Question about event travel availability

I'm having a hard time remembering/figuring out which event-items come back year to year and which don't. Obviously the Halloween Prize travels come back for at least a few years after introduction, since I see the same ones in the Prize shop I saw last year.

I *think* the Advent Tree travels might come back? Not totally sure on that. But what I'm really wondering about is the Chocotravaganza prizes. It seems this year's prizes were all new, and ones from last year were retired, blog said "The Prize Shop has been entirely rotated." but is that normal year to year? Any long-time players want to weigh in on this?

(Looking at my hoard of Mint Chocolate Design travels and wondering if I'll have a chance to get more next year....)

@heatherm19
This is only my recollection and anyone can feel free to correct my memory.

I'm fairly sure, for at least the last couple of years, the Choc prizes have been a one year exclusive thing. I can vaguely remember it being more like the Halloween event, where they stuck around for a couple of years, but this year we only had new prizes in the choc event.

The Egg hunt also has exclusive prizes and the Gobbler event creature seems a new one off each year. Dragold's seems to work on a pool of some out, some in. Ark Day seems to only have a pool and I can't remember the prizes changing (eggs do, not items).

The Advent Calendar is weird. For a while it was the only place to get a SoB, which was a reoccuring seasonal thing now found elsewhere (I really want to say Ark Victory, but not 100%). But now it seems to give out a mixture of "this year only" exclusives and items available in NPC shops. Creatures seem to be added to a pool though.
