Forge Day
A festive day celebrating creativity and imagination.
Forge Day is a festive day celebrating creativity and imagination and is celebrated on Midday, 25th of Feastcall every year.
The tradition was introduced to The Isles of Meles when Ves Paluvians introduced the festival by bringing together communities from over seas to celebrate the creation of new things, sharing knowledge and gifts with each other. Each year the traditions reach further afield, making the celebrations consecutively greater every year.
Every village competes to make the biggest, heaviest Anvil Cake they can, and communities share handcrafted gifts, songs and drinks. It is a chance for artisans to showcase their best work and learn new techniques from others (something that the artisans of Crestford take great pride in).
