Villagers of Castanet ring in the end of the year by holding the New Years Eve Festival in Harvest Moon: Animal Parade. This festival occurs every year on the 28th day of Winter, from 6PM until midnight. It features various shops, a fashion contest, a fireworks display, and a new year countdown. Shops are open until 11PM, and the fireworks are displayed at 12AM. The festival ends at 3AM. This is not a romantic festival.
