The '''Stardew Valley Fair''' is a [[Festivals|festival]] that takes place on Tuesday, the 16th of [[Fall]] every year. The player attends the fair by entering [[Pelican Town]] between 9am and 3pm. When the player leaves the festival, they will be returned to [[The Farm]] at 10pm.

On the day of the Festival, the player cannot enter Pelican Town until 9am. Every home and shop outside the town square is "locked" and cannot be entered before or during the festival.

There are several games where the player can earn [[File:Token.png|24px|link=]]Star Tokens, a currency that can be exchanged for prizes at the Shop near the entrance to the [[Bus Stop]]. The maximum number of tokens that can be held is 9,999.

The purchase limit on each of the available fixed stock items is 1 (until next year when they replenish). Therefore, the maximum number of Star Tokens that may be used for the fixed stock is 3,900 (1,900 if they have already purchased the [[Stardrop]]). The Shop will be fully stocked again the following year, with the exception of the [[Stardrop]] which may be purchased only once. Star tokens do not carry over from the previous year, but the grange event can be repeated to earn more star points.

The Fair also has a Grange Display contest where products of the farm can be shown to gain Star Tokens. Talk to Mayor [[Lewis]] when ready to have the products judged.

All of the Grange Display items can be picked up after judging, but they will '''NOT''' be automatically returned to the inventory. If the player leaves the items behind in the Grange Display, as of {{version|1.5|version 1.5}}, they can retrieve them later in the [[Mayor's Manor|Lost and Found]].

North of the fair by the fountains, [[Gus]] can be found cooking [[Survival Burger]]s, which the player can eat to refill their energy bar, but this won't be noticeable until exiting the festival.

|At the Spinning Wheel, the player can bet Star Tokens on whether the spinner will land on green or orange.
When the spinner falls below a certain speed, if it would cause the spinner to land on the losing colour, there is a chance for it to set its speed to a higher speed, proportional to the player's [[Luck#Luck_Buff|Luck]]. This chance is equal to <samp>Luck / 15</samp> if the player chose Green, or <samp>Luck / 20</samp> if the player chose Orange.<ref name="spinnerLuck"/> As the player cannot eat or drink in the festival (other than Gus's [[Survival Burger|Survival Burgers]]), the player would need to use any Luck-improving consumables before entering the festival in order to maximize the chance of winning.
With no Luck modifiers, the Wheel is ~3.3 times more likely to land on Green than Orange.<ref Name="initialVelocity"/> By taking advantage of this, players can quickly earn the star tokens required to purchase all items in the shop. For maximum expected profit while protecting against losses, the player should always bet 65% of their current stars on Green.<ref Name="OptimalBet"/>

To participate in the showcase, '''bring up to 9 items''' to put in the grange display which best showcase the player's abilities. The display will be judged on the quality and diversity of the items, and is rewarded with star tokens based on the place achieved. Items can be retrieved after the judging is completed.

The display will be judged on the quality and diversity of the items, and is rewarded with star tokens based on the place achieved. Items can be retrieved after the judging is completed.
In a multiplayer game, there is a single display for the farm that is '''shared by all players'''. Only one player may interact with the display at a time - if a player is putting or removing items from the display, no other players may interact with the display. Once the host is satisfied with the display, they can initiate the judging by talking to Lewis. Lewis will score the display, and all players will receive the same placement. Once the judging is complete, each player '''must separately talk to Lewis''' to receive the Star Tokens.

There are eight categories of items recognized by the Fair: '''Animal Products''', '''Artisan Goods''', '''Cooking''', '''Fish''', '''Foraging''' (including '''Flowers''' and '''Tree Saps'''), '''Fruits''', '''Minerals''', and '''Vegetables'''. Each category represented in the display earns 5 points, up to a maximum of 30 points. This means only six of these categories need to be filled to maximize the score.

A number of points for each item are awarded based on its sell price and quality, with a maximum of 8 points per item. The sell price used in-game is the actual sell price, not the base sell price. For example, a gold-quality item with a base sell price of {{price|200}} would earn points for having an actual sell price of {{price|300}} AND for being gold quality.

Assuming that nine items, each worth 8 points, are submitted and that the items represent at least six unique categories, the highest score obtainable is {{#expr: (14 + 8*9 + 9-2*0 + 5*6) }} (14 + 72 + 9 + 30). Getting the maximum score of 125 is only possible if one has access to [[Deluxe Fertilizer]]. Out of the eight categories that exist, six contain 8-point items: Animal Products, Artisan Goods, Fish, Foraging, Fruits, and Vegetables. 8 point Vegetable items are only obtainable with [[Deluxe Fertilizer]]. Without deluxe fertilizer to grow iridium quality crops, the next best vegetable item is the iridium-quality fiddlehead fern, at 7 points. Because of this, the highest score obtainable without access to Deluxe Fertilizer is 124.

* In the Spinning Wheel game, when the arrow is about to land on the wrong color, it may randomly gain a small boost, playing a "dwop" sound, and eventually land on the right color, allowing the player to win the bet. This chance is affected by the player's [[Luck]] level, and the trigger area is only 7/16 of a circle for each color.<ref>See <samp>WheelSpinGame::update</samp> in the game code.</ref>
* After Stardew Valley Fair, [[Jack-O-Lantern]]s spawn in front of multiple houses in Pelican Town. 4 [[Decorative Lantern]]s also spawn in the graveyard.
