Red Dead Online’s March 2026 Moonshiner Event Month Is Live: Triple Rewards, Free Outfits, and Huge Discounts Until March 30

Rockstar has rolled out its latest monthly celebration for Red Dead Online, and this one is all about the Moonshiners. Running from March 3 to March 30, 2026, the “Moonshiner Event Month” delivers stacked bonuses on story missions, sales, and contracts, plus a rotating lineup of free clothing rewards and some of the best discounts we’ve seen on Moonshiner gear in months.

Whether you’re already running a high-level Moonshine Shack or just thinking about buying one, this is the perfect time to dive deep into the role.

Massive Multipliers Across the Board

Rockstar is pumping up payouts all month long:
