LotRO Fall Festival guide: Dances, horses, pies and ale

With the exception of the Troves and Trickery quests, some of this year's festival is repeated from last year. Not to say this is a bad thing though, as much of it is here for those newer players to experience, or to work on the continuation of certain titles, such as for the Inn League.

Dancing
The dancing quests and rewards are all exactly like the ones from previous Summer and Fall Harvest festivals. You can find a handy guide to the dancing here.

Inn-League
This Hobbit-centric chain of quests is back again for the enjoyment of those players who may have missed it previously, or for those working to advance their Inn-League titles and status. You can find out more information on our complete guide to the Inn-League.

Harvest Provisioners
These NPCs will sell you certain ale that is only available during the cooler fall months. Whether you are a connoisseur of fine spirits, or simply love to get plastered, these are the merchants for you.

Horse Racing
These races are held in the same places as previously, with the All-Shire Run just south of Michel Delving and the Bree Derby held in the Bree-land Festival Grounds. The horse reward is identical to the one from last year's festival, and a brief guide can be found here.

Traveling Farmer in Hobbiton
This NPC, standing just west of the Inn-League NPC, has been setting up her farming building since the Summer Festival. She gives a small collection of quests for those players who planted crops with her during the Summer Festival earlier this year. The reward is a Black Mushroom Pot, used as a housing decoration.

Pie-Eating Contest
This Bree-land contest is the same as it has been for every previous festival. Simply talk to Humbert Sandheaver in the Bree-land festival grounds and he'll ask you to eat 6 pies in 60 seconds. Upon completion, you'll get the "Pie-Eating Champion" title to show off to your friends. It's interesting to note though that this event is only available during late morning through early evening in game time. Turbine has commented in the past about this event being considered more of an Easter egg than anything, as it has a 33% chance of showing up on each given day.

So there you have it. We hope this exhaustive guide will help you in your holiday celebrations, and get you those festival rewards you've been eying. Of course, we can't mention it enough, but be sure to check out the complete gallery for a visual guide to the NPCs, maps, masks and more!
