The bug template is currently working on/pff but it helps if you are not prompted for the template while editing, please answer the questions anyways.

What do you mean I never came back? You asked me to update my post, I did. No one else asked for more information or gave me a solution. It doesn't work in my one save but another save it does work and shows up. Not sure why or what happened to my one save. I'll happily reply to anyone who actually asks a question or has a useful solution to try.

@Kittyarow Sorry, I totally missed that you edited your post. I could have sworn there was nothing but I guess I was half-asleep still :D Unfortunately threads's aren't bumped to the top when you just edit them. Could you please list the packs you own ? This is important info. If it's too many, you can say everything except. EDIT: Also, as this is the bug forum, often there's no solutions and unless someone has experienced this as well and found a workaround, there's probably no solution unless EA fixes it.

Does it make a difference which lot you travel to for the fair? I always used to attend via the pub, though admittedly I haven't bothered in a while. But I have seen other people have trouble with the fair not appearing - even disappearing - if they traveled there via a retail lot. Third option would be from one of the residential lots...Just curious if lot type makes a difference for you.

I also changed the lot from bar to restaurant in this save as well. I wonder if that has anything to do with it?

@Knotwise13 @Kittyarow I suspect that's it - the restaurant system is similar to the retail one right? I think basically the fair breaks if accessed via an ownable business lot. I'll bet if you built a vet clinic on the square, accessing the fair from there would break too.

@PipMenace As it happens I DO have a vet clinic on the square, I bulldozed one of the residences because I got tired of switching screens, I will try attempting to enter the fair from the clinic and see what happens, and I will change the pub back to a bar lot and try entering from there. I will report back but I suspect you are right, the fair just doesn’t like it if you enter from anywhere that isn’t a bar or residence

The Finchwick Fair never shows up when my Sims go to visit it. The green space where it's meant to take place just stays empty. Anyone else had this issue?
