The Summer Solstice Festival
It's Back!
For the first time since accidentally killing everyone with the Laughing Plague in 1884, the Summer Solstice Festival is making a comeback and is bringing with it thread opportunities and a new character type!
THE CARNIVAL
The different activities are scattered about in unorganized fun, the locations of which seem to change every evening. Deliciously sweet, sticky and exotic foods can be purchased from different vendors, as can different costumes and wizard fireworks. The carnival opens at dusk, signified by the lighting of the big bonfire, and is open until sunrise.
The entrance fee is cheap, though those who have no money can often sneak in while the ticket person isn't looking. Members from all social classes can attend, although they tend to stick to their own groups and ignore the rest. It is a great place to meet new people and have fun with others outside of a strict social gathering.
The forum for this event will open June 19th. Players are discouraged from advanced thraedding.
THE CARNIES
They will arrive in Hogsmeade with little fanfare on June 3rd and report to the local hospital for quarantine. When the quarantine ends on the 17th, they will go to Padmore Park for set up, and open the festival officially on the 19th.
These characters are temporary and will exist in the temporary usergroup, although they do have the possibility to become permanent if they decide to stay in Britain.
Instead, please contact Ursula Black, Aldous Crouch, Cassius Lestrange, Elias Grimstone or Philomena Sprout with any questions, issues, or concerns.
