Observation Seats are available by ticket purchase. Working Seat participants should bring an approved basket-style muzzle such as those from Baskerville, Jafco, Dean and Tyler, Leerburg, or custom biothane; it should stay secure and allow eating, drinking, and panting, and fabric or nylon muzzles should be avoided.

2026 Halfling Harvest Gathering

Step away from the usual routine and into a Shire-inspired afternoon filled with rolling hills in spirit, laughter, and second helpings. This family friendly gathering celebrates cozy company and rustic fare, drawing on the tales of Tolkien’s Hobbits and Shire-folk. Guests are welcome to arrive in halfling-style attire to match the festive mood. Live music sets a cheerful tone while old-world games and activities take center stage, including a maypole dance and a muffin race. Between featured moments, enjoy games that are set out such as qoits, take part in simple craft activities, or relax with tea or lemonade. Vendors will be on hand with foods, teas, and handcrafted items that fit the feel of a hobbit celebration. The day wraps up with beginner friendly group dancing to live music, inviting everyone to join the steps or at least tap along, much like a joyful birthday revel in the Shire. Bring a blanket, a basket, and a hearty appetite. Whether feasting, dancing, or soaking up the sunshine, it is a chance to enjoy good food, good company, and the simple pleasures that make gatherings feel warm and welcoming. “Hobbit” is a registered trademark of the Tolkien Estate and Middle-earth Enterprises.
