Fake Date
by decce6
With Fake Date, the system date seen by the game can be set to another value, letting players test festival content without changing their clock.
What it does
The mod counterfeits the system date for the Minecraft process, so festival content can be tested or experienced without changing the date at system level. It can also be used to disable festival content in other mods by presenting a non-festival date.
The date is only faked on the side where the mod is installed. Client and server are not strictly tied together, so the mod can sit on a client without being present on a dedicated server, or the other way round. Released under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 only, it is open source. Files cover 1.18.2 – 26.3 across Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt.

What the author says
This mod does not have strict side requirements. This means it is possible to install the mod on the client-side without it being present on the dedicated server, and vice versa. The date will only be faked for the side(s) with the mod installed.
