📋 About This Mod
Works with all vanilla festivals.
Other mods should be able to use Content Patcher to add warnings for their festivals if they want.
All notifications (except vanilla) can be turned off or adjusted.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved with 334 endorsements and over 54k downloads—clearly a mod people trust.
- Simple QoL improvement that saves you from missing festivals, which is a real pain in Stardew.
- Lightweight and focused—does exactly what it says without bloat.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in November 2024—could be outdated if the game has had major updates since then.
- Only covers festivals, not other events like birthdays or market days, so you'll still need to check the calendar for those.
For Stardew Valley players who hate missing festivals and want a heads-up without checking the calendar constantly. Perfect for busy farmers who are deep in the mines or fishing when a festival starts. Skip if you already have a comprehensive event reminder mod or don't care about festivals.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have SMAPI installed and the latest version of Stardew Valley, as this mod likely requires it.
- If you use a mod manager like Vortex, you can install this mod with a couple of clicks, but manual install is just dropping files into your Mods folder.
- Test the audio notifications in-game to ensure they're not too loud or too quiet—adjust your game's sound settings if needed.
