SeasonEventController
by MiTask
With SeasonEventController, server owners and players decide how the in-game Christmas chests and Halloween pumpkins appear, instead of leaving them to the vanilla schedule.
What it does
SeasonEventController gives control over seasonal in-game events such as the Christmas chests and the Halloween pumpkin heads and mobs. Each event can be forced on, forced off, or left to follow vanilla behavior, so a world can show the seasonal content year round, hide it entirely, or keep the default schedule. The mod is a simple Fabric mod and is open source under the MIT License.
Installation is optional on either side: either side can run the mod, and neither needs it. A single player gets the same options as a server owner, and a dedicated server can set the events for everyone who joins. Files are published for Fabric only, across the 1.21 – 1.21.11 range, with 1.21.11-1.0 for 1.21.11 as the latest build. MidnightLib is bundled inside the mod, so no separate library needs to be installed.
Key features
Force enable events
Chosen seasonal events can be turned on at any time of year, so Christmas chests appear in a summer world.
Force disable events
Seasonal events can be turned off completely, keeping the world free of pumpkins and chests.
Vanilla behavior option
Each event can be left to follow the vanilla calendar, which keeps the default schedule in place.
Christmas chests and Halloween pumpkins

How it compares
Seasonal Villages is a Fabric and Forge mod for 1.21.1, released under the MIT License and not open source, and it needs both the client and the server. ForcePlace is open source under the Apache License 2.0 for 1.21 – 1.21.4 on Fabric, and it also needs both sides. Gamerule Menu InGame is an open source Fabric mod for 1.21 – 1.21.8 under the MIT License, and it is client-side only, so players can use it alone. SeasonEventController covers only seasonal events, while these mods change other parts of the game.
