Bardfest Nineteen approaches!

This Koaratos, the House of the Argent Aspis will be hosting the 19th Annual Bardfest!

Aspis' longstanding annual celebration of Elanthian culture and creativity runs from Koaratos 16th through 18th (7/16 – 7/17), and concludes with the finals on Koaratos 21st (7/21/14). All aspiring performers are encouraged to pre-register to ensure that you get a coveted performance slot in Elanthia’s oldest festival.

Everyone has a story to tell, a song in their hearts, and poetry behind their eyes-- Share your performance art at Bardfest this year! Argent Aspis has been proud and honored to host this event for nineteen years now, and we invite you to become a part of one of the longest-running tales in Elanthia.

Our Grand Prize will be ten million silvers, and the winner's name will be inscribed for all time on the Bardfest Trophy on display in the Wehnimer's Landing museum, alongside all our past winners.

Runners-up will receive comparable sums and in addition, Argent Aspis has commissioned our gifted artisan to craft an instrument to award to the Best New Voice! All attendees are ensured several evenings of the best entertainment Elanthia has to offer.

Bardfest pre-registration has closed! Everyone who signed up should have an email from me as of last night, to the email you provided in your registration form. Please let me know if you do not think you got it!

We will have space for a very limited number of walk-on performances each night. Anyone who missed the pre-registration window should plan to be at House Aspis between 9:45 and 10PM on performance nights to try for a walk-on spot - they are first come, first serve.

See you there!

I had a grand tale written and was working on my actions/music selection for this bardfest. But I have to work on that night. I wish all the contestants the best of luck and keep on being creative!

There's 3 nights of performances, so you can still try for a walk-on slot on a night you are available! :)

This will be kicking off in 2 nights! Put it on your calendar if it isn't already!
