(→‎Skull Cavern: Added in-game pop-up descriptions for Calico Statues. There are 18 possible effects. Still looking at data from the code - please correct if I read the numbers wrong.)
(→‎Emily's Outfit Services: Added more details from Content\Data\MakeoverOutfits.json. There are 61 outfits, so I'm not listing them all for now. It seems like this is the only way to get Dark Ballcap, Joja Cap, and Laurel Wreath Crown.)

The Chef gives the player a choice of ingredients to make them a meal with varying effects depending on the ingredients chosen. The player may do so repeatedly and choose different ingredients each time. The meal will be eaten; any effects will be applied immediately and last for variable durations. The buffs from dishes are a combination of buffs from both ingredient choices, e.g; Crystal Cake would grant both {{name|Mining|+3|class=inline}} and {{name|Luck|+1|class=inline}} buffs.

===Skull Cavern===
 
===Skull Cavern===
During the Desert Festival, [[Gil]] and [[Marlon]] of the [[Adventurer's Guild]] offer one-day quests that will award the player Calico Eggs if completed. These quests are Monster Slaying or Exploring Quests, in which the player must slay a number of monsters, or reach a certain level in the [[Skull Cavern]]. The player does not need to have obtained the skull key to enter skull caverns during the festival, and the skull caverns function as they normally do (including Treasure Rooms and hard-mode ("Dangerous", "Skull Cavern Invasion") skull caverns; as such, if hard-mode is toggled on, one may want to toggle it off before the festival!)

"Egg Levels" are granted 1 every 5 floors and additionally every time a Calico Statue is activated. Talking to Gil presents the option to submit the day's egg level for a prize. This prize (is based on egg level?) can include eggs (100 on egg level 20?+), Triple Shot Espresso (x5 on egg level 20?+) and [[Gil's Hat]] (egg level 25?+).

The Skull Cavern has a few additions that are unique to the Desert Festival. There are Calico Egg mining nodes which, when mined, yield {{Price|1-3|Calico}}. Players also gain 1 "Egg Rating" for every 5 floors reached and every Calico Statue activated. Calico Statues may randomly appear once per floor (even Treasure Rooms). Activating the statue grants a random effect that lasts throughout the player's current descent into the Cavern.

This page or section contains unmarked spoilers from update 1.6 of Stardew Valley. Players may want to avoid or be cautious toward reading this article/section.

Desert Festival.png

The Desert Festival is a festival that happens every year in the Desert on Spring 15th, 16th, and 17th. Unlike non-festival days, players may enter the desert prior to when Pam arrives at the Bus Stop. However, the event officially starts at 10am each day. On the final day of the festival, the player must wait until Pam arrives to drive the bus at 10am. This event requires the Bus to be repaired in order to visit the festival.

Sandy's shop will not be open for the duration of the festival, however the player may still enter the Oasis. The Desert Trader is still present and her shop is accessible.

Several challenges and attractions offer the ability to earn this festival's currency, Calico Egg.png Calico Eggs. Calico Eggs are physical items within the game that can be used to purchase items from the various shops during the Desert Festival. Eggs appear to carry over from day to day and can be saved until the last day of the festival. However, they will disappear from chests or inventory at the end of the festival and do not appear to be able to be saved for the following year. The eggs can be sold in the player's shipping bin, but they yield no gold.

Attractions

The Races

Throughout the day, players may bet on races that take place on the hour. If a player's chosen contestant wins, they will receive data-sort-value="20">Calico Egg.png 20 per win. This is repeatable up until 11pm when the final race of the day ends.

The player can also cheat the race by giving the Suspicious Man next to the Oasis data-sort-value="1">Calico Egg.png 1 in exchange for one of the race contestants of the player's choosing possibly losing the race.

The 5 possible contestants are Speed Rooster, King Sting, Shoebiscuit, Escar-go, and Cactus Crawler. Only 3 contestants will race each day.

Calico Egg Merchant

The Calico Egg Merchant sells several accessories and furniture items, as well as various usable items. Some items are sold every day, while others are only available on certain days.

Emily's Outfit Services

Every day, Emily and Sandy offer the player a random new outfit with a short cutscene, in which Emily will pick the clothing that "embodies the player". The player's original outfit is placed in their inventory. If the player tries to re-enter the hut in which the clothing service happens, the player will be blocked from entering, with Emily saying that the player looks great in their new outfit. On days where Emily runs a Villager Shop, Sandy will take over after a bit of hesitation.

There are 61 total makeover outfits: 34 gender-neutral, 13 male-only, and 14 female-only. Each outfit consists of a shirt, a pant, and possibly a hat. Of note, the Dark Ballcap, Joja Cap, and Laurel Wreath Crown can be obtained with three of the gender-neutral outfits.

