All UFO Sightseeing Locations in GTA Online (Halloween Event 2025)

Once you''ve taken pictures of all 25 UFOs, you will be rewarded with an additional $100,000 and unlock three different variants of the "Believe Cap," including the base variant.

During the final stage of the event (more on it below), you have a chance of getting abducted by any one of the UFOs. If you get abducted, you unlock two variants of the "UFO Boxer Shorts" and the "???" Special Top.

The Special Top is the same top that was found in the game files a while back and that was believed to be a teaser for GTA 6 once the A1-Z26 Cipher message on the t-shirt was solved.

UFO Event Schedule

Unfortunately, not all the UFOs are present at once, and you must go through an entire month to capture all of them. Below, we have the event calendar accompanied by a map showing the corresponding UFO location. On the calendar, you can see that the first UFO, "1," spawns on October 15, 2024. Simply refer to our UFO location map and look for the number to see where the UFO will spawn.

Go to the location at 10 PM. Once you've spent at least 5 minutes in a session, you will see the UFO. This is a common mistake that a lot of players tend to make: they go to the location immediately after joining the session and get confused as to why the UFO didn't spawn, even after reaching the spawn point between 10 PM and 4 AM.

The red "9" that you see is a stealth UFO that will only spawn on the mentioned day. It is not part of the 25 UFOs you need to capture to get the primary rewards and only rewards you with cash and RP. However, if you still want to get it, you can.

The UFOs marked with an asterisk (*) represent the last chance to get that particular UFO. For example, on October 21, 2024, you can get UFO "7"; however, if you miss that UFO on that day, it will not spawn again, and you won't have another chance to get it. Similarly, you can see that from October 27 to October 29, you have a chance to capture some of the previous UFOs that appeared during the earlier period of the event.

Similarly, you can capture UFOs "13" to "26" from October 31 to November 3, 2024. But November 3 will be your last chance to get it.

The green dot next to the dates represents the days you can get abducted by the UFOs.

Note that this event is a yearly recurring event and only happens in October as part of the Halloween update. If you're not able to get these rewards during the current period, you can always return next year and try to get the rewards.

The overall structure of the event will remain the same, and the dates may vary slightly, but the schedule, in-game spawn times, and the rewards will be the same, with maybe a few changes, but not so much that they may change the entire course of the event.

UFO Sightseeing Locations

The following are all the locations where the UFOs will spawn along with the corresponding dates. Just get close to one of the locations on the specified date and you should see the UFO in the distance. Make sure you've spent at least 5 minutes in a session and the in-game time is between 10 PM and 4 AM.

Stealth UFO Location

The Stealth UFO will spawn on the same day as UFO 9 on October 23, 2024. It will spawn at the same location as UFO 8.

Abduction

During the days when you can get abducted, if you walk into a UFO's light beam, there is a chance for you to get abducted and sucked into the UFO. There is a 50% chance of either waking up in a random place without your clothes on or inside the bunker under Fort Zancudo. This has been bumped up from a 25% chance last year (2023).

If you wake up inside the bunker, you can actually get off of the operating table and move around. There are several easter eggs inside as well that will help you escape the bunker.

The first thing that you must do when you wake up is to grab the crowbar from the table inside the operating room and use it on the big wooden crate in the third room to unlock "The Shocker" melee weapon. The third room is a room with a bunch of dark green military crates inside. The room has a "four circles" symbol.

Note that if you've already found "The Shocker" before, looting the crate again will reward you with $25,000 and 1,000 RP. And if you've got $2,000 from the crate, then that means you're looting the crate within 60 minutes of last finding money from another UFO. The 60 minutes (in real life time) must pass before you can earn $25,000 and 1,000 RP.
