The Midsummer Fire Festival is a seasonal event that celebrates the hottest season of the year. It starts on the (earthly) northern summer solstice and lasts about two weeks (June 21 - July 4). It is similar to the Lunar Festival and other holidays, featuring some useful buffs, food, and toys to play with.

Across Azeroth and Outland, brilliant bonfires have been lit to rekindle peoples’ spirits and ward off ancient evils. Each year, new guardians are chosen to watch over the sacred flames and ensure that they are never extinguished.

The ending of the Festival seems to have been merged with the Engineers' Explosive Extravaganza holiday:

The lengthy Midsummer Fire Festival traditionally ends with the sky itself being set alight. The goblins of Undermine have lent their considerable skill (and copious amounts of gunpowder) to the task, resulting in a tremendous fireworks show! Take up a festival mug and raise a toast to the season as the multicolored explosions dance across the sky above you!

It is an important tradition in Kalimdor a beyond, dating back centuries. Guardians of the bonfires are chosen each year to watch over the sacred flames and ensure they never go out.

New in 2023

• Lord Ahune loot is ilvl 385.
•   [Flame Keeper of the Dragon Isles] and   [Flame Warden of the Dragon Isles] achievements.
•  [Flamin' Ring of Flashiness] can be purchased for 500 .

Buffs

Touching the Ribbon Pole gives a 3 minute buff increasing earned experience by 10%. Up to 60 minutes can be stacked.

• Using Ribbon Poles causes a colorful streamer of energy to go to your hand and causes you to dance. This gives a 3-minute [Ribbon Dance] buff increasing earned experience by 10%. This buff stacks up to 20 times (60 minutes), increasing its duration by 3 minutes for every 3 seconds you keep dancing around the pole.
• When thrown into a festival fire, Burning Blossoms give you a buff [Fire Festival Fury], 3% critical strike and spell critical strike rating for sixty minutes as well as causing fire damage to attackers.
• If a bonfire has gone out, tossing a Burning Blossom in it will provide a zone-wide buff, [Bonfire's Blessing], that gives you a 30% chance to inflict (<your level> x 10) Fire damage on any melee, ranged, or spell attack. Bonfire's Blessing is capable of delivering a critical hit with 100% additional damage and is affected by bonus spell damage. This buff goes away if the opposite faction desecrates the bonfire.
• Special flame samples can be collected from the bonfires in each of the four main cities of the opposing faction. Each sample will begin a quest called "Stealing the [City]'s Flame." Upon completing each quest, everyone in the capital city will receive [Fire Festival Fortitude], a +30 stamina buff. Once all 4 have been collected and returned to a Festival representative, you receive the quest  [1-70] A Thief's Reward and are rewarded with the  [Crown of the Fire Festival].

Bonfires

See also: Alliance Bonfire, Horde Bonfire, Earthen Ring Bonfire, Midsummer Bonfire

The  Flame Wardens and  Flame Keepers at each of your own faction's bonfires offers you  [1-70] Honor the Flame.

Right-clicking a bonfire of the opposite faction offers  [1-70] Desecrate this Fire!. The act of dousing a bonfire does not pull guards (though they will aggro as normal based on range and level - Wildhammer Stronghold in Shadowmoon Valley requires a flying mount or stealth to avoid aggro), making this a fast and easy way to generate money and Burning Blossoms. Be warned that dousing the opposite faction's bonfire will flag you for PvP combat, even with War Mode off.

The bonfires of capital cities have separate quests and you cannot Honor the Flame of your own faction's Capitals.

There are a grand total of 128 bonfires across Azeroth, Outland, and Draenor: 16 Neutral, 51 Horde, 52 Alliance, and a total of 8 cities (4 for each faction).

• Alliance: $52\times 10+51\times 5+4\times 25+16\times 15=1,115$ total Burning Blossoms available without dailies
• Horde: $51\times 10+52\times 5+4\times 25+16\times 15=1,110$ total Burning Blossoms available without dailies

Trivia

When the Midsummer event started in year 2009, flags for completion of the quests in 2008 had not been reset, preventing those who had completed one-time quests in 2008 from getting those quests and gathering Burning Blossoms. Further, characters above level 70 did not have a version of the quest Striking Back.

Recent In-Game Fixes - 6/22/09 | 2009-06-22 22:59 |  Bornakk

We are in the process of applying an in-game fix that will restart all of the quests associated with the Midsummer Fire Festival event and allow players to complete them once again. If you are in the process of completing an achievement such as Extinguishing Kalimdor, this fix will reset your progress and you will need start over. This fix will require realms to be restarted.

This fix allowed anyone who had already completed any bonfire quests in 2009 before the fix was applied to gather more Blossoms that year than are usually available. Completed achievements were not revoked, but partially completed ones lost all progress. The  [1-70 Daily] Striking Back quest for 67-70 characters was extended to 67-80, once again allowing 20 Blossoms per day from daily quests.

While the initial patch was to have reset all event quests, it proved incomplete in many cases. Many reported being unable to complete the "city flames" quests for Exodar and Silvermoon despite being able to repeat those for other cities. At least one realm was not reset properly the first time, and further issues were found. A number of players have continued to have problems with the Exodar and Silvermoon city flame quests.
