A '''festival''' is a seasonal event that is held in the [[festival grounds]] in ''[[The Sims 3: Seasons]]''. A festival may or may not occur the second day after the [[Weather|season]] changes. During the first day of the season, the festival grounds will be in "under construction" state. All premade festival grounds have the under construction state. If the players create their own custom festival, they may not provide the under construction state, in which case the festival will begin as soon as the season changes.

== Big letters ==
Festivals are open at 8 AM and closed at 9 PM. During the closing time, Sims will not be able to enter enclosed buildings at the festival grounds, such as toilet stalls, or use certain objects like chairs. Sims who perform certain activities at the festivals will earn festival tickets which can be redeemed at the concession stands. Not all activities will reward Sims with festival tickets. Festival tickets are only rewarded if the activities are performed at the festival grounds.

===Concession stand===
 
Sims can buy food and redeem festival tickets at the concession stand. The concession stand has different menus and items for different seasons. Sims with '''Festival Frequenter''' [[lifetime reward]] will get half price for the food. Some of the items are not available in the [[Buy mode]]. Some of the food are from the [[food truck]] and [[ice cream truck]], and therefore requires ''[[The Sims 3: Late Night]]'' and ''[[The Sims 3: Pets]]''.

===Face painting booth===
 
[[File:Festival generic - face painting booth.jpg|210px|thumb|A Sim having her face painted]]
 
Sims can get a temporary face paint at the face painting booth, which will wear off in 9 hours. Face painting costs §50, while Sims with the '''Festival Frequenter''' lifetime reward will get a half price. Sims will earn 5 festival tickets from having their face painted. Some face paints are available in certain season only, and there are 2 face paints that are randomly available in every season. The available face paints are as following:
 
{{col-begin}}
 
{{col-2}}
 
* Happy Clown
 
* Feline
 
* Unicorn
 
* Whimsical
 
* Stars
 
* Pirate (random)
 
* Plumbobs (random)
 
* Bunny (spring)
 
{{col-2}}
 
* Hearts (spring)
 
* Sun (summer)
 
* Surfer (summer)
 
* Pumpkin (fall)
 
* Turkey (fall)
 
* Snowflakes (winter)
 
* Freezer Bunny (winter)
 
{{col-end}}
 
 
There's a 20% chance Sims will get a failure face paint. [[Unlucky]] Sims will get +15% higher chance, while [[Lucky]] Sims will get -4% lower chance. [[Ghost]]s, [[Mummy|mummies]], [[SimBots]], and [[imaginary friend]]s cannot have their face painted.
 
 
===Greeting card photo booth===
 
[[File:Festival generic - greeting card photo booth.jpg|210px|thumb|A greeting card photo booth]]
 
Up to 8 Sims can take a greeting card at the seasonal-themed photo booth. After Sims are done taking a photo, each of them will have a greeting card in their inventory. Greeting cards can be hung on the wall or placed on a surface. Additionally, the players are able to share the greeting cards in their own wall or their friend's wall at [[TheSims3.com]], or share it to Facebook and Twitter.
 
 
In addition to photo booths, Sims can also take greeting cards at the [[city hall]], [[science lab]], or [[school]]. Different photo booth or [[rabbit hole]] will have different backdrop for the greeting card. Sims in the greeting cards will pose like in [[Create a Sim|Create a Family]] snapshot.

==Spring festival==
 
===Easter egg hunt===
 
[[File:Festival spring - Easter egg hunt.jpg|210px|thumb|A child collecting an Easter egg]]
 
Every day during spring, Easter eggs will be randomly scattered around the festival grounds. The game will randomly spawn 10-20 Easter eggs at 5 AM. Sims can pick up an Easter egg when they see one, or search for eggs so they will look for the eggs on their own. Sims will earn a festival ticket for each egg they collect. There's a 10% chance finding a fancy festival egg when picking up an egg, and a 3% chance of the Bucktooth Butternut spring [[Mysterious Mr. Gnome|magic gnome]]. Sims can place the fancy festival egg at home as a decor that's worth §500.

===Horseshoe court===
 
[[File:Festival spring - horseshoe court.jpg|210px|thumb|Sims playing with horseshoe court]]
 
Horseshoe court can be played by up to four Sims, with two teams consisting of two Sims. Sims will take turns tossing horseshoes. Sims will build the [[Secret skills#Seasons|hidden Horseshoes skill]]. The higher the skill, the more likely they will make a good toss. The winners of the game will earn 25 festival tickets, while the losers will earn 5.
 
