Wintersday – in July!
Unfortunately I’ve been away and missed out on the Dragon Festival this year – but it seems the Guild Wars community managers have taken pity on me – because they’ve organised a Wintersday festival – in July!

Things will be kicking off at 7pm GMT on Friday 17th July, and the fun will continue through until 7am GMT on Monday 20th July.
The Snowball Arena is being re-opened, and if you talk to a Wintersday Priest in Ascalon City, Droknar’s Forge, the Great Temple of Balthazar, Kamadan, or Lion’s Arch you’ll be transported to the arena.
Collect Candy Cane Shards to exchange for special Wintersday items, and stock up on your favourites to boost your Title Tracks:
