#How to start Tree Planting Festival Event
1 messages · Page 1 of 1 (latest)
when you speak to the mayor he should have the prompt to start it
south of the baloon is the mayor
or press P and you see where you need to go or where you can find what during any festival 
I thought that:
Connor is the mayor, right?
yes, so it must be a bug then 
have you perhaps talked to connor before going to the festival? maybe being unable to talk to npc's at festivals after you talked to them that day is causing this softlock?
I'll be honest, that was a few hrs ago (left the game running while I went out in case someone had an easy solution for me).
I do not recall if I spoke to him before the festival. I know before I wanted to start it I talked to all the NPCs present.
I do not think I talked to him beforehand, but maybe. I did do some running around today.
then that might be it then, i'd definitely report it in the bugs threads but other than that try restarting your day? not talk to him before festival and see if that fixes it
Yeah, I'll close out the game and restart the day at some point. But definitely gonna report it, because regardless of if I spoke to him earlier, it shouldn't lock me out of the whole event :x
yup, it shouldn't be, that's why definitely report it.
not being able to talk to npc's at festivals after you talked to them that day is a thing many aren't happy with so maybe if it actually causes this one to not even trigger it they'll change it 
I had this same thing today at my second year tree festival
Try mousing over Connor a little, you should get a pop up to start the festival
but where's Connor? i can't even find the balloon anymore
on the first day i couldn't get there in time
This happened to me too I walked away talked to another npc came back and got the prompt to start the festival weird lil bug
Tried that, didn't fix it
Connor for me was standing down and left of the balloon
Guys, this festival side quest won't go away and it's been 3 days... there's no festival at all! what do i do? lol
srsly this is annoyinglol
guys is my save ruined?
This thread is not your personal help channel. Stop posting unrelated issues and questions
If you need help there are other channels. If you have a different bug, make your own post.
I don't mean to be rude. It's just hard for developers to sort out bugs and issues when multiple things are posted in a thread. You're clearly having a different issue.
this is a community... in order to avoid duplicated threads, we should use the same thread to talk about the same issue... you are weird.
and it's not unrelated if you pay attention. my god what a cringe juice
Happened to me as well, you can still go the next year and it will progress
I'm just thinkin if I'll keep getting the festival notification almost everyday 😅
cause the event is gone but i got the notification at least 5 more times in the same year
you can choose what quests to track tho, just untrack it
