Festivals Not Spawning

Since installing the Cottage Living expansion I've found none of the festivals/events from the other packs are spawning. I've got all the packs so I should still be getting the festivals from City Living and Snowy Escape. I don't have any mods installed. And when I go to any of the boards in either San Myshuno or Mt Komorebi the festivals still show there with the dates etc but they never actually spawn. I've started new games a couple of times and it's still the same.

    Let's have a go at refreshing the whole game folder and test a new save then the old one, and one earlier version: Exit Sims 4 then drag your whole Sims 4 folder from Document > Electronic Arts to your desktop. Launch Sims 4 and reset your Options. Open "New" and see how that is. Now exit, drag just the new save into the new Saves folder and try again. If that one is still bugged, try testing an earlier version of that save.

    @everglowsim Do you have mods or CC in your Mods folder? If so, do a "vanilla" test to see if a mod/CC is your problem: Move (not copy) the Mods folder to the desktop (or rename it), delete the file called localthumbcache, open the game to test, and exit without saving.

    @everglowsim Try running a Game Repair in the EA App (or the equivalent in Steam) to see if it was just an issue with downloading the program.

    Are you on PC or Mac?

    @everglowsim Perhaps you're not looking for the right thing in Cottage Living? It doesn't have something called a "Festival". It has "fairs".
