When is the next double XP event?

Hello. As the title states, I am curious when the next double xp event typically is scheduled for?

I was also curious if anything new has been announced.

Zeal of Zenithar should be in June or July and if I remember correctly - doing master writs yields double XP.

So if you use writs to powerlevel, then this will be the next time. Outside of that, I believe Whitestrake's is in July and then we have undaunted in September? Not 100% sure.

I don't think zeal of zenithar or undaunted have any xp bonuses. Mayhem does but I think it's only for activities in pvp zones. The next predictable general xp bonus event I think is the witches festival in the fall. It's always possible for an Explorers event to pop up though.

The next double XP event will be the Witches' Fest at the end of October.

There may be (it's likely, actually) an Explorer's event between now and then, but those don't have tickets and pop up randomly.

ZOZ does not have double XP. It drops goodie boxes for Master Writs (but only one per account per discipline per day). MYM also only has double XP for PvP kills. Undaunted is also not double XP, it's just goodie boxes for dungeons.

Tom, I think I was getting increased xp for pvp quest turnins this past mayhem, which was a change from the past. This past mayhem was also the first one in the new system without the scroll being required.

next Event would, probably, be the Zeal of Zenithar, as i can guess in June, as we stil have to have one more Q2 Event
Zentithar, though, does not provide double XP, only 2x crafting inspiration (from daily crafting writs and deconstruction)

for Q3 this could be
- Whitestrake's summer Mayhem in July (double AP, not XP)
- Undaunted Celebration in August or September (no double XP, could be double drops in final chests of dungeons/arenas)
- probably Gold Road celebration in the end of Q3 to purchase more Chapters (i don't know, likely 2x harvesting resources)

Q4 might look like
- Witches Festival (end of October)
- maybe some older DLC celebration
- New Life at the end of December

so, officially, next guaranteed 2x XP Event is (Halloween), though, normally ZOS makes one 2x XP Event each quarter,
so for Q3 this could be like a week of "Explorers Celebration" maybe in August. Event without tickets/collectibles, just 2x XP

no guarantees, only guesses.
i'd expect "unexpected" 5..7 days of 2x XP in August.
if not - then Witches is guaranteed 2x XP at the very end of October.

Hey Coops. Thank you so much for the response. I find some of your videos interesting.

I should have clarified I was referencing specifically straight XP bonus events such as the one ending soon or Jester's etc.

The events you have mentioned aren't bad but not really ideal for leveling new characters quicker.

That is about what I thought. I wasn't sure if anything new had been announced.


Hopefully they fill out the gap with some additions.
