When is WoW’s 19th Anniversary event?

World of Warcraft grows older each year. While we get a birthday cake and a ton of presents to unwrap to celebrate the fact we’re aging, Blizzard celebrates WoW’s birthday with an elaborate event, rewarding players with limited-time-only rewards. But when exactly will WoW’s 19th Anniversary hit the live servers?

This year, WoW is celebrating its 19th anniversary. Although this year doesn’t mark two full decades of the game, it doesn’t have to mean the celebration will be any less epic. Typically, the event takes place in Caverns of Time in Tanaris and it includes unique events like Khadgar-ball Soccer and NPCs depicting iconic WoW players like Leeroy Jenkins.

This year, Blizzard has special treats for us. Here’s when you can expect WoW’s 19th Anniversary event.

When is WoW’s 19th Anniversary?

WoW’s 19th Anniversary will run from Nov. 16 to Dec. 7, meaning players will have three weeks to celebrate the game’s birthday.

Players who log in to WoW starting on Nov. 16 will gain an achievement that shows they participated in the celebration and an anniversary gift as well.
