Tend Azeroth’s Fires—the Midsummer Fire Festival Burns Until 5 July
Sun Festival’s Painted Roc Mount
"Long ago, this elusive summer roc inspired many legends, many believing them to be descendants of phoenixes. The ancient tauren saw these majestic creatures as living manifestations of An'she's fire."
Take part in firelit revelry and celebration dedicated to the hottest season of the year. The Midsummer Fire Festival sparks a variety of activities and ignites rewards to light up Azeroth’s summer with new Midsummer Fire Festival highlights for Midnight:
- Take Flight Across Azeroth in New Aerial Quests
- Turn Up the Heat on Frost Lord Ahune for the Chance at a New Mount
- Honor the Flames of Midnight in Five New Zones
- A Plethora of New Cosmetic Items on Holiday Vendors
The Midsummer sky beckons. Take wing, follow the blossoms, and let the stories of Azeroth carry you onward.
