The New York Times Strands puzzle brings a challenging board layout that might leave you searching for non-theme words just to fill your hint meter. If you want to protect your perfect streak without using up the in-game hints, we have you covered.

Below, you’ll find today’s theme clue, targeted hints for the Spangram, and the complete solution at the bottom of the page.

Today’s Strands Strategy and Commentary

Today’s board is packed with words that sit close together and share letters, making it easy to spot shorter terms but harder to connect the full theme. Many theme words run in diagonal paths and overlap one another, so check every direction carefully.

The Spangram spans the entire board and reveals the overarching connection, so finding it first will make the remaining words much easier to locate.

Today’s Strands Hints

To get you started without spoiling the specific words, use these structural clues to navigate the board:

  • Today’s Official Theme Clue: “Celebration time”
  • Spangram Hint: It forms the start of a well-known phrase about enjoying life and having fun. It spans across the board in connected parts.
  • Spangram Start/End Letters: Starts with L and ends with Y, and there are 10 letters in total.

⚠️ Spoiler Warning: The Spangram answer and full list of theme words is shown below. Don’t scroll down if you still want to solve it yourself and follow the hints and clue above.
