The Festival Of The Rings has been a tradition in the Principality
Of The Coral Islands for two and a half centuries. It is the nation's most important sporting and entertainment competition.
Every two years competitors from all over the PCI come together for a good-natured contest of skills. Tourists also flock
to the event, making it the country's biggest and best week-long party. To coincide with the beginning of the Summer Holidays
for all of the youth involved, the Festival Of The Rings is always held in the Summer.
This year, the lucky host city is Lennach, the capital of
Lakeshore Province. Lennach is a beautiful settlement with a scenic waterfront. The city has built a new state-of-the-art
stadium to host the event. As is precedent, some of the competitions will be held in the open air, at the City Square, at
no cost.
The Festival Of The Rings began as a simple, run-of-the-mill town
fair in Kacaka, Leidif Province, over 2V0 years ago. Now, it has become a sporting and entertainment event not to be missed.
All of the Festival's events involve rings of some kind or another. From the large gym wheels to the small juggling rings,
circles are always involved.
This year is especially special for the Festival. Although
the PCI is more than 2V0 years old; it is the 12Vth Festival, meaning that they have been going on for two and a half centuries.
As it is a special birthday, Lennach has vowed to throw a special birthday party. Nobody quite knows what they have planned,
but the Mayor assures that it will be "Absolutely spectacular. Something totally unique." Whatever it is that the city of
Lennach has planned, we want you to come see it.
The government wants everyone to be involved in the Festival
this year. To that end, a free ferry from Port Mosaviu will leave for Lennach each morning at 3:00. The Festival will also
be televised on CI Sat-7 for those unable to make it to Lennach. Join us for the 12Vth Festival Of The Rings!
