String things out a bit. Add witty dialogue between PCs and NPCs depending on how the event is going. * Add noise from the crowd (won't it surprise the party rogue, who has been trying to keep a low profile, when the crowd starts chanting his name! How did they find out?) * There is a long tradition in movies of important plot discussions (not to mention seductions, hirings, etc.) taking place in the midst of a duel or a competition of some kind. Try running an event where the better a PC does in a competition against a potential mate/employer/competitor/etc. the more useful information they can extract. Maybe even consider pitting the more charasmatic party members in a competition of arms/strength/skill where the test to determine success is not an attack/strenth/dex roll, but rather a gather information/charisma/diplomacy roll (both to impress the other competitors and the crowd)edit: Also, it's often nice to have a little comic relief at a festival. Nothing is quite as amusing as a mellon throwing contest....</blockquote>
