Switch [BUG] Game Crashes after giving gift in the Feast of the Winter Star

[Minoesjh]

So I was playing Stardew valley on my switch and my secret santa gift was for Maru. Never experienced any issues in the game (except for my cat being annoying in the doorway, still love her though). However, when I gave maru her gift, she accepted and said thank you, then, the screen went black (as if it faded to another story) and the game crashed.

I know I could skip the event, but this is one of the events I look forward to, as you can get exclusive items from this event (the tea set). I would be really nice if this problem could be fixed :)

Hey, I play on this switch too. This has happened to me before too, but there's really no way to fix it. You could try giving her a different gift or entering at a different time, but I'm pretty sure this happens sometimes with that festival.
What year are you on?

This happened to me as well on the Switch. Twice now on year 4 and year 5 with Pierre and Alex. Once I give the gift, the game crashes. Tried multiple times.

This is happening to me on Xbox. Year 3 and my gift is for Haley.

I've heard that this happens when you've met Leo but he hasn't moved to town yet. He was supposed to be your gift giver. It should be fixed in the update.
