I am a console player and also having this problem, the fair is simply not there. My sim travels to the site but the field is empty, it’s just not there. I have no mods or cc because I am a PS5 player. This is very frustrating

What do you mean I never came back? You asked me to update my post, I did. No one else asked for more information or gave me a solution. It doesn't work in my one save but another save it does work and shows up. Not sure why or what happened to my one save. I'll happily reply to anyone who actually asks a question or has a useful solution to try.

@Kittyarow Sorry, I totally missed that you edited your post. I could have sworn there was nothing but I guess I was half-asleep still :D

 

Unfortunately threads's aren't bumped to the top when you just edit them.

 

Could you please list the packs you own ? This is important info. If it's too many, you can say everything except.

 

EDIT:

 

Also, as this is the bug forum, often there's no solutions and unless someone has experienced this as well and found a workaround, there's probably no solution unless EA fixes it.

Good Luck

Does it make a difference which lot you travel to for the fair? I always used to attend via the pub, though admittedly I haven't bothered in a while. But I have seen other people have trouble with the fair not appearing - even disappearing - if they traveled there via a retail lot. Third option would be from one of the residential lots...

 

Just curious if lot type makes a difference for you.

@PipMenaceI have traveled to the lot 3X through the pub which is where you are taken by default when you click on the notification, once to the llama fair, once to the chicken fair, and once to the harvest fair, each time there was no fair to attend but the grocery booth did allow me to sell my produce at a 10% markup as advertised in the Fenwick flyer so that’s something. Weirdest darn bug. I’m disappointed, I paid for this expansion and I can’t even use one of the primary features. I’m giving up on ever being able to attend

I’ve had other problems with cottage living as well, only crumplebottom shows up to her proper job, but some random townie is manning the produce booth and it’s a different one each time, Michael bell is tending bar at the gnomes arms and Kim has taken up waitressing! The Fenwick sign won’t even acknowledge these characters exist, frankly the whole pack is bugged !
