The Flower Dance can be a great way to bond in Stardew Valley. Here's all you need to know about the event.

Stardew Valley is a perfect game to allow a player to unwind and just enjoy building their farm at their own pace. But that doesn't mean that the game is uneventful either. In fact, there are plenty of events that occur in Pelican Town over the course of a year.

During the spring, players can experience two holidays, the Egg Festival and the Flower Dance. While the Egg Festival is about a competitive egg hunt, the Flower Dance is more of a bonding experience between the player and their fellow townspeople. While the event doesn't take too much work while it's going on, there are some things to note about how to make attending the dance worth it.

Prior to the event, players will get a letter from Mayor Lewis informing them about the upcoming dance. In the letter, he will state that if players are able to find a partner, that they can even participate as well. The event itself is held on the 24th day of Spring from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m.

To attend, players need to head to the southwest. The clearing is just across the bridge that is south of the Wizard's tower. Once there, the event will begin and once it is over, the player will be brought back to their farm around 10 p.m. that day. If players are looking to ignore the event, they are able to. However, all homes and shops are closed on that day, since everyone else will be celebrating.

Because the event is meant to be romantic, eligible dancers consist of those who are currently single and able to be dated in the game. Unfortunately, players can't just simply arrive at the dance and pair up with someone without putting in some work prior to the event. In order to ask someone to dance, the player must have a friendship level of four hearts with said individual. There are few ways to go about increasing friendship level:

• Talking to them on a daily basis

• Giving them a gift they at least are neutral about

• Giving them two good gifts in a week

• Helping them deliver an item

• Inviting them to see a movie

• Purchasing a snack for them

• Making certain choices during cutscenes

If players have reached that friendship level with the dance partner they want, they just need to talk to them twice at the start of the dance. Friendship level will go up a full heart upon dancing with the individual. Players can even participate if they are married and can dance with someone other than their spouse, although their spouse can dance with someone else as well. Note that a player will not be able to participate in the dance in their first year.

While at the event, players can swing by Pierre and purchase different spring-themed items and recipes. The list includes:

• Seasonal Decor (350 gold)
