Triggering the Radahn Festival

Elden Ring - portal outside Redmane Castle

You need to trigger the Radahn Festival first before you can reach Redmane Castle and fight Starscourge Radahn. If the portal in front of Redmane Castle is active, that means the Radahn Festival is about to begin.

Radahn Festival Triggers
1. Progress Ranni's questline until you speak to Blaidd about Nokron.
2. Resting at any Site of Grace in the Altus Plateau. This can be done either by going through the Ruin-Strewn Precipice or through the Grand Lift of Dectus.

Redmane Castle General Tips

First Site of Grace in Redmane Castle

Elden Ring - first Redmane Castle Site of Grace

After you get transported inside the castle using the portal by the bridge, immediately climb the stairs north and turn right to find a Site of Grace inside the room.

Use the portal to reach Radahn

Elden Ring - portal to Wailing Dunes

You have to use the portal at the beach to reach the boss fight area. Don't attempt to reach Radahn by crossing the waters, as you'll drown and die instantly if you do so!

Castle doors will unlock after the festival

Elden Ring - mist in Redmane Castle

Some doors at Redmane Castle will be locked during the festival and will only be unlocked by talking to the announcer NPC at the chapel after beating Radahn.

Enemies will also appear within the castle and the plaza will be blocked by a mist. Passing through the mist will trigger a fight against Misbegotten Warrior and Crucible Knight.

Boss Fight Strategy for Radahn

Summon NPCs to help you fight Radahn

Elden Ring - summon signs near Radahn

You can find a lot of gold summon signs within the boss arena. Allow them to draw Radahn's aggro before you close in and attack.

Avoid the gravity orbs by mounting

Elden Ring - gravity orbs

When Radahn started launching gravity orbs at you, call Torrent right before one of them hits you to make use of the summon animation's i-frame. You can then disengage and run around with Torrent until you can find an opening.

Double jump over the gravity wave

The gravity meteorites attack is usually followed by Radahn leaping then slamming the ground to create a gravity wave. You can avoid this attack while mounted by performing a double jump.

Take note that if you're too close to Radahn, you might still get hit by the blade slam.