 
===Kissing booth===
 
[[File:Festival spring - kissing booth.jpg|210px|thumb|Sims being kissed at the kissing booths]]
 
Sims can ask to be kissed by a kissing booth attendant for §5. There are two kinds of kissing booths, one of each gender. Kissing booth kiss is not a romantic social, and therefore will not trigger jealousy. The kiss will not count towards first kiss either. Receiving a kiss from the attendant will give a positive "Got Kissed at a Kissing Booth" moodlet that lasts for 8 hours. Asking to be kissed will increase the Sim's gender preference towards the attendant's gender.
 
 
Sims who ask to be kissed will give a different kissing animation based on their traits. Sims with Great Kisser or Hopeless Romantic trait will give a steamy kiss, Sims with [[Shy]], [[Loner]], or [[Loser]] trait will give a shy kiss; while Sims with [[Slob]] trait will give a sloppy kiss.
 
 
[[File:Festival spring - tending kissing booth.jpg|210px|thumb|A Sim tending a kissing booth]]Sims can also attend the kissing booth to earn extra money. They will earn money depending on how many kisses they've made. Each kiss will earn the Sim between §0-§10. Sims can use the self-"Be Flirty" interaction, which can make them more attractive so other Sims are more likely to ask to be kissed. Sims who are a vampire, have [[Great Kisser]] or [[Hopeless Romantic]] trait, or have Attractive lifetime reward will also attract other Sims, albeit considerably less than being flirty.
 
 
===Love tester machine===
 
[[File:Festival spring - love tester machine.jpg|210px|thumb|Two Sims using a love tester machine]]
 
Sims can use the love tester machine alone or with someone for §5. The machine will calculate and give a result. The machine has 10 outcomes, ranging from good to bad:
 
# <font color="green">Uncontrollable</font>
 
# <font color="green">Hot Stuff</font>
 
# <font color="green">Passionate</font>
 
# <font color="green">Burning</font>
 
# Wild
 
# Naughty but Nice
 
# Mild
 
# <font color="red">Harmless</font>
 
# <font color="red">Clammy</font>
 
# <font color="red">Cold Fish</font>
 
 
The machine will generate a random number. The number is modified by the Sims' [[temperature]], [[Trait (The Sims 3)|traits]] (if used alone), and relationships (if used together). Low temperature will give negative bonus to the calculation, while high temperature will give positive bonus. The positive traits and lifetime rewards that affect the score Attractive, [[Charismatic]], and [[Flirty]], while the negative traits are [[Childish]], [[Commitment Issues]], and [[Loner]]. If both Sims are romantic interests, partnered, engaged, or married, they will get a positive bonus, while exes will get negative bonus. If both Sims are also attracted to each other, they'll get a positive bonus.
 
 
As the machine calculates the score, good outcomes will give "Burning Loins" [[moodlet]], 3 festival tickets, and a relationship boost; neutral outcomes will give 2 festival tickets; and bad outcomes will give "Frozen Loins" moodlet, 1 festival ticket, and a damaged relationship.
 
 
There are certain conditions that will result the machine to give a definite positive or negative outcome.
 
* If either Sim has "Frozen Loins" moodlet, they will always get a bad result; but if either Sim has "Burning Loins" moodlet, they will always get a good result. The "Frozen Loins" moodlet check always precedes the "Burning Loins" moodlet, however.
 
* If used alone, a [[SimBot]] has a 50% chance that they will get Uncontrollable result.
 
* Certain [[life state]]s will give definite outcomes. The following pairings will give a positive outcome:
 
** Both of them are SimBots
 
** Both of them are [[Werewolf|werewolves]]
 
** Both of them are [[zombie]]s
 
** One of them is a [[Vampire (The Sims 3)|vampire]], while the other one is a regular Sim
 
** One of them is an [[imaginary friend]], while the other one is a [[fairy]]
 
* On the other hand, certain life state pairings will also give a negative outcome:
 
** Only one of them is a SimBot
 
** One of them is a vampire, while the other one is a werewolf
 
** One of them is a [[witch]], while the other one is a regular Sim
 
 
===Spring dance floor===
 
[[File:Festival spring - dance floor.jpg|210px|thumb|Sims dancing at the dance floor]]
 
On last day of every spring, the festival will announce king and queen of the spring dance. Sims need to dance for at least an hour at the spring dance floor in the festival grounds in order to be qualified as a king or queen. There's a 20% chance for a Sim to be picked, and an additional +20% for each hour they dance. This means that Sims who have danced for 5 hours will always be picked for qualification. If there are more than 2 Sims who are picked, the game will randomly determine the king and queen of the spring dance queen; otherwise the sole Sim who is picked will become the king or queen. Dancing any longer will not increase the odds to be crowned.
 
 
Sims who is crowned the king or queen of the spring dance will receive a plaque in their [[mailbox]] and earn 250 festival tickets. They will also become the subject of Spring Dance King and Spring Dance Queen [[Photography]] subject.
