Solstice Celebration
From Halopedia, the Halo wiki
- "Solstice Celebration. Utgard. Governor of this fine planet extended an invitation to me and one of my Staff Sergeants. It's a formal affair. Ladies in long dresses, that sort of thing."
- — Captain Ponder
The Solstice Celebration is an annual celebration held on Harvest, based in Utgard. Citizens of Harvest celebrated the festival by gathering together, dancing, talking, and watching as Mack fired the Utgard Mass Driver.[1] The only known Solstice Celebration occurred on January 16, 2525. It was there that Staff Sergeant Avery Johnson first met Governor Nils Thune, Attorney General Rol Pedersen and Lieutenant Commander Jilan al-Cygni.[2] While the Mass Driver is firing, many civilians have to cover their ears to bear the sound.
