Get ready to experience one of the most important events of Fontaine, the Fontinalia Film Festival, in Genshin Impact Version 4.3's flagship event, "Roses and Muskets". With four unique event minigames and a trove of valuable rewards, Travellers are in for a treat!

This festival was established to honour the Lochknights who sought the Oceanids and welcomed Hydro Archon Egeria to Fontaine. It holds the same cultural weight for Fontaine as the Windblume Festival does for Mondstadt and the Lantern Rite does for Liyue.
