Surmirae Anladorlo is a minor Elanthian holiday that lasts for four days.

Surmirae Anladorlo is celebrated on the 201st day of the year in the first of the month of Arhat. It is the time when the days are the longest and the nights are the warmest. Surmirae Anladorlo is also known as Midsummer's Night. Surmirae Anladorlo is the time of the Great Moot, when all the Immortals are said to come together in one place. It is also said that if an invitation is granted to gather in safety on this day, that a great curse will befall anyone who violates the trust of this day. During the time of the Empire of the Seven-Pointed Star, the great families of the Throne City gathered on this night in a grand ball where all rivalries were set aside and they could socialize with their allies and keep tabs on their rivals. Since that time it has not been uncommon for socialites to choose this night to stage grand outdoors parties and masked balls.
