  +
[[File:Darkmoon Faire TCG.jpg|thumb|Darkmoon Faire, in Elwynn Forest, from Trading Card Game.]]
   
  +
The '''Darkmoon Faire''' is a large gathering of activities on the southern area of [[Darkmoon Island]], brought together by [[Silas Darkmoon]]. The faire opens up on the first Sunday of the month and lasts for one week.
−
; Materials required:
  
−
:1x [[Eye of Zul]]
  
   
−
The recipe taught by [[Design: Forceful Eye of Zul]], sold by [[Timothy Jones]] in [[Dalaran]], and [[Inessera]] in [[Shattrath City]] for 4 [[Dalaran Jewelcrafter's Token]]s.
 +
Prior to [[Patch 4.3.0]], the Darkmoon Faire could be found at one of three locations: Outside [[Goldshire]] in [[Elwynn Forest]], outside [[Thunder Bluff]] in [[Mulgore]], and on the outskirts of [[Shattrath City]] in [[Outland]]'s [[Terokkar Forest]].
   
  +
Attendees can perform profession-specific quests which reward [[Darkmoon Game Token]]s and [[Darkmoon Prize Ticket]]s. Game tokens can also be purchased using gold from vendors scattered throughout the faire. Completing quests associated with each sideshow game grants more tickets. Tickets can be used to purchase [[Companion|pets]], [[mount]]s, [[vanity]] items, [[heirloom]]s, and replica armor for use in [[transmogrification]]. Plus, there's a [[Sea Pony]], because [[I Was Promised a Pony]].

==Traveling to the Faire==
−
==External links==
  
  +
Visitors can reach the island using a portal from either Mulgore or Elwynn Forest. Players can leave the faire using portals in a small tent on the boardwalk on the shore of the island. There is also a mage in [[Orgrimmar]] who will teleport the player to the Mulgore site for a small cost (varies by level, it's {{cost||30|}} at level 85). Look for him on the central plateau southwest of the flight master standing under a (relatively) small banner with the faire logo. There is a corresponding mage in [[Stormwind City]] who will teleport the player to the Elwynn Forest site. There is even a pair of mages in the central park of [[Dalaran]] who will sell the player teleportation service.

===The Darkmoon Cannon===
−
{{DEFAULTSORT:Forceful Eye Of Zul}}
  
  +
Located across from the Eastern Pavilion, the [[Blastenheimer 5000 Ultra Cannon]], owned by [[Maxima Blastenheimer]], launches guests through the air towards a target sitting in the waters near the boardwalk south of the faire grounds. Getting a bullseye earns 5 points, landing close to it earns 3 points, and getting near it earns 1 point.
  +
  +
Maxima even offers [[Quest:The Humanoid Cannonball]]. Getting a bullseye also awards the [[Blastenheimer Bullseye]] achievement.
  +
  +
===Ring Toss===
  +
Located next to the Southern Pavilion, this game provides guests with 10 rings in which to toss onto the pole attached to [[Dubenko]]. [[Jessica Rogers]] runs the game, and even offers [[Quest:Target: Turtle]].
  +
  +
===Shooting Gallery===
  +
Located next to the Western Pavilion, guests are given a pellet rifle to shoot the targets that light up. Players will have 60 seconds to earn 25 points, quick shots earn twice the points as a normal shot. [[Rinling]] runs the game, and even offers [[Quest:He Shoots, He Scores!]].
  +
  +
;Notes:
  +
*You have to manually turn your body to face the target you want to shoot.
  +
*Quick shots are earned by shooting a target right after it lights up. This also awards the [[Quick Shot]] achievement.
  +
*The reload on the rifles is fast enough that unlagged players can fire twice on the same target before it deactivates and stops granting points.
  +
  +
===Tonk Challenge===
  +
Located next to the pastry tent, guests are given a steamtonk controller in which to pilot their tonks. Players will have 60 seconds to destroy 30 targets, while being attacked by enemy tonks and minizeps at the same time. [[Finlay Coolshot]] runs the game, and even offers [[Quest:Tonk Commander]].
  +
  +
===Whack-a-Gnoll===
  +
Located near the entrance, guests are given a mallet in which to whack some gnolls. Players will have 60 seconds to earn 30 points. The gnolls come in three types, normal, Hogger, and baby. Normal gnolls will give 1 point, Hogger gnolls give 3 points, and baby gnolls will knock players down. [[Mola]] runs the game, and even offers [[Quest:It's Hammer Time]].
  +
  +
==Profession Quests==
  +
The Darkmoon Faire offers a quest corresponding to each primary and secondary profession. These can only be completed once per monthly faire, and only by players who have the corresponding profession. Some quests can be completed at the faire. Some require ingredients imported from outside the faire. Completing each quest awards one [[Darkmoon Game Token]], a few [[Darkmoon Prize Ticket]]s, and 5 skill points in the associated profession!

