New to the game.

Whats the average attendance per event?

I know that there is variation depending upon time of year and weather.

So what is the rough estimate for a winter game?
And for spring, summer and fall?

Thank you for your time,
Looking forward to meeting you soon,

I was hoping someone with more definite numbers would post like James or Sam, however, last checked the average number to a full weekend event is about a hundred people.  In the colder months that can go as low as 70, and in the spring/summer months I'm pretty sure I've seen 120 people at least.  Festivals usually have a smaller turnout, 50-70, due to it only being a one-day affair.  My numbers could be a little off one way or the other as I'm basing this off sign-in and the number of cards handed out, and as such I have to mentally subtract the number of extra cards from people that play/have multiple characters, but it should be pretty accurate nonetheless.

I would pretty much agree with Kristen, as when I cook feast James asks me to make enough for 100 plus.  I usually post a list of the quantity of food I used, and in the stews (winter and late fall) It usually comes out to near 100# of ingredients, 35-40# of it being protein in one form or another.  The starter (veggie medley or salad) usually is around30-35#.  15 loaves of bread are  the minimum consumed, and as I bring 24, there is usually leftover,  Last feast when Luis made stir fried beef the bread was completely consumed.  These are real loaves, not the fluffy white viscous sold in stores.
