General info and comments
Originally released by CundCo in 2016 to mark the 15th Anniversary of the first publication of Carcassonne.
Contents
- 10 new Land tiles with a Festival symbol and a "15" logo set amongst some coloured starbursts
Rules
Preparation
Shuffle the 10 Festival tiles together with the Land tiles of the basic game.
This expansion has been developed for the Carcassonne basic game. All of the rules remain the same.
Placing a tile
When you draw a Land tile with the 15th Anniversary logo, you place it according to the normal rules.
Placing a meeple
You must then choose either:
- deploy one of your own meeples to the tile in the usual way; or
- return one of your own meeples[1] [2] [3] being already on the tiles [4] to your supply.[5]
The player can also choose to do neither of the above. Note that you are not allowed to place a meeple on the Festival itself.
Captured meeples (from The Tower expansion) cannot be returned to the player's supply in this way.
Scoring a feature
When you complete one or more areas (e.g. a monastery, a road etc.) by placing a Festival tile, you score them according to the normal rules.
Final scoring
There is no additional scoring at the end of the game with the Festival tiles.
Tile distribution
Total Tiles: 10

- ↑ All of your own figures are meant here, including normal and large meeples, wagon, mayor, builder, pig, barn, shepherd, phantom, abbot meeple, and ringmaster. (5/2015; updated 12/2018)
- ↑ No scoring would be applicable to the shepherd or the abbot meeple. Note that:
- If a shepherd is removed, no Herd flock into stable action is invoked and no flock scoring would take place. There is no official clarification about what happens in this case to the shepherd's flock, but it is reasonable to leave it as is on the game board. If it is shared with one or more shepherds, they would not be affected; otherwise, the flock could be claimed by a new shepherd and it would be an analogous case to the sheep found on some tiles in 1st edition minor expansions such as The River III or Halflings II.
- It would be odd to use this expansion to remove a CII abbot, as it has its own retrieval mechanism that involves scoring.
- ↑ A player cannot return another player's meeple to them. Also, a player cannot return a neutral meeple (such as the fairy or the dragon).
- ↑ As the City of Carcassonne is also considered a tile, this allows removal of a meeple from there (even if the Count is in the same space)
- ↑ If the Festival is used to remove a meeple, the fairy cannot be moved, as an action was still taken in the "Move Wood" or "Deploy a meeple" phase.
