How to attend feasts?

[[RUS] Election Hacker]

It gave me a message saying I was invited to a feast but when I arrived at the city now what? How do I go in the feast?

There should be an option to "Go to the castle - Attend feast" or something along that lines. If there's no option like that then you've missed the feast and will have to wait until another comes along. Chances are if there's a Tournament going on then usually there's a feast going on as well.

^^^What he said.

Feasts are kinda weird though, you can show up too early as well as too late. They typically only last a few days at most so unless you happen to be in the neighbourhood, it's not always so easy to make it.

They are useful for improving relationships and finding a spouse to marry though. You can usually pick up a few quests as well, if you want.

If you aren't in the faction and you haven't earned enough reknown, they might not let you in.

The best feasts take place in cities with a tournament. You can win the tournament, talk to the dinner guests, then wait a few hours and do it all over again.

You have to have a reputation/renown high enough too

I have the same problem. I always get invited to feasts but they are never happening. Is this a known bug or does the feast take place a week later?

It is really annoying either way.

When you receive the invitation, you need to get to the town where the feast is taking place as quickly as you can. Feasts are supposed to last several days, but if anything happens that requires the lords' attention (like war being declared, or the start of a new military campaign) the feast will end early, sometimes almost as soon as it has begun. They are very easy to miss, especially if you have to travel a long way to get there.

Eventually you will stumble across a feast by accident. If you ever pass by a town or castle and you see a whole bunch of lords in there, it probably means there is a feast taking place. You don't need an invitation; as long as you are not at war with that faction, you can attend, even if you are not one of their vassals.

I have and there is no feast. I can be right beside and no feast. I have followed the guy who throws the feast when we are in the middle of the war. When he gets there, still no feast.

I don't know what to tell you. Are you using any mods? I had a lot of trouble finding the feasts at first, but eventually I figured out the pattern. You could try talking to the bards in the taverns and ask them where the feasts are being held.

[Damedius]

No mods and when I ask the guy in the inn, he says no feast is taking place. Or if there is one taking place it isn't the one I am invited to.
