The Final Fantasy XIV Moonfire Faire, a recurring summer-themed FFXIV event, is about to return on August 8, 2024 with a new Uchiwasshoi emote and Bomb balloon furnishing. People get just over two weeks to earn both, as well as pick up past event items at in-game vendors, before the event ends on August 26, 2024.
If you’re at level 30 (or hit it during the event period), head on over to Limsa Lominsa, Upper Decks (X:11.5, Y:13.8). You’ll find the NPC Mayaru Moyaru waiting for you there. (He’s a Lalafell.) Talk to him to start the quest “Fire Red, Beast Green.” This will get you a chance to take part in the Moonfire Faire.
The Uchiwasshoi emote in FFXIV makes a player’s character wave a fan with a Namazu face on it. The Namazu themselves wave similar sorts of fans in-game. (The cover of the picture book The Namazu and the Greatest Gift even shows one with a fan.) Meanwhile, the Bouncing Bomb Balloon furnishing item lets you place a decoration that involves blue, red, and yellow Bomb-shaped balloons on any tabletop in FFXIV.
Here’s how the FFXIV Moonfire Faire emote and furnishing will look:
In 2023, the Moonfire Faire event reward was Phoenix Riser armor. The 2022 run added Summer Sunset gear. A Polar Bear mount and Moonfire Mask stall furnishing showed up in 2021.
Final Fantasy XIV is available for the PS4, PS5, Xbox Series X, and PC, and the Moonfire Faire will run in FFXIV between August 8-26, 2024.
