What time it opens
The game calendar sets each opening at 04:00 on a Monday, and the Faire stays for 168 hours. That's calendar time, and your own realm group's clock decides the exact hour. Open the in-game Calendar to see it in your time.
Good to know
- Blizzard can move these dates with a hotfix. The calendar in the game always wins.
- Plan ahead if you want to make the trip once. Horde players have a far easier time in the Mulgore weeks, and Alliance players in the Elwynn weeks. See how to get to the Faire.
