@EnkiSchmidt I was thinking more of a happy medium. Like, spawn a couple of new Sims in the t-shirts but still have some in-game Sims show up in their normal clothes. Or at least don't allow the game to change our played/favorited Sims at all.

I'd just like to be able to enjoy the events too without them destroying all the Sims I worked long and hard on. :(

It's cute but yeah I'm not fan of english text in game objects
so I probably won't ever use the english shirts (well voluntarily at least)

also it gave me much festival vibes
especially after one of my human culture loving aliens turned up
...shirtless ( I don't even use mods or cc
and idk if this is supposed to be a thing or a glitch but yeah she should be wearing some type of shirt :lol:)

and yes it had everyone in audience so shook all the time they forgot all about these random musicians :lol:
alien lady for win.

Here is how you disable sims wearing the t-shirts when the festival is going on in MC Tuner:

Click on your sim, go to MC Tuner, activate autonomy scan. Right click on the ground and search for autonomy, search for MusicFestival and a bunch of autonomy actions should show up.

Disable the following by clicking on them, they might be translated to the language you are playing on. It's the same that EnkiSchmidt listed.

I have not seen any of my sims wearing t-shirts after that.

Is it the camera I use (Sims3 camera) , but right clicking to ground only moves the camera around, I used just regular left click.

Thank you both for the instructions, I searched MusicFestival at their home lot from all autonomy instructions and managed to disable them before even going to festival :)

Yep, it should have been left click, not right click, I almost got everything right :D

So I ended up enjoying this way more than I thought I would. As luck would have it, I was just about to play my household with the "musical instrument" naming theme when this was announced.

My first (pleasant) surprise was that as soon as the family arrived at the park, all of them automatically started going towards the stage-which was a good thing because the festival area is actually a bit of a hike from the main park. (Am I the only one who had kind of...forgotten about all that extra space around the park lot?) Luckily, the family seemed to know exactly where to go-even the toddlers.

And yes, this family did bring not one, but two toddlers to a music festival. It went...better than you would think. The parents were able to interact with their kids during the performances-at one point, the dad even started playing with his toddler son. I thought this moment was cute as it looked like he was holding him on his shoulders to see better.

The crowd was a nice mix of my own playable Sims and pre-mades/townies. Given how unpredictable crowds of Sims can often be, I have to say I was impressed by how the event played out. The Sims autonomously gathered and reacted when the performance was going on, including cheering, clapping, and swaying their arms in the air. Even the kids got into it.

But between the actual performances, the crowd broke up and the Sims visited the souvenir stall, rested in the tents, and browsed the sale table. When it was time for the next performance, back to the stage they went.

I did try to have my own Sims perform as well, but by the time the "official" performances wrapped up there wasn't much time left in the event. I did notice that both adults and kids have the option to "get on stage" after the performances are over, so if you have a musically inclined child Sim this might be something to try out.

I really want to see more events like this in the future.

I'm going to try something out, but I don't know if it will make my game glitch or not... What happens if you try adding one of the performers to the household using cheats? Will you be able to do that? And then, who comes to perform next Sunday? ???

I tried finding the performers with MC Command Center afterwards but I couldn't see them. They are not hidden sims like Kylo Ren and Rey either (or MC Command center can just not find them). Maybe the game generates them and then deletes them after the performance.

Well, this is an interesting update and unexpected. I just have a few questions.
1. Are these performers supposed to be imitations of some real performers? If they are, I don't know them. Has anyone asked the gurus? Would like to know.

@Cinebar , yes, they are all real performers!

I had only heard of Bebe Rexha before this event, but I ended up liking Joy Oladokun the most. Here is the original version of Breathe Again:

Thank you, @PalmArrow, I'm behind the times, I don't know most newer celebs these days. That's an interesting video.

I enjoyed this festival a lot, but I'm glad I read this thread first and made a throwaway save just to visit it - I would hate it if too many townies suddenly switched their clothes for festival shirts in my regular saves!

I let the game create a Sim for me and moved him to a cheap apartment in San Myshuno. Then I just made him go outside and chat with townies while waiting for the festival notification. It came around noon.

It was fun to see familiar townies gather around the stage to listen.

My Sim bought a festival T-shirt and put it on. (I bought this one because I like simlish text, and a Joy Oladokun shirt because it was the prettiest one.)

During the break townies bought food and festival shirts, which I liked because it was exactly what a real festival audience would do. Bella Goth never exchanged her signature red dress for a festival shirt, though!

Then everyone gathered around the stage again for the second performer.

By the time the headliner was on, there was quite a sizeable crowd.
