A dark presence in The Equestrian Festival...

Hey StarFam! Despite the festive spirit up in the air, a new yet familiar face tries hard to sabotage the festival. What are they up to?!

Two brand-new horses!

During the last two weeks of the festival, two new horse variations are available to buy at the Jorvik Stables Open House!

★ A new version of the English Thoroughbred makes its debut! This English Thoroughbred will be yours for 850 Star Coins. #EnglishThoroughBoss
★ A new Arabian coat color can also join your family for 950 Star Coins. Click the spacebar while the Arabian is standing still to witness it gracefully rear up and walk on its hind legs. #AwesomeArabians

The horses can be found at the Jorvik Stables Open House, meaning they are exclusive to Star Riders.

These coat variations are only here for the remainder of the festival!

Elite Cross Country Race

Ready for a challenge? Well, it’s time to try out the new Elite Cross Country Race brought to you at Jorvik Stables. This race is a true test of your cross country skills, we hope you’ve been training hard!

The race is at the Jorvik Stables Open House, meaning it is exclusive to Star Riders.

Recycling with Big Bonny

A lot of visitors results in a lot of rubbish! Of course, Big Bonny has just the thing to help. Her invention, H.O.R.S.E. (aka the Household Object Reimagination Service Extraordinaire), turns trash into treasure! The invention isn’t new, but Big Bonny has tweaked it just in time for the festival. H.O.R.S.E. can now turn trash into Spring Tokens! Help clean up the festival grounds AND get closer to your next token reward. How’s that for a win-win?

You will find Big Bonny and her H.O.R.S.E. at the festival grounds in Moorland. To get started you must complete an intro quest with Tan.

Bring your collected recyclables to Big Bonny at the Moorland festival grounds!

Help the Soul Riders!

Help Linda & Alex prepare their Festival booth at the Open House in the Jorvik Stables (better late than never!). But things appear to go awry! Is somebody sabotaging the festivities?

You will find Linda and Alex at the Jorvik Stables. You can also talk to Tan at the Moorland Festival grounds to get an intro. To begin this quest you must be a Star Rider.

Flower picking

Even more seems to be amiss! Somebody has sabotaged Lily’s flower decorations. Now she needs help replacing them! Find flowers for Lily and help beautify the festival grounds.

To help Lily, you must be a Star Rider. You will find her at the Jorvik Stables Open House.

New companions

Some new feathered friends have made their grand entrance at the Equestrian Festival, but fear not! They plan on sticking around even after the festival ends! One raven pet will be available through the Spring Token system, while one is available to purchase. Plus some shiny, new balloons float their way into the festival grounds. Two balloons are available to purchase and one is available through the Spring Token system. Find them all at the festival grounds in Moorland.

New feathered friends can be found in Moorland

Last week reminder

Our Akhal-Tekes and Appaloosa Horses from Generation 1.5 that currently can be found at Ferdinand's Horse Market are leaving us for greener pastures. During the Wednesday update on April 27th, they will leave Jorvik and not be available for purchase from then on. While we love each and every one of our old horses, we sometimes need to do some changes to ensure the game can run at the best possible performance. One of these changes will be to slowly phase out our very oldest horses. The Akhal-Teke and the Appaloosa from Generation 1.5 will be the first to get their well-deserved retirement! If you already have purchased any of these horses, no need to worry! The horses will stay unchanged in your safe ownership. Please note that they will not be further supported with bug fixes, updates, or new tack!
