When and where the Darkmoon Faire sets up in WoW Forever
The Darkmoon Faire opened for the 1st time in WoW Forever on Monday 9 November 2026, just outside Goldshire in
Elwynn Forest, for 7 days through Sunday 15 November. It comes back on 7 December 2026 at the foot of Thunder Bluff in
Mulgore, 2 days before the
raids open.
Each visit lasts 7 days and opens on the Monday after the 1st Saturday of the month. The 2 camps take turns month by month, and the in-game calendar shows the next dates and the zone.

Sayge's fortunes: the 8 buffs and the answers that give them
Sayge, the gnoll fortune teller at the fairgrounds, asks 2 questions and grants a buff by your answers. The buff lasts 2 hours, and you can take another every 4 hours. It has no effect inside WoW Forever
raids, so it pays off while questing.
| Buff | Effect | Answers |
|---|---|---|
| Damage | +10% damage | 1, then 1 |
| Resistance | +25 to all resistances | 1, then 2 |
| Armor | +10% armor | 1, then 3 |
| Spirit | +10% Spirit | 2, then 1 |
| Intellect | +10% Intellect | 2, then 2 |
| Stamina | +10% Stamina | 3, then 1 |
| Strength | +10% Strength | 3, then 2 |
| Agility | +10% Agility | 3, then 3 |
Darkmoon Prize Tickets: what to turn in and what they buy
Prize tickets come from repeatable turn-ins at the camp. Yebb Neblegear takes beast drops, while Kerri Hicks, Rinling and Chronos take blacksmithing, engineering and leatherworking goods.
| Yebb Neblegear turn-in | Items | Tickets |
|---|---|---|
| Small Furry Paws | 5 | 1 |
| Torn Bear Pelts | 5 | 4 |
| Soft Bushy Tails | 5 | 8 |
| Vibrant Plumes | 5 | 12 |
Lower turn-ins close as your Darkmoon Faire reputation rises, so check what an NPC still takes before you stock up. Gelvas Grimegate trades the tickets: the 14-slot Darkmoon Storage Box costs 50, and the Orb and the Amulet of the Darkmoon cost 1,200 each.
Darkmoon cards: 4 decks and the trinket each one gives
A Darkmoon deck takes 8 cards of 1 suit: the Ace and the 2 to the 8. Professor Thaddeus Paleo at the Faire trades a full deck for its trinket. The Aces drop from bosses in
dungeons and the open world.
| Deck | Trinket |
|---|---|
| Beasts | Darkmoon Card: Blue Dragon |
| Elementals | Darkmoon Card: Maelstrom |
| Portals | Darkmoon Card: Twisting Nether |
| Warlords | Darkmoon Card: Heroism |
The Portals Ace drops from Darkmaster Gandling in
Scholomance, and our Scholomance guide covers that dungeon.
Frog pets, the tonk consoles and the cannon
Flik, an orc boy chasing a frog around the camp, sells the Wood Frog and the Tree Frog. The Jubling comes from Morja: set down a Dark Iron Ale Mug from
Blackrock Depths near her, and her frog Jubjub starts the
quest.
2 mini-games pay no prize. The Tonk Control Consoles put you in a small steam tank, and the Blastenheimer 5000 Ultra Cannon fires you through the air over the fairground.
The Faire on a leveling character
Sayge's damage buff speeds up questing for 2 hours, so a leveling character gets the most from a stop at the camp. Our 1 to 60 leveling runs 12 hours a day with 1 booster, 10 to 14 days in all.
Our Pros also farm
gold by hand on your own character, from 100 gold up. Spots for the 9 December
raids are on our raid page.
