On the Livestream, I thought I heard the Gurus say that Sulani Island Festivals occur almost daily. I've been playing Island Living for a good Sim week and I have yet to see one Sulani Island Festival. I take my Sims to the Beach or Sand Bar in that busy area of town and that's where I thought the festivals were to spawn/occur in that plaza like area. But I have yet to see anything. I had my Sims stay all day as I thought maybe I was missing something as I don't know what time they start. But still the same....no festivals are spawning. Has anyone had these festivals occur in their game? If so can you shed some light?

Some occur in that little shallow wading cove, some at the "festival ground" I don't know about the other neighborhoods as my sims live in the town area. look for there to be a fishy in netting balloon on the kiosk, that is your clue there is something going on. Usually it's sometime between 6pm-12pm. But not always sometimes it's in the afternoon

Of all the silly things we get notifications for - you would think we would get notifications for island events or they would be on the calendar. I have finally seen a few but only after my sim moved to the island they are on. The fishing one is in the cove. Others are in that festival area - they are no big deal though - just some sims around a bonfire that are usually not even the regular sims that live there. I have yet to see the sand castle contest one.

I’ve only seen two in my game so far.It would be cool if we could get notifications just like city living festivals.

Thanks everyone.....glad to see that they're happening in your games. Perhaps I'm just missing them by not being there at the right location or right time. My Sims live on that 50x50 lot on the island with the 4 lots (forgot its name). @AprilDawn - I totally agree; we do get notifications for anything and everything in the game, it would be nice if we got a notification for festivals too.

Notifications would be nice, it’s weird to get notifications for geek con but not island events.I’ve saw some festivals near the bar at the little gathering spot. One with a bonfire, another with painting and another with food and that drink.Yet to see fishing or any others

I am actually quite glad that there are no notifications. I get enough of those as it is. I'll just look for the balloons instead.

Hi sorry, where are the 'festival grounds' located? I have replaced most of the lots in the 'town' area so not sure if I've lost the festival grounds? I've been playing for some time and not seen any events or festivals happen in Sulani?

I really wish they'd give notice for these. Yes, we do get a lot of unnecessary notifications. They could cut back on those and give us notifications for island events. I'd be happy even if the notices only happened while you were in one of the island neighborhoods. As it is, my sims have not left the islands yet and I have not seen a single festival.

Hopefully, someone will make a mod for it as I doubt it will get patched in since it would be useful.

I wish there was a way to turn off the city living notifications and turn these on. Or at the very least, put them on the calendar.
