Summary: GuildWars released the Canthan New Year?s Festival to share with us.

Guild Wars released the Canthan New Year`s Festival to share with us.

Each year, Canthans flock to Shing Jea Monastery to prepare and partake in a great feast to honor the particular celestial animal who will watch over them during the coming year. This year?s animal, the Celestial Pig, will descend from the heavens to enjoy Cantha?s culinary delights. If satisfied with the meal, the Celestial Pig will bestow good luck upon the populace for the coming year.

The Canthan New Year?s Festival event begins at Noon PST (20:00 GMT) on Friday, February 16, 2007 and will run all weekend, ending at Noon PST (20:00 GMT) on Monday, February 19, 2007. On Sunday, February 18, the Celestial Pig will drop from the sky into Shing Jea Monastery every three hours to sample Canthan delicacies. The feast culminates in dancing, fireworks, and the showering of the populace with gifts...but only if the celestial enjoys its meal.

While the bulk of the Canthan New Year?s Festival, including the celestial feast, takes place in Shing Jea, Canthans living abroad have taken their customs with them as well. So expect Lion?s Arch and Kamadan to host smaller celebrations, complete with traditional New Year?s decorations.

But, if you want to dance the night away in your festival mask and have the chance to receive a special prize should every course of the celestial?s meal be completed to perfection, you must journey to Shing Jea Monastery for the grand finale.

In addition to the great feast, look for a variety of festival-themed quests available from some colorful new NPCs, and don?t forget to have your fortune read by the Fortune Teller wandering Shing Jea during the festival. If you?re feeling up to a trip to the race track, you won?t want to miss out on the inaugural running of the rollerbeetle races. This new PvP mini-game is sure to get your heart, and your rollerbeetle, racing.

So, mark your calendars and be sure to come help ring in the New Year, Canthan-style. You won?t want to miss this brand new Guild Wars event!

The feast determines
Our luck for all the seasons
The chefs must not fail!
