"Toon-est" Needs a New Name!
Posted by Riggy Marole on October 1, 2019 at 3:00 PM
Good Afta-noon, Toontown! As this is my first post o' the season, I think some proper introducin' is in order. Me? The name's Rigmund Q. Marole, the esteemed gentletoon of these Winding Woods. BAHAHA, just messin' with ya. Call me Riggy Marole -- and don'tcha ever forget it! To letcha' in on a bit of a secret: I'm in a bit of a pickle at the moment...
The letter "F" has fallen off of the ToonFest Toon-est Tower!
The Toon-est Tower's been in tip-top shape for years now, but maintenance-in' the top ain't so easy, y'see? To letcha' in on a little secret, back when we built the Toon-est Tower years ago, the Toon Council's safety standards weren't as thorough as they are now.
When I was makin' the iconic sign, I used only the finest Blue Glue from Sticky Lou! It's not like dere's many other options for glue in Toontown. Aside from lure, if some Toons are to be believed. HAH!
Afta' many years o' cats and dogs falling on the sign (and a bit o' rain, too), the Blue Glue on the Toon-est Sign began ta' loosen. I can't even find the ol' letter F, even after walkin' around in circles hundreds of times. If ya see it 'round here, be sure to snap a photo with it and pay ya respects with #ToonFest on the socials. I bet that Blue Tweeter Bird would enjoy it.
I'll admit, Toon-est don't got the same ring to it. I was cooking up what the bears like to call a "hare-brained scheme" when it hit me: Let's just rename the whole event! We's gotta break the bank anyhow for a shiny new sign, so let's go BIG! Plus, Toons always get confused when I say "ToonFest" and end up at an event in Pencil-vania somehow. Confusion, no more!
You heard it straight from ol' Riggy: ToonFest is getting a brand new name next year, and I need YOUR help picking it!
I've scribbled up a few ideas, but this event isn't about me -- it's about Toontown! Who's better to pick the new name than none other than the Toons o' the town? From now until October 18th, you can vote in the poll below to pick YOUR favorite new name for the event.
So, whaddya pick? It better have been my favorite, or else! HAH, just kidding. Probably.
Shortly afta' ToonFest comes to a close for the last time this year, I'll be announcin' the brand new title of next year's event. This is ToonFest's grand finale year, but don'tcha be glum! Next year, the event will be back with refurbisherments to celebrate the new name and the many years to look forward to in Toontown's future!
Remember, you'se got until October 18th at 11:59PM Toontown Time (PST) to cast ya votes. Now, let's get out there and have more fun than ever before to give ToonFest the celebratory send-off it deserves! If you spot that letter F anywhere, you know where ta' find me.

Sorry! You must log in before you can post a comment.
oh my a new name that sounds great
Wow! looks like old Riggy has a surprise in store! cant wait to see what happens.
Toontown Festival maybe?
How about ToonCon?
Very cool! Looking forward to finding out which name wins, they're all good! :-)
Toon Festival (or ToonFestival) would make it differ from the event in that other place.
I thought that was just like an easter egg the cast members put just for yesterday, like how one toonfest flippy appeared with his pie stand even though pie purchases was there the day before! Anyway, "RIP" letter F. Press F to pay respect :(
ToonFest, or Toon-est needs a new title? I hope it's a good one!
A new name? Oh boy, I hope it's good!
How about we keep the name Toonfest? It's got a good ring to it.
Festival of Toons! Bags of Gags! Balloons for Toons!
With all the Carnie bears around, it only makes sense to call it the Cartoonival!
I think a lot of us are confused as to why it even needs a new name. It's toony, it's a festival! ToonFest is perfect.
I think "ToonFest" is perfect.
We need something short and sweet with a nice ring to it, just like ToonFest
I'm excited to hear the new name!
I actually really prefer ToonFest as a name. I don't think it needs to change at all, honestly.
I found the F it was leaned up against a tree,But the Tower was to high for me to put it back. Even when I jumped on the trampoline :(
Festoonival! Keeps the original name, just switches it up a bit!
My response to the names in the poll is None of the above, but if I absolutely had to choose from the poll, it'd be Toontown Cartoonival. They're all trying waaay too hard to make a toon pun and falling flat. I like the ToonCon idea.
What a shame to change the toonfest's name :/
Long live the Cartoonival!
The Toontown Festoonival
How about “ToonTown Extravaganza” Or “Festival of Toons” or “Toon-A-Palooza”
I vote ToonCon!
I've always thought Toonfest was a perfect name for the event, but I suppose, if anything, calling it the Toontown Festoonival is still somewhat Toonfest-y. I'll be sad to see it go, honestly.
