Yes, there are places to get them, but not in any qty that does much good if you really want to search continue searching the location.

Also, yes, it is not every event where this happens. This started when they started bundling 2 events in one update, I forget when they started this but it seems like it was the Xmas School/new Crash Site update. I for one do not like it. You can generally tell this will happen when you can figure out where the next event will be. When we got the Witche's Abode the new Tea House location was there covered by fog. In this event the Outside of RRC got a facelift indicating that something was up there long before there was any other confirmation that it would be the location for the next event.

I like to continue playing the previous location to get keys to fhe next location. There are several reasons. #1 - I can search it quickly because I have been searching it and I know the location best. #2 - It generally gives the most keys per search, there are other locations that give as many but not that meet point #1. #3 - I like to get locations up to rank 8, which I can generally do on the previous location while getting keys for the new location.

Unforturnattely, they have also started giving less event location keys overall which makes it extremely difficult to have many stockpiled before the end of the event. I did not get Witche's Abode up to rank 8 until this event. But having extra keys allows me to keep playing the location enough to keep item locations fresh in my mind so that I can continue to search it quickly. As I've probably posted in in the past, my main motivator is time, how can I get the most event keys in the least amount of time. Energy spend to key ratio is not a factor if the time involved is greater. I can always get more energy. Time is finite, I only have so much time I can spend playing.
