It is that time of year again when the board bursts with green and the dice start rolling faster than a leprechaun can sprint. Scopely has officially brought back the Rainbow Race tournament to Monopoly Go for St. Patrick\u2019s Day 2026, and I could not be more excited to jump into the action. I have been playing Monopoly Go since its early days, and this one-day competitive event remains one of my personal favorites because it packs a massive punch of prizes into a short, frantic session. Whether I am chasing sticker packs or hunting for those sweet, sweet free Dice Rolls, the Rainbow Race consistently delivers the kind of high-stakes board chaos that makes this mobile game addictive.
How I Earn Points in the Rainbow Race Tournament
Scoring points in Rainbow Race has not changed one bit from previous years, which honestly I appreciate because the formula just works. To climb the leaderboard and grind through the milestone track, I need to focus entirely on Bank Heists and Shutdowns. Both minigames trigger whenever I land on a Railroad tile, and the moment that little train icon appears on my screen, I know it is time to get aggressive.
When a Railroad landing sends me to another player\u2019s board, I get to pick between a Shutdown or a Bank Heist. The points I earn depend entirely on the outcome. A flawless win in a Bank Heist \u2013 snagging the elusive golden rings or breaking open the biggest vault \u2013 gives me the maximum point surge. Similarly, a successful Shutdown where I demolish an opponent\u2019s landmark without any shields blocking me racks up hefty tournament progress. If RNG does not smile on me and I only manage a small heist or get blocked, the points are still decent but noticeably smaller. My strategy always revolves around stacking Dice Rolls for the High Roller boost, then deliberately chasing those Railroad tiles during a Mega Heist flash event. That combo floods the points bar faster than anything else I have tried.
All Rainbow Race Rewards and Milestones for 2026
The real reason I, and probably thousands of other tycoons, obsess over this tournament is the milestone system. The Rainbow Race is built around 25 milestones, and clearing every single one rewards a grand total of 3,440 free Dice Rolls, multiple Sticker Packs, loads of Cash, and a handful of powerful boost slips like High Roller, Mega Heist, Rent Frenzy, and Cash Grab. Below is the full breakdown I have been using all day to plan my dice spending.
| Milestone | Points Required | Reward |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | 55 | 40 Dice Rolls |
| 2 | 40 | Green Sticker Pack |
| 3 | 90 | 70 Dice Rolls |
| 4 | 130 | High Roller (5 Minutes) |
| 5 | 110 | 80 Dice Rolls |
| 6 | 150 | Cash |
| 7 | 200 | Orange Sticker Pack |
| 8 | 250 | Mega Heist (15 Minutes) |
| 9 | 225 | Pink Sticker Pack |
| 10 | 275 | 175 Dice Rolls |
| 11 | 300 | Cash |
| 12 | 400 | Blue Sticker Pack |
| 13 | 375 | 250 Dice Rolls |
| 14 | 425 | Cash |
| 15 | 500 | Rent Frenzy (20 Minutes) |
| 16 | 600 | 375 Dice Rolls |
| 17 | 550 | Blue Sticker Pack |
| 18 | 700 | Cash |
| 19 | 800 | 500 Dice Rolls |
| 20 | 1,000 | Cash |
| 21 | 900 | Cash |
| 22 | 1,300 | 750 Dice Rolls |
| 23 | 1,500 | Cash Grab (15 Minutes) |
| 24 | 1,800 | Cash |
| 25 | 2,000 | 1,200 Dice Rolls |
The milestone curve here is pure Monopoly Go logic. The first half flies by with modest point demands, showering me with quick Dice Rolls and sticker packs right when I need them. Then the requirements steepen dramatically after milestone 16, and the last few steps demand serious point grinding. However, the payoff at milestone 25 \u2013 a juicy 1,200 Dice Rolls \u2013 makes every Railroad landing feel like striking gold. I always save my biggest multiplier boosts for the final stretch to avoid getting stuck short of that grand prize.
My Tips for Dominating the Leaderboard
While the milestone track guarantees loot, the competitive leaderboard is where the real bragging rights live. I have learned through plenty of St. Patrick\u2019s Day events that timing matters. Jumping into the tournament a few hours after it starts often places me in a less ferocious bracket, giving me a better shot at the top spots without burning through thousands of extra dice. Pairing the Rainbow Race with active sticker trading to complete sets also turbocharges my dice reserves, letting me sustain longer play sessions.
The combination of Bank Heist thrills and the shiny promise of that 25th milestone makes this one-day tournament a must-play. If you see me on your leaderboard, just know I am already rolling with a four-leaf clover in one hand and my multiplier maxed out in the other. Good luck out there, and may every Railroad tile lead you straight to a jackpot.
