OVERVIEWHello and welcome to the annual Jubilee of the Ages! A two week long festival held in a different nation each year that highlights the arts, cuisine, history, and cultures of the world. This premiere, multicultural event, rooted in over a century of tradition, crosses over international borders for the culmination of a beautiful display of what all of the people of Olympus have to offer.
The origin of this tradition stemming from the 1890's celebrations seen across the world dedicated to the viewing of the Perseid meteor shower. As communities continued to celebrate in coming years the practice grew to the point where each year's festivities were meant to outdo the last. The similarly timed celebrations that occurred spanning the globe led to the formal organization of an internationally endorsed event and eventually the formation of the Jubile Commission. Weathering the test of time, including the span of several large scale wars and innumerous conflicts, the festival still continues today, on a much larger scale. The Jubilee of the Ages truly embodies international cooperation and the spirit of the ancient celebrations of Apaturia, that of the 'common relationship'.
Stop by and revel in the views and wonders gathered at this year's installment of this tremendous occasion! A litany of performances and showcases will make their way across the main stage, the Proplyon. A vibrant and immersive shopping experience will be available in the Agora, featuring market stalls of vendors selling an extravagant range of merchandise. Spaces in the exhibition hall have been SOLD OUT since before last year's Jubilee was over! A host of craft food vendors will provide a multicultural menu to satisfy even the most picky or insatiable eaters, with a series of gourmet world class chefs making appearances. A long list of featured guests, speakers, and panels makes this years Jubilee the best to have ever happened! Make your way to Gate and don't miss out!
AGORAExhibition HallThis huge market takes an otherwise ordinary district and transforms it into a very busy, atmospheric and vibrant hive of lively activity throughout the duration of the Jubilee! A lineup of thousands of merchant, artisan, and craft vendors will fill up the Exhibition Hall with an extraordinary shopping experience and thousands of years of culture in the form of their wares.Sponsored Vendors

IMPORTANT OOC INFORules and ParticipationSO! While participation is not mandatory it is highly encouraged and there is a variety of ways to do so. The easiest way to participate in the fair without any hassles or responsibilities would be to simply stop by here and there with IC posts either interacting with vendors, reacting to main attractions, or simply walking about the festival!
Rules are pretty self explanatory and basically anything referenced in The Gateway would apply. For a very brief, rough listing of rules for this thread here we go:
- Don’t be a jerk.
- Don't god mod.
- Remember to separate IC antagonism from OOC.
- No OOC in the IC thread and vice versa.
- Please use correct grammar, spelling, and punctuation. Use spell check, proof read, etc.
- Thread concludes after two full weeks IRL after the IC OPs are published.
- There are two separate IC threads for lack of clutter, make sure to keep posts where they belong.
- HAVE FUN!
For a more immersive interaction with the Jubilee's proceedings there are two routes you can take! You can either signup for a highlighted time slot as one of the Featured Guests or sign up as a Sponsored Vendor. As a Sponsored Vendor all you have to do is fill out an application (below) and participate in the Agora thread as, well, a vendor! Sponsored Vendors will also get a chance in the spotlight with their stand detailed in all of the OPs on the Jubilee. Featured Guests will be required to participate in the Propylon thread; a post of the performance (or whatever it is you want to do) needs to be posted on the date you signed up for!
You can have as many Featured Guests and/or Sponsored Vendors as you like! Also, beyond Featured Guests I would like the entire Schedule to be filled up either way, even if you don't plan on posting as them (although I encourage you do!). So give me bands/speakers/performers/circus acts that you want to be listed in the non highlighted time slots, there is no limit to how many!

Many critics praise her bel canto technique, wide-ranging voice and dramatic interpretations. Her repertoire ranges from classical opera seria to the bel canto operas of Donizetti, Bellini and Rossini and further, to the works of Verdi and Puccini; and, in her early career, to the music dramas of Wagner. A multi-talented artist, Cecilia, is also a brilliant luthier and well versed in the difficult skill of playing the classical guitar. Past recitals have seen magnificent interpretations of a variety of works, including works written originally for the lute or vihuela by composers such as John Dowland and Luis de Narváez as well as music written for the harpsichord by Domenico Scarlatti or for the baroque lute by Sylvius Leopold Weiss. Her musical and dramatic talents as well as wide popularity with a large fan base has led to her being hailed as La Divina.
