Upcoming events?

I know we've been "told" Midyear Mayhem will be in June but I believe that was just a post on the forums? We're 7 days into June so its be cool to get some idea when and if that's still happening. I won't be on June 10th-17th so really hoping it's at the end of the month.

I can usually get some idea from the crown store showcase but it's not much help beyond saying it will be sometime this month.

My guess would be Midyear Mayhem will start within 2 weeks,so I would expect an announcement from Zos about it sometime next week.
They usually let us know 1 week in advance when events start.

If I had to bet, it'll probably start on the 24th.

They don't release the date until about a week before, mainly because if something goes wrong and they need to delay it last minute, then we get to deal with people raging about how they changed the date.

But looking at last year (it was June 25 - July 8) and the fact that they would not want to have an event and a major update at the same time (console release of Blackwood is the 8th and Console Enhanced is on the 15th) just in case there's a problem and the servers have to come down, hopefully it wouldn't happen during the event.

Events also do tend to start on Thursdays, so I'd expect either the 17th or the 24th, and the 24th seems more plausible. Not to mention the new Alliance EXP scrolls come out on the 24th, which would be very convenient if the event were to also start around then.

The one thing that puts the 17th in my mind is the fact that there's nothing scheduled in the crown store showcase for that week, but that could also mean they're putting the Starter Pack, Adept on sale again that week... or more likely that that's the week that the Iron Atro crates and Endeavors drop. And again, they're unlikely to activate Endeavors the same week as MYM.

First up is Midyear Mayhem sometime around the end of the month. Then comes the Pan-Elsweyr Celebration, an event dedicated to the Elsweyr Chapter and Dragonhold DLC. And before the end of summer, we'll get the Year One Celebration, which combines the Imperial City and Orsinium Celebrations and includes Craglorn for the first time in a major event.

Gina said, "late June" and they rarely announce stuff earlier than a week before an event happens. Tickets is in the crown store show case fpr this month so I say it's definite it will happen.

Thanks guys, lots of useful info and you've put my mind at ease- I should be back online with at least a week to spare to sort out my respec for Midyear Mayhem.... I'm gonna try a sorc healer thing. Plus it means I can put of buying the dlc until mid July 🤫

I like the double AP obviously but Midyear is my favorite event because of the social aspect.

Midyear with the range bug? No thanks.

And with the new patch devolepment cycle due to Stadia we will be lucky if they will be able to fix the bug before September.
