Brewday Festival Returns to EverQuest II With New Content for 2025

The Brewday Festival is back in EverQuest II, bringing returning and new content to celebrate the Duke of Below.

This year, on live servers, and special rules servers Varsoon, Kael Dakkel, and Zarrakon, the full event is active. The 2025 event features holiday signs in celebration areas that you can mark. Take part in new Immeasurable Menagerie content and find the room dedicated to Brewday while you’re there. There’s a new tradeskill quest, Distill Water Runs Deep, that offers a new Essence of Fermented Revelry weapon aura. This year's festival offers eight new Merchant items, and a new tradeskill recipe book.

The Brewday Festival runs through March 26th, and there's plenty of returning content as well. Check your in-game mail for an overview and quest giver location details. There are five returning achievements, returning special event items, and collections to complete. Brewday 2025 also offers a number of returning event quests.

Most of those quests are repeatable every year, although some of them you can only have done once so if you've been playing EQ2 for a while, there's a good chance you've already done those. For those who want to check out the Bountiful Brewday gardens, you'll need a pair of the "Improved Ale Goggles" head equipment from the Ale Goggles quest (which is repeatable). Only then can you find the shrubs, which also give ingredients to craft themed recipes.

The event announcement has all of the details on the event quests, new and returning items, and activities.
