The Founder's Festival is celebrated every other year. It's a huge, extravagant series of parties, events, and galas celebrating those who began a technological revolution, allowing inhabitants to continue life on the planet. It's only every other year due to the immense costs, however, when the Founder's Festival is going on, everything else pretty much comes to a halt. The decorative theme resembles a steampunk era, paying tribute to the days when technology began to flourish.