Chef

Chef Desert Festival.png

The Chef gives the player a choice of ingredients to make them a meal with varying effects depending on the ingredients chosen. The player may do so repeatedly and choose different ingredients each time. The meal will be eaten; any effects will be applied immediately and last for variable durations. The buffs from dishes are a combination of buffs from both ingredient choices, e.g; Crystal Cake would grant both Mining.png Mining (+3) and Luck.png Luck (+1) buffs. Any dish will restore the player to maximum health and energy.

All Available Dish Combinations:
Choices: Rich Marinara Defense.png Defense (+1) Mushroom Creme Mining.png Mining (+1) Cherry Syrup Luck.png Luck (+1) Pungent Garlic Attack.png Attack (+1) Uncomfortably Hot Sauce Speed.png Speed (+1)

Free Cactus

Once per festival, the player may obtain a cactus decor item from the Cactus Salesman at the bottom of the map. This decor is one out of several, and its face, colors, and design vary.

Skull Cavern

During the Desert Festival, Marlon offers one-day Skull Cavern-related quests that will award the player Calico Eggs if completed. There are 3 types of quests offered; 2 will randomly be shown each day. The player does not need to have obtained the Skull Key to enter the Skull Cavern during the festival, and the Skull Cavern functions as it normally does (including Treasure Rooms and hard-mode ("Dangerous", "Skull Cavern Invasion"); as such, if hard-mode is toggled on, one may want to toggle it off before the festival!).

Skull Cavern Quests 
Quest Name Quest Text Requirements Reward
Monster Hunt Descend into the Skull Cavern and slay 10 [Monster]. Slay 10 of one of the following: data-sort-value="35">Calico Egg.png 35

The Skull Cavern has a few additions that are unique to the Desert Festival. There are Calico Egg mining nodes which, when mined, yield data-sort-value="1-3">Calico Egg.png 1-3. Players also gain 1 "Egg Rating" for every 5 floors reached and every Calico Statue activated. Calico Statues may randomly appear once per floor (even Treasure Rooms). Activating the statue grants a random effect that lasts throughout the player's current descent into the Cavern.

Talking to Gil presents the option to submit the day's highest Egg Rating for prizes. These prizes, based on the player's Egg Rating, include Calico Eggs, food, drinks, and other items.

Gil's Egg Rating Prizes

5-9 "...[Egg Rating #]? That's not too impressive, but at least you had the gumption to try. Here's a little something."
10-14 "[Egg Rating #], huh? Not bad, not bad... of course, when I was your age I was doin' twice that. With a Rusty Sword, and no food!"
15-19 "[Egg Rating #]... that ain't bad at all. That's the kind of number we're looking for in the Adventurer's Guild. Here's your prize."

Harvey's Medical Station

If the player loses all Health in the Skull Cavern and is knocked out, they will awaken at Harvey's "shop" located in the festival next to the Cavern entrance. The player will awaken with 10 Health, and they will not lose any additional Energy or Gold. The player will keep their items, but they will lose 20% of the Calico Eggs in their inventory. Talking to Harvey will result in the same dialogue as before the player died.

Willy's Fishing Quests

Willy offers one-day fishing-related quests that will award the player Calico Eggs upon completion. There is a different quest for each day of the festival. On Spring 17, the Golden Bobber.pngGolden Bobber will appear in the first Treasure Chest fished up.

Scholar

The Scholar asks the player a series of four questions. If all four answers are correct, then the reward is data-sort-value="50">Calico Egg.png 50. The player has one chance per day to achieve this. After a successful round of questions, the player must wait until next year to receive another reward. Questions are randomized every time they are asked.

The question that asks "How many steps have you taken?" will always be answered by the middle option. The lower option is 0.5x your steps taken, while the higher option is 2x your steps.

Shrouded Figure

The Shrouded Figure offers to teleport the player back to their farm for data-sort-value="250">Gold.png250g, like in the Night Market during Winter. It functions the same as the Warp Totem: Farm.

Traveling Cart

The Traveling Cart makes an appearance with her standard cart, sporting an umbrella over the pig's head. A selection of the usual items is sold (with a new re-randomized stock for each of the 3 days), including the Wedding Ring recipe in a Multiplayer game. The shop opens at 12 pm.

Villager Attendees

Like the Night Market, villagers will deviate from their regular schedules to attend the Desert Festival. Alongside the festival-goers, some villagers host their own shops during the festival. However, players are able to walk into the shops through the back, meaning these villagers are still available for gifting, talking, or quest completion while at their post. Which villagers host a shop on which day is seemingly random, and their shops are available from 12 pm to 12 am.

Notes

  • The trash bin next to the Calico Egg Merchant's shop can be checked and contains Calico Egg.png Calico Eggs once per day.
