Festival Strip

The Festival Strip is the most southern district in the city. It is located on the south side of the bridges. It is extremely busy during the most popular festivals, and has smaller attendance for the various smaller festivals. During the summer there is a festival every week, in the spring and fall times a festival occurs around 4 times a month, and in the winter there is a festival once or twice in a month. On those times when a festival is not being held, this district is vacant, with some small but notable exceptions.
When no festivals are being held, this area is mostly a ghost town. While there is tavern in this area, it is only open during festivals or if someone rents the space for big events. Many people will take advantage of the empty building and often throw outdoor parties without city permission. Shadier people may also take the opportunity participate in clandestine dealings while the area is empty.

Points of interest

There are six original Stonebridge houses left in the city, with a few located in the Festival Strip, and the others in the Bridge Front district. Most of the original buildings were destroyed during the Fractioning, or fell into disrepair. These six are no longer used as residential houses, and have become tourist stops or governmental buildings.
The Mounted Tempest is a famous ride attraction in Stonebridge. It is a circular structure with different wooden mounts. Riders choose a mount and slowly the base of the ride will rotate, while the mount simultaneously rises and falls, simulating flight. This ride is maintained to be in perfect condition, making it available throughout the entire year.
Hardy Times is a large tavern found in the Festival Strip that is quite popular, especially during festivals. It is a three-floor tavern with a large outdoor sitting area. On the first floor there is a round stage in the middle of the room for bands to play, as well as three fireplaces on the three walls aside from the bar. There are not a lot of places to sit, as the floor is to be used for dancing, but there are a few seats and tables, mostly for tired folk who just need a quick break, which is what often. The second floor houses the kitchen and another bar, with a few seats and tables that line the walls, as the majority of the floor looks down onto the main floor, allowing people to sit and watch the performers from a comfortable seat. The third floor is the seating area, where tables of various sizes and colours fill the room.
