When is the Wintersday festival starting?


Recommended Posts

If it released Tuesday and ran for the typical three weeks then it would end on NYE, while it normally runs into the next year. If it releases on the 17th that only gives it a week before Christmas which would be shorter than normal. It's just a consequence of how the calendar falls this year. I'm pulling for the 17th bc I can play a lot more after Christmas than before :p

Updates are always on a Tuesday and in previous years the earliest it's started is the 10th and the latest is the 16th. So either next Tuesday (10th) or a week later on the 17th. The end date is a lot harder to predict, because it's previously been as early as the 2nd, and as late as the 21st January.

 

(I'm hoping for an early start and/or late finish. If it started on the 17th and ended on the 2nd I'd only have 4 or 5 evenings I could play it at all, which is going to make it difficult to get much done.)

This should have been tomorrow, if you look back at the last 3 years it started on a Tuesday the 2nd week in December: https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Wintersday

My guess maybe they are adding another new dungeon or making a new course for the Skyscale. If it does start December 17th I hope it last until January 7th. To me this is my favorite event all year I get dressed up as Santa to in game :D I can do the events over and over and never get tired it just puts me more in the Xmas mood and seeing DR all nicely decorated and the wonderful Wintersday music ^_^

I hope it goes on until the 7th January, or even later. Wintersday is one of my favourite GW2 festivals and I'd hate to miss most of it, but I couldn't change my plans even if I wanted to. If it starts on the 17th and ends before the 5th January I'll have to pick a couple of the most important things to focus on and skip everything else. :(

Wiki shows this, but I don't know how official that is at this early date....
