[A-RP] Event - The Winter's Veil Festival Weekend - Gilneas

Hello again and thank you for reading!

The Gilneas Denizens ADEU Community and the Gilneas Community would like to invite you all to the Winter’s Veil Weekend in Gilneas.

With Winter’s Veil just around the corner, Gilneas is abuzz with preparations for a long weekend of festivities that promises to be unforgettable. This year, the citizens are putting their heart into creating an enchanting Winter’s Veil market and an elegant ball, among other delightful events.

We kick the festival weekend off with…

A magical Winter’s Veil celebration under starlit skies and snow-dusted trees! To kick off the holiday weekend, we invite you to embark on a serene, enchanted evening walk through the wintry forest.

And that was the overload of information done…

We’re still looking for stall holders for the market. If you are interested feel free to drop me a DM on Discord or in Game. I’m on most WoW Servers for AD.

We’re also looking for taverns/inn to collab with on the food for the Winter’s ball.

I hope it will be a truly magical time for all of Gilneas! :christmas_tree: :gift: :snowman_with_snow:

It seems the moment has arrived to lead everyone through the Nutcracker ballet—brace yourselves for a whirlwind of pirouettes and questionable grace!

All jokes aside, the guided dancing on December 15th will follow a similar format to my previous dance gatherings, with each move clearly instructed and CAPs used for /emotes. We’ll most likely have two choreographies, with at least one involving dancing with a partner. Honored to be a part of this!

Looking forward to seeing you there on my human alt! Kudos to Yazmin for a lovely initiative!

We’ve done two of our weekend events so far and it’s been amazing!

Friday we had a lovely walk around the woodlands of Gilneas. Followed by some Sleding, warm drinks and a story about an infamous Gilneas Sheep.

This evening we had a wonderful market. Lots of stalls. Lots of new faces! Warm drinks! And finally a fantastic build a snowman competition! Which the miner snowman won.

We’re looking forward to celebrating the closing of the events tomorrow with our Winters veil ball :heart:

Pinned to the noticeboards in Gilneas:

:sparkles:Welcome to Dance at the Winter Ball!:sparkles:

This fine evening, among many other enticing activities, the revelers have the opportunity to learn two festive dances, Starlight Row and Kisses Under the Mistletoe.

Both dances require a dance partner, so bring your sweetheart, your best friend, or even that mysterious neighbor who always borrows sugar - it’s the perfect excuse to pair up!

The choreographies will be guided step by step, intended to be easy to follow along, allowing everyone join in on making merry with their feet.

We can’t wait to see you twirl on the dance floor!

Merry Winter Veil,
Fairsky and Eiresione

Delighted to help Yazmin a little with tonight’s festivities! The dance choreographies at tonight’s ball will use a variety of movement patterns and emotes (you might like to macro /clap, /wave and /bow). The emotes will be alluded to with CAPs in the verbal instructions.

There will be background music played via Watch2Gether website during the activity, to add to the immersion of characters dancing. It’ll be linked to from my character’s (Fairsky) TRP at the event. See you there! :christmas_tree:

I just want to say a massive thank you to everyone that helped out this evening.
Diarath for playing the fantastic music.
The Dove and Doronez Winery for serving food and drinks!

Acrona for all the amazing hardwork she puts into the dances!

It was a complete blast!

I also want to say thank you to everyone that came over the last three days to the Gilneas Winter Veil events. We’re so grateful to see such support and without you. We can’t do events like this. So thank you and until next year <3

Happy Holiday and A Happy New Year to you all <3
