Two fixes are set to arrive to The Sims 4 Base Game next week.
Electronic Arts has announced a new Sims 4 Patch today, addressing January 25 game patch issues and solutions for missing items. This small update for the Base Game promises to fix the issue of Overlapping Festivals, as well as reports of missing Everyday Clutter Items.
We are working on releasing a small patch early next week to address reports of missing clutter items from the Everyday Clutter Kit & reports of overlapping festivals & floating objects.
We appreciate your patience & continued reporting—more details to follow next week.
The release date of the next Sims 4 Patch has been teased for early next week, meaning by Wednesday latest you'll have your clutter items back in your catalogue. And your festivals *hopefully* de-cluttered again.
Stay tuned to Sims Community to be the first to know when the next Sims 4 Update drops!

I had a good laugh seeing a floating piece of clay in one of my households. I had a sim put it in their inventory. Solved the issues.
The overlapping festivals is an interesting fun thing to experience. I enjoyed it. Now, if they could do it more smoothly I’d suggest they could do two festivals at once.

They also need to fix the move out option for the phone. It’s non-existant in the game.

More stuff needs to be fix other than overlapping festivals and missing clutter. The werewolves need fixing and I’m not getting any points to buy curse bite and scavenger and etc and our sims keep on over stretching and many more glitches

True, but I’m glad they are fixing what they can. Overlapping festivals and never ending coffee cups and plates in festival area’s are insane.

There’s so many great things in mods that I wish could be in the regular game
