Carnival/Festival Grounds for Sims 4

Hello!

So, I don’t know how other simmers feel about this, but I’ve been thinking about this a lot. I would love to see seasonal festivals back in the Sims 4, similar to the seasonal festivals in Sims 3. Maybe a Carnival or Festival Game Pack. I loved having the festivals in San Myshuno and I would love to see more festivals related to the seasons as something extra to do for fun. There could be a new lot type called ‘Festival Grounds’ where these events will take place. In the calendar, it could be like a tradition or an option that we can check on/off, like “Attend Seasonal Festival” so that it generates in the parks or festival grounds. Maybe we could create our own carnival. I also miss having a stage area for musicians (or magicians/acrobats) to perform and maybe host concerts and performances, while sims could watch, react, throw things at the performers, etc. Contests could be held on these stages like karaoke or dance contests. (Some suggestions would also be good for a theme park vacation world :wink: )

Below, I included descriptions of what would take place in the events and some visuals in the spoilers for each one :smile:

Spooky Festival: Spooky decor, Haunted houses, dressing up in new costumes, trick or treating throughout the park, spooky parade, fog machines, spooky music and group dances (like the thriller dance), wooden rollercoaster, contests like apple bobbing and pumpkin carving, spooky themed face-in-hole photo board, face painting booth, creepy people scaring others, festive drinks like candy corn drinks and pumpkin spice lattes, festive foods like pumpkin pie and candy apples, finding porcelain dolls instead of gnomes showing up, creepy carnival tent with magic shows, spooky themed acrobat performances, etc), meet Patchy
