“First celebrated by the dwarves, Brewfest now holds appeal among all the races of Azeroth!”
Do you love eating delicious food, drinking bountiful beverages, and riding rams around barrels of apples? Brewfest has arrived, and you can do all that and more from September 20–October 6.
When
September 20–October 6
Where
Ironforge Entrance (Alliance), Orgrimmar Entrance (Horde), Valdrakken
Currency: Brewfest Prize Tokens
Completing quests and activities on the Brewfest grounds will generally reward you with Brewfest Prize Tokens. These are used to purchase most of the items you will find on sale at Brewfest.
New in Dragonflight
Brewfest comes to Dragonflight! Strike up a conversation with the Holiday Enthusiast in Valdrakken to begin the brewfestivities. In addition to enjoying the usual fun in Ironforge and Orgimmar, new Brewfest quests can be completed throughout the Dragon Isles, including one that will have you showcasing your skills in Dragonriding.
And what's Brewfest without some stout rewards? New items can be found on the vendor—the Orange Brewfest Bulwark shield customization, and get a safe ride home with the Brew Barrel toy.
Activities
New in Dragonflight
Collect Brewfest tokens by visiting all 12 taverns (three per zone). And for those high achievers, get the "A Round on the House" achievement when you pay homage to all 12 locations.
Barreling Down
Keep your wits because you'll have to roll barrels through Valdrakken and deliver them to the Artisan's Market.
Bubbling Brews
Test your skills in Dragonriding and take to the skies above the Artisan's Market in Valdrakken to collect bubbles to fill a barrel.
Brewfest Chowdown
Slurp and burp your way through this eating contest to be crowned the Chowdown Champion. Compete with three other players in front of a panel of spectators to prove your prowess but try not to choke (literally)! The first to finish 10 plates of sausages takes home the prize. Manners optional. Speak with Etga (Horde) or Britta Steinhart (Alliance) to participate. Prize: 1 Brewfest Chowdown Champion Token.
Timed Events
Every half hour a group of alementals or hozen will show up to destroy the Brewfest grounds. Put a stop to their shenanigans for a reward once a day.
Chug ‘n Chuck Alementals
Throw nearby taster mugs at these destructive alementals to put a cork in their plans.
Shoo Pesky Hozen
Unruly hozen want to monkey around—restore order by driving away these pests.
Tip: Some of these buggers are winged, so saddle up on a flying mount to reach them!
