The Starlight Celebration is an annual event close to the end of every calendar year. Although the overall structure remains the same, the rewards and items you can get will slightly alter.

We’ll show you what you need to do to begin the Starlight Celebration 2024 event and the rewards you can get in Final Fantasy XIV.

You can start the event by going to Old Gridania, in The Black Shroud region. For any new players wanting to start the Starlight Celebration 2024, make sure you’re playing as a character at least level 15, and then you can accept the quest.

You want to seek out Amh Garanjy, who is leading the event. You can find her at coordinates (X:10.2, Y:9.4). After speaking with her to get the quest Reach for the Stalls, you’ll be able to work your way through the Starlight Celebration and begin to earn rewards.

The entire Starlight Celebration 2024 is available from Dec. 16 to 31, concluding when 2025 rolls around. You have until this time to start the quest from Amh, exchange for your seasonal rewards, and gather everything you need before the holiday season wraps up.
