After four and a half weeks The Bell Tree Fair 2020 has reached an end. The TBT Fair 2020 was our largest and most popular event in the forum’s history, drawing 510 participants between August 16th – September 17th 2020 across our fourteen events and four contests. This was our most popular event since the TBT Fair 2014, which drew 414 participants.
Today we will be providing you with the answers to all of the questions you have been asking us for the past several days! We will also be announcing the winners of all of our contests and events so settle in for a long read and keep your fingers crossed that you and your friends’ names appear on one of our lists below!
But first, before we dive into all that, we want to say a big thank you to everyone who participated in the TBT Fair 2020 and helped to make this an enjoyable and safe place to spend the summer. If there were no participants then there would be no Fair, so thank you for choosing to spend your summer with us! We hope our warm and cosy slumber party theme helped to take your mind off the chaos that 2020 has brought and has given you the opportunity to make new online friends that you will continue to keep in touch with even now that the event has closed.
Now, onto what you really came here to see…
Final Collectible and Ticket Distribution, Restocks, and Fair Shop Closure
The animated shooting star, rainbow fragment, and trophy collectibles will be going out alongside the contest winner and staff favourite ticket distribution on Saturday 19th September 2020 at 12pm Fair Time. There will also be one final collectible restock at this time so if you were not able to get what you wanted on Tuesday then hope is not lost!
The Bell Tree Fair Shop will be closing on Tuesday 22nd September 2020 at 6pm Fair Time. After this point there will be no further opportunity to spend your tickets. Tickets do not carry over into future events so any that are not spent will be considered lost. Do make sure you have finished checking out all shop purchases by this time. Also please note that the Fair boards will no longer be accessible after this time.
New One-Ticket Raffles
Don't have enough tickets left to buy any more prizes? No problem! Any leftover tickets you have can be entered into one of our two new raffles. Both will cost one ticket to enter.
Raffle #1: Animated Shooting Star Collectible
Did you miss out on achieving a staff favourite in one of our events? Then you'll want to join this raffle! For one ticket per entry, you will have one last chance to earn yourself an animated shooting star collectible! We will be awarding only one of these so cross your fingers for good luck! Note that if you have already earned an animated shooting star collectible in one of our events then you are not eligible to win this raffle.
Raffle #2: Star Fragment Collectibles
The plushie collectibles stole everyone's hearts in this event. Can you blame them? They're adorable! You may have missed out on claiming a star fragment collectible due to being drawn by our soft and fluffy friends, but don't fret because it wasn't your last chance! Here is your opportunity to earn yourself a magical star fragment collectible. Two of each of the above coloured star fragment are up for grabs to twelve lucky winners in this raffle! If your name is drawn the colour you receive will be random. Who will be the lucky four to walk away with the pink and purple star fragments?
The winners for these two raffles, as well as three that were already on-going, will be drawn on Tuesday 22nd September 2020 at 6pm Fair Time. The winners will be announced the same evening.
Counting Sheep Winner
Over the past month fourteen wooly contenders clashed horns in order to determine which of them was worthy of becoming the next TBT villager collectible. One sheep battled her way through four head to head battles to be crowned queen, narrowly winning out against Étoile in the final round. The Vesta collectible is now available to buy in the Shop for 180 bells. If you intend to buy a Vesta collectible to commemorate her victory then be quick, because she will disappear from the shop on Wednesday 30th September 2020.
Addresses for Physical Prizes
If you purchased a physical prize from the TBT Fair Shop then you will be contacted sometime soon by Jeremy with a form to submit your address. PO boxes will be accepted for the mail box prize pack and sticker packs.
