Soft Lock Fix

I was playing Stardew today and used a warp totem to get to the beach on the day of the Spirit's Eve Festival, which starts at 10:00 PM. And when I started to walk back to my farm the game stopped me and said I had to wait to go into pelican town until the festival had started. So I was stuck on the beach with no way to get back to my farm without waiting through the whole day. So maybe when you try to enter pelican town a prompt could pop up that says "You can't enter this area until the festival starts. But would you like to head to your farm?" or something like that. I know it's a nitpick but it was an inconvenience that I wouldn't want a new player to experience and be deterred from playing a game that I love so very much.

Just wait until it starts???
So if you have the habit to go to the beach first thing in the morning, you're there at 7, you would have to wait almost 10 real live minutes... That's a really boring solution.

Restarting the day might work, but is annoying if you already did your chores.

I like the idea of being able to warp past it it you're locked on the beach otherwise.