F for F, everybody. I'm sad to miss our alphabetical friend, but I hope he's doing allright in the big schoolboard in the sky. Of course, as the Host with the most, I can tell you the Toontown Festoonival (or Festival of Toons if you dont wanna give people a headache) would be the best name for all of Toontown. Waving to the audience -Host.
To be honest, Festoonival is a great idea for a new name.
I thought it was something bigger but this is cool too. I like " Toontown's Cartoonival "
That's too bad I like toonfest best, but of those id say riggy's toontown fair! Because that one can be the shortest one, just have to say tt fair! And some people said tooncon here, but in that case shouldnt the real life toonfest be changed to tooncon instead? Because thats the one that is actually a con!
Really? I think ToonFest sounds much better!
If we rename it to Crazy Carnival, then I'll be happy!
i like the Toontown festoonival, honestly
Riggy's Toontown Fair doesn't sound too bad. Reminds me of the actual Toontown.
Toonapalooza or Toon-A-Palooza something like that, though there is nothing wrong with the classic ToonFest either.
I'd say Tooncon or just plain Toonfest... I'm kind of confused why the name needs to be changed in the first place. You know, besides the fact that the F fell off the sign ;)
Eh... these names all seem kinda long and awkward. I get the feeling that people are still going to call it "ToonFest" anyway, so why change it?
Toon-est is funny
I think it shold be called fun fest
"The Grand Cartoonival" has a nice ring to it. But I am sure biased to love anything carnival themed. Aside from that I think ToonFest was actually a pretty snazzy name as it is.
My first Toonfe- I mean Toon-est, and we have to rename it? WOOT WOOT!
I'm kind of surprised that I'm the only one who thinks this, but I think Riggy's Toontown Fair is the perfect name.
You could try “Toonfollery”
1. Riggy's Funny Festival 2. Riggy's Funny Fair // Fun Fair 3. Toontown's Funny Fair // Fun Fair 4. Toontown's Funny Festival 5. Toontown's Silly Celebration Fair // Festival 6. Toontown's Tooniversary Fair // Festival A bunch of ideas I had :D
I'd prefer just keeping as Toonfest tbh, or just use ToonCon as a replacement name
I found the letter F. We should return it to its place.
I was confused at first because I thought we were only replacing the fallen letter F.
ooh cant wait to see what won!
I loved it
I think we should keep it as "Toonfest" - it's the original! It is short and sweet.
"Toonfest" is great itself. What's there not to like about it?
Cartoonival is Cool
Also dude it's literally by a tree. I found it
I think a name such as "Tooniversary" or something similar would be better fit for the celebration! It's short and sweet just like Toonfest, and you can tell what it's about just by reading it!
Just get more Blue Glue... Haha , LOL! Kidding! Rename it if you want! :D
I think it should be Riggy's Annual Toonival. Take it or leave it.
I choose Toonfest
None of these names are as good as toontown celebraTOON-y festival!
How about StickerFest? I'm trying to spread my cultural customs as I get used to Toontown more and more.
I liked ToonFest or Toon-est! the best this was my first year being able to do it so I was pretty sad when I saw that the name was going to be changed. I would probably like Riggy's Toontown Fair the best. I honor letter F. Goodbye ToonFest and my dearest F.
I honestly think ToonFest is the perfect name, and that maybe the ReplayFX ToonFest should be called ToonCon to avoid confusion
how can Riggy not find the f, It's in plain view lying on the tree next to the cannon
Personally I like the name Toonfest and I feel that it shouldn't change. Also, I found the missing letter 'F'. If you go behind the duck tunk, you'll see a cannon on top of the hill. You'll find it propped up against a tree. If you get behind the letter and look closely, you'll see the blue glue that still remains. Anyway, have a happy Toon(f)est!
Any name would be fine with me.
I'm both excited and nervous at the same time
Funny Farms
aww, but I like the old toonfest name. :(
Add a few new games as well. Mole Stomp or a Maze would be the perfect to add to the game. xD
I agree with Artsia we should call it "Toon-A-Palooza", its fun to say, isn't too wordy, and rolls of the tongue.
i will still probably call it toonfest on accident but i cant wait to see the new name
Wow, they renamed ToonFest to TOON-EST, bruh why? But yes ToonFest is the best name event.
im gonna jump on the bandwagon and say that toonfest / tooncon are my favorites
This name sounds the most toony. Toonfestlosttheletterfnowithasthisname Maybe not? Say #LC if you've meet me in the game!
Rename that to Carnival Capers & I'll be happy.
