Indulge in delightful anarchy to earn goofy goodies during this year’s Jester’s Festival in-game event!
UPDATE MARCH 20, 2026 - Please note that the Trade Bars and Merchants section has been updated to clarify that Trade Bars must be exchanged with the Impresario merchant to acquire Jester's Festival event rewards.
Madness and Merriment
The glorious return of the beloved Jester’s Festival in-game event begins at 10AM EDT on March 25 and will continue until 10AM EDT on April 2, 2026. Throughout this celebration, you can enjoy huge increases to XP gains and reap ridiculous rewards via event quests!
To join this preposterous party, visit the event pavilions located within Ebonheart, Vulkhel Guard, or Daggerfall, and speak with one of the three jesters posing as an alliance leader. If you can’t keep your head on straight while trying to locate these event sites, open the in-game Crown Store and snag the free Jester's Festival Invitation Quest.
Let Your Inner Jester Run Wild!
After completing the introductory quest, you’ll receive the scrumptious Pie of Misrule memento reward, which can be found in the Mementos section of your Collections. As delectable as this pastry is, it’s not necessary to take advantage of the 100% XP buff, as this bonus is passively shared to all participating adventurers. Still, you’d have to be madder than a jester to refuse a bite of this tasty treat!
Procure Preposterous Prizes!
During the Jester’s Festival, you can tackle various event-specific daily quests, and for each one completed, you’ll earn a Jester's Festival Box. However, the first of these daily quests you complete each day will net you one special Stupendous Jester's Festival Box.
Each of the Jester's Festival Boxes can include the following:
- Festive Dazzlers[/*]
- Cherry Blossom Confetti[/*]
- Revelry Pies[/*]
- Festive furnishings[/*]

- NEW: A random unbound page of the One Bad Knight outfit style (pictured above)[/*]

Additionally, you can pick up the Jester’s Festival event decorations showcased above by visiting any of the three alliance capitals, Alinor, or Vivec City, and using gold to purchase these furnishings from the holiday achievement vendors Heralda Garscroft or Tildannire (Alinor only). Keep in mind, you will need to complete the Illusive Dazzler and Dazzling Entertainer achievements before these items become available in the shop.
Trade Bars and Merchants
Event Tickets are out and Trade Bars are in, and the Impresario is more than happy to accept the new currency for her event goods! Throughout the rollicking festivities, you can collect 300 Trade Bars for the first Jester’s Festival quest completed each day per account.