==Other Activities==
  +

  +
{{seealso|Sayge's Fortunes}}
  +
Located between the Southern Pavilion and the Ring Toss, [[Sayge]], a wise [[gnoll]], will give guests a [[Darkmoon Faire Fortune|fortune]] after answering a couple of questions. With this fortune guests are given a buff, which will depend on the answers given. This buff lasts two hours.

  +
  +
===Test Your Strength===
  +
[[Kerri Hicks]] challenges adventurers to go forth and challenge worthy opponents and bring back trophies of your victories to show just how strong you can be. She offers the quest [[Quest:Test Your Strength]], which requires the [[Darkmoon Adventurer's Guide]] to be in the bags. Kerri gives 10 prize tickets for bringing back 250 trophies.
  +
  +
It is anticipated that players will carry the adventurer's guide with them even when the faire is not accessible to keep accumulating artifacts and trophies to turn in when the faire returns.
  +
  +
===Darkmoon Zoo Bizarre===
  +
Near the end of the faire, is the zoo, which is ran by [[Yebb Neblegear]]. The zoo contains many animals and even a petting area with penguins, bush chickens, rams, and even ponies. The rams and ponies can also be ridden. There's a special VIP waiting area in which random VIPs wait for a tour.

==Ticket Redemption==
  +
  +
The tickets earned by completing quests can be redeemed for pets, mounts, vanity items, replica armor, and heirlooms. A list of vendors and purchasable items appears in the [[Darkmoon Prize Ticket]] article.
  +
  +
==Refreshments==
  +
[[File:Darkmoon Faire desert booth.jpg|thumb|Aimee's pie, pasty, and cakes]]
  +
There's three booths found at the faire for refreshments:
  +
;The Food Stand: Run by [[Stamp Thunderhorn]], he offers decent food for hungry guests
  +
;The Drink Stand: Run by [[Sylannia]], she offers the usual beverages for thirsty guests
  +
;The Desert Stand: Run by [[Aimee]], which has traveled all the way from [[Dalaran]] in order to provided the best treats to the guests.
  +
  +
Unfortunately, the eating area and booths were built right next to the Tonk Challenge game, offering very little quiet while trying to enjoy your meal.
  +
  +
There is also a more questionable food wagon, just west of the faire in the nearby woods, that is run by [[Rona Greenteeth]]. She sells food that she has caught herself and made into dishes that may give customers pause.

*If players visit the faire all 7 days, they have the chance to earn up to 65 prize tickets (with 2 crafting professions) a month. This does not include the random artifacts from doing dungeons.
  +
**Only 63 tickets, if players have a crafting and a gathering profession. Or only 61 tickets, if 2 gathering professions.
  +
*Without getting any artifacts, it would take approximately 3 months to earn enough for one mount and about 15 months to earn enough tickets to buy both mounts and the six companion pets.

Darkmoon Faire TCG

Darkmoon Faire, in Elwynn Forest, from Trading Card Game.

The Darkmoon Faire is a large gathering of activities on the southern area of Darkmoon Island, brought together by Silas Darkmoon. The faire opens up on the first Sunday of the month and lasts for one week.

Prior to Patch 4.3.0, the Darkmoon Faire could be found at one of three locations: Outside Goldshire in Elwynn Forest, outside Thunder Bluff in Mulgore, and on the outskirts of Shattrath City in Outland's Terokkar Forest.

Attendees can perform profession-specific quests which reward Darkmoon Game Tokens and Darkmoon Prize Tickets. Game tokens can also be purchased using gold from vendors scattered throughout the faire. Completing quests associated with each sideshow game grants more tickets. Tickets can be used to purchase pets, mounts, vanity items, heirlooms, and replica armor for use in transmogrification. Plus, there's a Ability mount seahorse [Sea Pony], because Ability mount ridinghorse [I Was Promised a Pony].

Traveling to the Faire

Visitors can reach the island using a portal from either Mulgore or Elwynn Forest. Players can leave the faire using portals in a small tent on the boardwalk on the shore of the island. There is also a mage in Orgrimmar who will teleport the player to the Mulgore site for a small cost (varies by level, it's 30s at level 85). Look for him on the central plateau southwest of the flight master standing under a (relatively) small banner with the faire logo. There is a corresponding mage in Stormwind City who will teleport the player to the Elwynn Forest site. There is even a pair of mages in the central park of Dalaran who will sell the player teleportation service.

