Official end date of Festival tomorrow?

[OutOfOrder.3719]

The description states the Festival will end on August 14th.

 

Does this mean it will end in 4 hours at reset, or last another 24 hours until the reset tomorrow on August 15.

 

Trying to advise Guild members whether they should spend all tokens today or immediately before reset.

[RoseofGilead.8907]

It ended a few hours ago. Festivals typically end around 9am Pacific.

[OutOfOrder.3719]

Damn! Do you know if there is a vendor somewhere to redeem those Festival tokens in days lion's arch?

[RoseofGilead.8907]

There's a Festival Rewards Vendor right at Crown Pavilion Waypoint in DR, with all of the festival rewards available, as far as I could tell.

[Inculpatus cedo.9234]

Sonder the Seller is the NPC you are looking for, I'd guess.

 

Good luck.

[According to the wiki there is](https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Sonder_the_Seller "According to the wiki there is."). I haven't checked him out myself though, so don't know if those offers are always up.

Caution: just because those vendors have been there for while doesn't mean they will stay there. They may get removed now that the content is in active development. It's just like the wintersday stuff: Buy what you want now; don't assume the festival vendor will get everything you want so you can buy later (he didn't and I can't T_T).

[OutOfOrder.3719]

Yes. Told everyone to buy today, and expect it to be gone tomorrow.

 

Thanks for NPC vendor guys.

Sounder is a legacy vendor NPC, and gets left around to pick up the slack of off-season tokens. He even has Halloween junk for sale, and thats been out of season for 10 months now. Theres also a Mordrem token vendor at the Priory waypoint, related to an event that only happened once, yet hes still there incase anyone comes back and has those tokens.

[Boogiepop Void.6473]

Sounder is there to let you spend stuff, but he doesn't have everything. For example you want get the wintersday bag from him. As for the other vendors, they are left because the content hasn't been touched. But now the Pavilion content has been touched, so the vendor could have been touched too. Those NPCs are from 2 of the oldest events and precede Sounder. Sooner or later they will get "cleaned up", just like the Halloween vendors did when Halloween was being updated.

I was still doing gauntlet stuff until around 11 am Pacific. Did you notice what time it stopped?

[Alga.6498]

There's always a festive vendor at the Crown Pavilion waypoint/entrance 24/7. :)

Noon Pacific Time.

[Eloc Freidon.5692]

Its always sad that these end in the middle of the week and there aren't enough days to do a full completion of the 5 days completer.

Thanks! I guess ~~I~~ real life picked a good time (for me) to stop :)

This festival lasted 21 days, including Sa|Sun of 29-30 July, 3-4 Aug, 10-11 Aug, i.e. six weekend days.

[AtlantisPrins.2098]

I like this event but its so fast over xd but i need say the old vesion from 2014 was more fun that is what i find.

Doly race was better than now and i miss the champs underway ofc the new events is cool to play

Lets hope is faster comeback than 4 years xd

 

See u later all.

[Gaile Gray.6029]

To be sure everyone knows (because I saw some questions during the event, as well): The Festival of the Four Winds is now an [annual Tyrian festival](https://www.guildwars2.com/en/news/festival-of-the-four-winds-begins-next-week/ "annual festival"), so we'll see you in Labyrinthine Cliffs again next summer!

21 days. 4 days short of the repeated 5 day achievement. 3 for me because I completed 1 before reset.

Correct. He also does not have the old weapons with karka bonus damage that could be purchased with "Captain's Council Commendations" and Lionguard Lyns doesn't want them anymore, nor has there ever been any other NPC to accept them to my knowledge :(

It’s not meant to be done in a single year.
