Stardew Valley Fair

The Stardew Valley Fair takes place on the 16th of Fall every year at 9:00AM at the Pelican Town Square.

There are several games where the player can gain Star Tokens, a currency that can be exchanged for prizes at the Shop near the entrance to the Bus Stop.

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

The player can eat the food to refill their energy bar, but this won't be noticeable until exiting the festival.

	Clairvoyant Booth	data-sort-value="100">100g	At the Clairvoyance Booth, the Fortune Teller will tell you events from the future for data-sort-value="100">100g once.

Showcase

To participate in the showcase, bring up to nine items to put in the grange display which best showcase the players abilities. The showcase will be judged on the quality and diversity of the display, and is rewarded with star tokens based on the place achieved.

Place	Prize	Points required
First Place	data-sort-value="1000">1,000	90
Second Place	data-sort-value="500">500	75
Third Place	data-sort-value="200">200	60
Fourth Place	data-sort-value="50">50	<60

Scoring

The points are calculated as follows:

Base Points

14 points are awarded automatically.

Number of Items

Points based on how many items are submitted, according to the formula: 9-2x(Number of blank slots on display).

Number of items	Points awarded
9	9
8	7
7	5
6	3
5	1
4	-1
3	-3
2	-5
1	-7
0	-9

It is always better to try and fill all nine spots, even if the items submitted are trash, since leaving any spot empty will lessen the overall score.

Categories

Each of the eight categories; Animal Products, Artisan Goods, Vegetables, Fruits, Minerals, Cooking, Fish and combined (Foraging + Flowers + Tree Saps) 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. Any items which do not fall into any of these categories will not earn the additional 5 points.

Value

A number of points for each item are awarded based on its value and quality, with a maximum of 6 points per item.

Item Value	No Star	Silver Star	Gold Star
0+	1	2	3
20+	2	3	4
90+	3	4	5
200+	4	5	6
300+	5	6	6
400+	6	6	6

Assuming that nine items, each worth 6 points, are submitted and that the items represent at least six unique categories, the highest theoretical score obtainable is 107.

Once the judging is complete, make sure to retrieve the items from the table, as they are not automatically returned.

Games can still be played at the fair after the showcase.
