Twitch Rivals event with a $300,000 prize pool.

Watch the stream live on Twitch for potential additional Twitch Drops during the finals.

FAQ

Q: Can I still get the Glitch Helmet? A: You need all 4 badges by February 20. If you missed badges, check the RB Battles x Twitch Hub — some may still be completable.

Q: What if my team loses the Grand Finale? A: Only players who picked the winning team receive the Twitch Crown. Choose wisely — research the captains and their draft picks before locking in.

Q: Do I need Twitch to participate? A: The Glitch Helmet and Twitch Crown are earned in-game through Roblox. Twitch Drops (DOORS skins, chat badges) require watching streams on Twitch.

Q: Is Bloxfest available worldwide? A: The UGC items and in-game challenges are available globally. The Twitch Rivals competition is restricted to streamers from North and South America.

Q: Will these items ever come back? A: Both the Twitch Crown and Glitch Helmet are confirmed limited-time items exclusive to Bloxfest 2026. They will not return after February 27.

Bottom Line

Bloxfest 2026 is handing out two of the most exclusive UGC items of the year. The Glitch Helmet requires completing 4 badge challenges (deadline Feb 20), while the Twitch Crown depends on correctly predicting the Grand Finale winner (Feb 26-27). Both are permanently gone after the event ends.

If you only do one thing: visit the RB Battles x Twitch Hub right now, complete any remaining badges, and lock in your team pick before the finals. Free limited UGC doesn't come around often.
