New Events
Keg Racing
Where: The Stairs to Frerin's Court
The dwarves of Thorin's Hall are having races amongst the doughtiest drinkers and runners of their folk. You can observe the races and venture a guess at who is the likeliest to win.
The Taste of Hobbiton
Where: The Hill
The Taste of Hobbiton invites hobbits with the most famous appetites to come and partake in a race to eat and run, and eat some more, as fast as the hungriest hobbit possibly can.
Returning Events
Fishing
Where: Bywater (for starters)
Beginning in Bywater, you will have the opportunity to do some exciting angling in several different areas of Middle-earth.
Fireworks
Where: The Festival Grounds in the Horsefields
Brighten the festival with rockets, the likes of which haven't been seen since Bilbo's time.
Dancing
Where: Duillond Festival Grounds, Bree-land Festival Grounds, The Party Tree, and the Thorin's Hall Tavern
Dance with the dance-trainers to learn how to dance like Elves, dwarves, Men, and hobbits! The trainer will grant you an opportunity to learn a new dance every twenty minutes.
Farming
Where: The Party Tree, Hobbiton
You must be a Farmer by profession if you would like to participate in the farming quest.
The Inn League
Where: The Party Tree, Hobbiton
The Inn League is always looking to recruit new members. Can you down all the ales and beers in the Shire before the time runs out?
Missing Things
Where: The Party Tree, Duillond, and Thorin's Hall
Many festival patrons of Middle-earth are a bit zealous in their participation, and may need help gathering their wits when all is done.
