As the name suggests, Turkey Day will take place on the American Thanksgiving holiday from 9:00am to midnight on 26 November, 2020.
It’s important to note that as of the v1.6.0 update, all new holiday events are time locked, meaning you can not time travel to these events before they are actually set to occur.

As Franklin’s assistant on Turkey Day, it will be your responsibility to help him prepare his dishes. In order to do so, you will need to gather four ingredients – three main ingredients and one secret ingredient to enhance the dish.
Franklin will provide hints for three of the ingredients, and will only provide vague clues for the fourth. Thankfully, Franklin will share some of these secret ingredients with your fellow villagers, so you may want to pay some extra attention to what your villages say during the Turkey Day event.
Once you have successfully delivered all of the required ingredients for the recipes, Franklin will begin cooking the dishes.
As a reward for helping Franklin cook the four regular dishes, you will receive four non-craftable Turkey Day themed items, along with eight Turkey Day themed DIY recipes upon successfully adding secret ingredients to all four dishes..
