Event details:
The year draws to a close. The midnight hour is near. Middle-earth has witnessed many many things this last year, for good and for ill. But now we stand at a crossroads, the past behind us and the future in front, ours to take. As a wise man once said, “All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us.”
Let us bring in the New Year with celebration! Let us remember those we have left behind but be joyous for those still with us, standing by our side.
Hogmanay the Pig, with his amazing cart of fireworks, will be joining your host Ranatuor at a special venue in the Thorin’s Hall Homesteads. It’s a big night in for 2020, a fellowship of fun and a Yule moot (meeting) for anyone and everyone.
All are welcome*
There we will set off fireworks, fly kites, drink good ale, sing and dance. Music will be played. There will be some gift-giving. We will party like there is no tomorrow!

* Obviously, be polite and courteous to your fellow party goers. We want to maintain a friendly and welcoming atmosphere. Really this shouldn’t need to be said, but you just never know.
A social gathering for New Year’s Eve, organised by Ranatuor. Musicians, bands and storytellers are welcome to take the stage to delight the gathered party goers. This is a social gathering, RP is of course welcome but not required.
Just what is Hogmanay? Well, I’ve been a bit cheeky and named the Anniversary Pig pet (with a wagon of fireworks firing away in his wake) Hogmanay, a nod to the Scottish New Year celebrations.

It’s a Big Night In because, well this year New Year is going to run a little differently, we are all in. Over the last few years myself and other players have made an effort so that those not out and about celebrating have a place in LOTRO to party with new and old friends.
