The Luau takes place on Summer 11 every year in Stardew Valley, with the main event being the community potluck soup. You need to add an ingredient to the soup, which will have a drastic effect on the outcome of the Luau, depending on what you add to it. Of course, you can cause the soup to taste bad by adding a bad ingredient as well. Here's what you should know about the Stardew Valey Luau.
The Luau potluck soup
You are required to add one ingredient to the soup, which has to be an edible item. There are five possible outcomes: great, good, neutral, bad, awful. The two positive responses will net you friendship points with the entire village, the neutral will have no impact, and the negative responses will lose you friendship points, making it very important not to mess up. You can tell what outcome you got by the Governor's response to the soup. The Luau will automatically end after the Governor tries the soup.
The potluck soup is the main event of the Luau.
The easiest item to acquire in Summer for the best response is a Sturgeon, since it can be caught almost all day during Summer from the Mountain Lake. A smoked Sturgeon of Silver or higher quality or a regular Sturgeon of Gold or higher will get you the best possible response. If you arrive at the Luau without an item, the festival shop sells a normal quality Starfruit for 3,000G, which will net you a good response.
