Many summer events will come to a close this month.

The Far Seas Caravan toted their goods across the lush lands of Greater Faydark, setting up their tents on the Green Knoll for the Kelethin City Festival. Three new specialty items are available and can be purchased from Chris Weathers. The Flying Freebooters have joined the festivities and a new Aether Racing course is also available this month. The aether race and city festival run concurrently and both end at 11:59pm PDT on August 7th.

A celebration of gnomish gizmos and gadgets is in full swing at Gnomeland Security Headquarters in Steamfont Mountains. New rewards, recipes, merchant items and a quest highlight the festivities this year. Tinkerfest will conclude at 11:59pm PDT on August 8th. For those of you with far too many alts check out our Tinkerfest Quest Tracker!

The phases of the moon will reveal the mysterious grottos again later in the month and their denizens will gladly offer you some tasks to perform. Moonlight Enchantments will run from 12:01am PDT on August 20th until 11:59pm PDT on August 21st.

The Velious Transportation Event, which focuses on the reactivation of the Dragon Ring in Great Divide and the Wizard Spires in Eastern Wastes, is still underway. Many servers have already completed the rebuilding efforts in both locations. UPDATE Aug. 9: This event will be extended past GU61. The merchants will remain on all servers past the GU61 launch, but tokens will only continue to spawn while a site is incomplete.
