Complete list of all festivals and events in Rune Factory 5

To start things off, here are the Spring festivals and events. There are six events that players can participate in and complete over the springtime.

New Year's Day

This day is Lucas' birthday in the game, and players can participate in making the day special for him.

Cooking Contest

Players have to produce or cook an item and submit it to Simone to obtain points. These points help determine the ranks of the players and get rewards accordingly. The focus to get more points should be to cook foods with high HP and RP recovery.

Bean-Tossing Festival

The idea of this event is to get tagged by means, but it's not as easy as it sounds. Getting hit by the correct item results in combos and more points. However, the combo will be broken if the player gets tagged by the wrong food. Players will require 12000 points to win.

Fish Variety Contest

Players can participate in this event by chatting with Simone once the designated time starts. They will also have to submit the fish they catch in a given time to get rewards. This contest can be tricky if a Rune Factory 5 player hasn't discovered fishing spots.

Flower Festival

This one requires a player to give flowers to their partner in the game in the town square. The requirements of the flowers will go up as the years go by, and players will require the Directive function to be unlocked for this.

Harvest Festival

This is the final festival of the Spring event, which will involve the vegetables being ranked by a judge in the game. There will be two factors in consideration by the judge - the level of the crop and the time it takes to grow it.

Beach Opening

This casual event where players meet each other on the beach and show off their swimwear.

Buffamoos Contest

Players will have to dodge the animals for 60 seconds, and each successful dodge will gain them points. In the first year of Rune Factory 5, players will have to score 18000 points to win.

Pet Contest

To participate in this contest, players will again have to chat with Simone, and the winning conditions depend on how a player has raised their pet in the game.

Seaside Lights Festival

This event involves players watching fireflies at night, and the goal will be to get other residents to join. The chances of residents joining depend on their relationship with the players. If they join, it could reward the players with many love points.

Harvest Festival

The summer season will also have a similar Harvest festival to Spring.
