A Festival Prize is a Present earned by being present during the Dragon Festival finale (or by exchanging Festival Tickets when the Shing Jea Boardwalk is open). Opening a prize randomly yields one of the following (from the most frequent to the rarest):

5% 50
1 Percentages are based on user-submitted drop rates (as of Dragon Festival 2009).
