seems like even though you obtain the quest before the faire opens, you must wait for them to set it up to hand it in.

The Darkmoon Faire's usual schedule has it arriving on site on the first Friday of the month. For the weekend, the carnies will be seen setting up the midway, and the Faire will actually start early on the following Monday.

Been waiting for 2 days for faire to open, Level 70 friend of mine says it takes about 3-4 days to open after you obtain the quest, so just be patient.

If you go to Goldshire at 41,68, you will see a bunch of purple caravans and some folks working on building the carnival site.

They keep saying that it'll open soon and to come back later. I guess we need to keep our tickets!

I have a mod called 'Quest Level' or something, but the main purpose is to display the level you have to be to do the quest easily or something like that. Well, I got this quest in the city to the north in Durotar and it says it's level 60. :S

(1) You get almost no xp
(2) You get five tickits which can be handed in for low lvl items EXAMPLE: Darkmoon Flower,or Prize box(contains one green item)
(3) Darkmoon callers are located in IronForge and Orgimar
(4) Carnival sites are located in Goldshire and Mulgore

BTW Rumors of a permenant site are begining to rise (May contain rides and other new interactive objects such as a working zoo!)

Will keep you posted ^_^

It's here again! Concerning the questions about the quest being red, the thing is that the level suggestion is 60 so that everyone could see the exclamation mark on the quest-givers head. Otherwise some people could miss it out.

If you want the quest, go to Ironforge, he patrols the area in front of the bank and AH. Just wait until you see a dwarf with a exclamation mark!

Darkmoon Faire is in Elwynn Forest just south of Goldshire.

Does anyone know where the IF quest is repeatable and who the questgiver is?

I've done this once and got 5 tickets but I'd really like to get 50 so I can get a Darkmoon Storage Box (14 slot container) - sweeeeeeet!

I'm too high level to qualify for the quests that originate at the faire though.

I suspect the IF quest is just a teaser to get newbie dwarfs and gnomes down to Elwynn to check it out though...

The Darkmoon Faire alternates between Goldshire in Elwynn Forest and a horde area. If the carnies say it is coming soon, then it will be where they are within a few days.

The Faire is South of Goldshire, you CANT miss it. Gelvis Grimgate is in the Faire as well. He is by a purple tent. Look for the big Ogre in front of the tent.

Also the quest says "redeem for 10 tickets" but it only gives you 5.

Gelvas Grimgate is in the Elwynn Forest just south of Goldshire.
The trick for me was to get there from Dun Morogh. I could not just take the Deeprun Tram from Ironforge, because if I did the gate to get out of Stormwind was locked.
Instead I had to teleport from the mystic area in Ironforge. Then i came to the Moonglade. From there i could go to Stormwind via The Great Moonlight. This way the gate was open and I could easily go down and meet Gelvas Grimgate.
