Festivities

Midsummer Preparations

Various people in Minas Tirith (Midsummer) and around Eriador need help in preparing for the Midsummer Festivities surrounding the Wedding of King Aragorn II Elessar to Arwen Undómiel.

Visit Fealeth near the city stables to begin assisting in the preparations.

A Long-awaited Banquet

During the Wedding Banquet the members of the Fellowship have need of your help.

General Festival Events

The following events are also held during every seasonal festival:

Inn League and Ale Association

The Inn League and the Ale Association are running their activities during the Midsummer Festival.

Festival Dances

During all seasonal Festivals, Dance Leaders will teach characters up to eight special racial dances (two from each Race) by completing dance lessons. There is one Dance Leader located in each of the festival grounds of Thorin's Hall Inn and the Festival Garden in Ered Luin, The Party Tree in the Shire, and the Festival Grounds in Bree-land.

Dance lessons take place approximately every 20 minutes, and the quests are available for about 5 minutes before the dance begins. As of U20, the quest start times are random.

When the Dance Leader starts, target the leader and follow their instructions using the commands /dance1, /dance2, or /dance3 as they instruct you. The time to perform each step decreases with the quest's progression.

At the end of the lesson, the Dance Leader returns to their original position and you are able to select your reward: either the first or second dance emote from that race. Complete the lessons again to learn all the dances! You can do one (successful) dance per day for each race.

Festival Horse Races

Each festival brings exciting horse races to the Shire Race-track and the Bree-land Festival Grounds. By completing a race in time, players can win festival tokens which can be exchanged for festival rewards.