Sideshow Games

The Darkmoon Faire contains several sideshow-inspired minigames. Each minigame costs one Inv misc token darkmoon 01 [Darkmoon Game Token] to play for a fixed amount of time. Each one also has has an associated repeatable quest which can be completed over the course of multiple play sessions. Completing each quest awards one Inv misc ticket darkmoon 01 [Darkmoon Prize Ticket].

The Darkmoon Cannon

Located across from the Eastern Pavilion, the Blastenheimer 5000 Ultra Cannon, owned by Maxima Blastenheimer, launches guests through the air towards a target sitting in the waters near the boardwalk south of the faire grounds. Getting a bullseye earns 5 points, landing close to it earns 3 points, and getting near it earns 1 point.

Maxima even offers Quest:The Humanoid Cannonball. Getting a bullseye also awards the Ability hunter mastermarksman [Blastenheimer Bullseye] achievement.

Ring Toss

Located next to the Southern Pavilion, this game provides guests with 10 rings in which to toss onto the pole attached to Dubenko. Jessica Rogers runs the game, and even offers Quest:Target: Turtle.

Shooting Gallery

Located next to the Western Pavilion, guests are given a pellet rifle to shoot the targets that light up. Players will have 60 seconds to earn 25 points, quick shots earn twice the points as a normal shot. Rinling runs the game, and even offers Quest:He Shoots, He Scores!.

Notes
  • You have to manually turn your body to face the target you want to shoot.
  • Quick shots are earned by shooting a target right after it lights up. This also awards the Inv ammo bullet 01 [Quick Shot] achievement.
  • The reload on the rifles is fast enough that unlagged players can fire twice on the same target before it deactivates and stops granting points.

Tonk Challenge

Located next to the pastry tent, guests are given a steamtonk controller in which to pilot their tonks. Players will have 60 seconds to destroy 30 targets, while being attacked by enemy tonks and minizeps at the same time. Finlay Coolshot runs the game, and even offers Quest:Tonk Commander.

Located near the entrance, guests are given a mallet in which to whack some gnolls. Players will have 60 seconds to earn 30 points. The gnolls come in three types, normal, Hogger, and baby. Normal gnolls will give 1 point, Hogger gnolls give 3 points, and baby gnolls will knock players down. Mola runs the game, and even offers Quest:It's Hammer Time.

Don't forget to help Sayge out with Quest:Putting Trash to Good Use.

Test Your Strength

Kerri Hicks challenges adventurers to go forth and challenge worthy opponents and bring back trophies of your victories to show just how strong you can be. She offers the quest Quest:Test Your Strength, which requires the Inv misc book 16 [Darkmoon Adventurer's Guide] to be in the bags. Kerri gives 10 prize tickets for bringing back 250 trophies.

It is anticipated that players will carry the adventurer's guide with them even when the faire is not accessible to keep accumulating artifacts and trophies to turn in when the faire returns.

Near the end of the faire, is the zoo, which is ran by Yebb Neblegear. The zoo contains many animals and even a petting area with penguins, bush chickens, rams, and even ponies. The rams and ponies can also be ridden. There's a special VIP waiting area in which random VIPs wait for a tour.

Refreshments

Darkmoon Faire desert booth

Aimee's pie, pasty, and cakes

There's three booths found at the faire for refreshments:

The Food Stand
Run by Stamp Thunderhorn, he offers decent food for hungry guests
The Drink Stand
Run by Sylannia, she offers the usual beverages for thirsty guests
The Desert Stand
Run by Aimee, which has traveled all the way from Dalaran in order to provided the best treats to the guests.

Unfortunately, the eating area and booths were built right next to the Tonk Challenge game, offering very little quiet while trying to enjoy your meal.

There is also a more questionable food wagon, just west of the faire in the nearby woods, that is run by Rona Greenteeth. She sells food that she has caught herself and made into dishes that may give customers pause.

Notes

  • If players visit the faire all 7 days, they have the chance to earn up to 65 prize tickets (with 2 crafting professions) a month. This does not include the random artifacts from doing dungeons.
    • Only 63 tickets, if players have a crafting and a gathering profession. Or only 61 tickets, if 2 gathering professions.
  • Without getting any artifacts, it would take approximately 3 months to earn enough for one mount and about 15 months to earn enough tickets to buy both mounts and the six companion pets.
