I'm saving up money by waiting to complete the original high school quest, but it's slow going to get enough to buy new community buildings. Is there anything special for the event I need the downtown or new high school area right now, or is everything new there permanent? Would it be better to try to build the health spa right now so I can participate in the hobby event for aerobics? I already had a sim max out the Internet Kitten hobby after there was confusion about if that or woodworking was going to happen a couple weeks ago.

Edit: It sounds like there is also a 7-day limit for other aerobics prizes as a regular time-limited hobby prize. Will this event conflict with this if they happen at the same time?
Months back I was collecting regular baby outfits available with musical expression hobby. Next day baby onesie event started which also required same hobby. So my regular event was paused automatically till I finished collecting all the baby onesies..it resumed after I collected all of them. So I think if you are in middle of aerobic activewear collection and this upcoming event starts, you can collect your regular prize after special event is over.
I don't know if this has changed recently though..

Also about new downtown high school, it doesn't give anything new furniture etc...you'll unlock cheerleader outfit and a pet pig..if I were you I wouldn't spend my money on it now. You can start this quest anytime as it is a discovery quest :)

With this update I can't access architect homes like I could before even though I didn't complete the quest, boo! Guess I'll have to hurry up and do it as there is a house with statue I want.

I really love that they are repeating Live Events! Because I was not able to complete them when they were live! I really need the Love Island and Magic Island (don't know the original names on english because I play in spanish)

Sounds like you are talking about the Tropical Romance Island event and the Prince and the Pocket-sized Princess event (that unlocked the magical rainforest). Those are community events and so are a little different from live events. The Tropical Romance Island has happened twice, both times in February around Valentine's Day. My guess would be if it does repeat again it will happen next February. The Magical rainforest one happened last December. Typically they don't repeat the December events again but those are also usually Christmasy/Wintery. Which the magical rainforest one wasn't. The only ones who know of that will repeat are FM.

But baby outfits is a regular collecting-random-prize task while limited edt activewear is timed for 7-days (like the baby jumper and beauty vanity). So I guess if you haven't finished the aerobic hobby the event might not appear. I think SunshineCat should start building the gym right now :)

What BlueIndian experienced also happened for people before with other hobbies that have permanent limited time events like the picnic basket for the survivalist hobby. Unless FM drastically change something in this update what BlueIndian said is what will happen.
