Activities: Honoring A HEro
Throughout history, many have given their lives to aid their comrades. Every year, members of the Horde and the Alliance set aside time to honor the memories of the fallen and to pay tribute to those whose memories are held most dear.

To show their respect, members of the Alliance light a candle at the Tomb of Uther Lightbringer in the Western Plaguelands. Members of the Horde show their respect to Grom Hellscream by leaving a bottle of spirits at the Hellscream Memorial in Ashenvale.

Throughout the festival, remembrance feasts will be held outside of Ironforge and Orgrimmar. Adventurers are invited to partake of the feasts to be strengthened for challenges to come in the future. Available foods include:
