Activities
💐 Floral Bloom Opening Ceremony [4:30pm]
Early arrivals to the festival are invited to participate in a brief, time-honored tradition among druids and shaman, invigorating the latest blossoms of nature and marking the full bloom of spring on Azeroth.
Obtaining the newly added [Spring Florist’s Pouch] toy is strongly recommended (but not required!) for this activity.
🐇 Bunny Hop Racing Game [5:20pm]
Hop, skip, and jump your way to victory in this lighthearted competition! By harnessing the power of branches enchanted with druidic magic, participants will find themselves temporarily shapeshifted into cute, agile bunnies and made to race along a predetermined track. The first one to cross the finish line wins!Rules
Participants will gather round and be turned into cute little bunnies via the magic of the Blossoming Branch item! From there, they will be directed to line up at the designated start flag. Racers must then toggle RP walk for their character. On the referee’s mark, they will hop along the designated track in pursuit of victory.
- Racers must remain in their bunny transformation for the entire duration of the race.
- Racers must have RP walk toggled for the entire duration of the race.
- Participants who disable RP walk at any time during the race will be disqualified.
- Racers cannot utilize any spells or items during the race (especially those that may pertain to movement such as Stealth/Prowl, Blink, or Soulshape)
- Racers must stay on the designated path and not cut corners.
Referees will be present for the duration of the activity to ensure these rules are followed.
🥚 The Great Noblegarden Egg Hunt [6:30pm]
The premiere pastime during every Noblegarden, this year promises glory and riches for anyone who can find the coveted Magnificent Painted Eggs hidden amongst the foliage of the Highlands!Rules
Participants will be called to a specific location within Thundermar town limits as designated egg placers venture into the nearby forest and hide their eggy treasures where deemed most suitable! On the mark of the host, participants will then be led out to the hunting area, and let loose - good luck to those hunting for the elusive Magnificent Painted Eggs!

💙 A Better ABK 💙
An overarching goal of this event is to continue to raise awareness for the efforts of A Better ABK and its related organizations that have formed since July 2021. As you enjoy the festivities, remember well that none of it would be possible without the hard work of dozens of WoW developers who deserve fair treatment, fair wages, and proper recognition.
If you have the money to spare, please consider donating to the fund on their Twitter page to support the workers who are so dedicated to seeking meaningful and needed changes within Blizzard Entertainment and the gaming industry as a whole.
