The Indie title has many festivals, so think of them as events in which you can achieve many different objectives. One of those events is the Animal Festival, and if you want to know how to complete it, this article will walk you through the Animal Festival in Fields of Mistria.
How To Complete The Animal Festival in Fields of Mistria

The Animal Festival in Fields of Mistria takes place once every year, according to the game’s timeline. If you take a look at the calendar in the game, then you will notice that the Festival starts right on the 10th day of winter. If you are playing the game for the first time, then you have no choice but to wait till winter, but if you are a returning player, then you can load an older save to play The Animal Festival.
Once the festival begins, you will instantly notice its mark all over the game. The town will be filled with hay stacks and various animal-themed decorations. Of course, most people would want to get into the smaller and bigger animal competitions but there are a lot of other things to do at the Festival as well.
The Animal Festival Contest

If you are fond of breeding animals, then you can speak with Josephine at the wooden podium at the center to enter one big and one small animal into the Animal Festival Contest. When you talk to Josephine, you will get the option to choose any small or large animal from your menu.
Newcomers should have a good understanding of the game’s base mechanics by Winter, but still, we should tell you that if you want to have a chance of winning The Animal Festival Contest, then you should definitely choose the animals with a rare coat color or the most hearts. When you have settled on which animals to enter, talk to Josephine and begin the contest. After that, you will see a short cutscene, and the winners of the competition will be declared.
Visit Nora’s Stall

However, if you don’t want to enter such a competition, don’t worry, there are plenty of other things to do in the Animal Festival of Fields of Mistria, such as shopping. If you have something to buy, then you should head straight to Nora’s stall. From gifts and recipes to animal cosmetics, she has everything. Here’s a list of Nora’s items if you decide to visit her shop.

Build Relationships with the NPCs

Festivals are a great place to socialize and build some relationships, romantic, platonic, or other. The Animal Festival is no different. It is a good opportunity if you are looking to build connections with the town’s NPCs. In the Festival, you can speak to various NPCs about the festival itself, and special dialogue options will appear.
For example, if you speak to Hayden, you will be able to talk about Henrietta if she wins. But it does not always have to be talking. Sometimes, to build some meaningful relationships, all you have to do is stand next to them and enjoy the delightful Animal cardboard cutouts.
