As is custom there is the chance for everyone to open their Festival of Legends packs starting Friday the 7th of April in The Fireside Gathering Early Pack Opening from 10am PT/ 1pm ET/ 19:00 CET/ 18:00 GMT. The Fireside Gathering for Festival of Legends will run until 10am PT/ 1pm ET/ 19:00 CET/ 18:00 GMT on Monday, April 10th!
A way for you to already open your packs you have pre-ordered or gotten from Drops or Season rewards and get a look at your new collection. You are limited to packs you already have, and you cannot get extra packs with gold. That will have to wait until the actual launch.
So how does this work?
- Go to: https://firesidegatherings.com/en-us/create
- This is the official Blizzard site for creating Fireside Gatherings.
- On this page create a Fireside Gathering at your location and at a time at least 1 hour into the future.
- You can only create a Fireside Gathering for yourself, and only you can attend yours. NO public Fireside Gatherings yet still.
- Once the time for your personal Fireside Gathering arrives, just log in to your Region with the packs, and you will automatically be taken to the Fireside Gathering section that is now active.
- You can stay in the section and use the Fireside Gathering specific Brawls and games, OR if you want to open your packs, just return to your main screen and go to the Pack Opening section of the game.
- Open Packs! As many or as few as you want. Be aware though, Class or Game mode specific Packs (from Events like the Headliner's Tour or Book of Mercenaries for instance or the Standard packs from Tavern Brawl) will NOT have cards from the new expansion yet. You will need to open those on Launch Day to get the Festival of Legends Cards from them.
- If you are looking for specific cards or want to know what you might be getting, use our Festival of Legends Card List to see the details!
- When you are done you can just leave or play the game as normal.
Quote from BlizzardPre-Release Weekend – April 7-10
Finally, you’ll be able to open your Pre-Purchase packs early at a private Fireside Gathering before Festival of Legends goes live. Eligible private Pre-Release Fireside Gatherings can take place between Friday, April 7, 10:00 a.m. (PT) and Monday, April 10, at 10:00 a.m. (PT).
Head over to FiresideGatherings.com to register your private event!
The ability to create public in-person events is still disabled at this time.
Private Fireside Gatherings will:
- Be eligible to receive Nemsy Necrofizzle if they fulfill all hosting prerequisites. This means having an established Tavern. Learn more about establishing your Tavern here.
- Be eligible for the Fireside Gatherings card back.
- Allow event listing creation the same day as the event is meant to be hosted.
- Have the same Fireside Brawls as public Fireside Gatherings.
- Be visible on the website only to the Innkeeper hosting it. The Fireside Gathering itself will be visible in the game client and participants will be able to search for it and find it in the client as well.
Private Fireside Gatherings will NOT:
- Be visible on Tavern or upcoming event pages.
- Show up in the search function on the upcoming events page.
- Count towards any Tavern or Innkeeper progression. They will not count towards establishing your Tavern. You will still need to host public events in the future as part of establishing your Tavern.

254 packs
3 full art
18 Legendaries
6 Golden legendaries
How did you get 254 expansion packs? Both bundles and then over 100 more?
do they have signature cards turned off for this?
edit: I opened x160 and didnt get a single one. Not complaining, but after spending $ on both mega and standard bundles I thought I would get at least one.
I got a Signature from my golden pack.
No, Signatures drop on average once every ~180 packs. They're very hard to come by in normal packs.
If you just want Signatures, grab Signature Golden packs, where their average chances of dropping is once every ~7 packs instead.
I opened 254 packs got 3 in the gold packs
Imagine sweating so much xD And you ,,only" buy 80 packs set XD
And 12-15k gold doing quests. 80 packs - yes, it is only. Better 1 extra day in work than 150-200 hours of grinding. Beside shopping in Turkey playstore gives minus 20-30%.
Every time I try to do this for each expansion, it doesn't work, but here I am.. trying again! I guess we'll see!
Opening packs today is stupid.
Most effective way.
1) wait for Tuesday. 2) Buy innkeeper pass. 3) keep 6 daily and weekly challenges till this moment 4) Play them to get level 10th and gather prizes from new path 5) NOW: open class packs, then Red (standard) and at the end new expansion packs in this order 6) dont dust, wait for nerf patch. Now dust only nerfed Cards. Rest you can dust after expansion is out from standard (1-2 years). I do it for 2 years. I have 100% collection (last 8 expansions) and 6 other. Till the end od 2023 I will get 100%. I buy 80 packs set before expansion only. Enjoy.
With 6 quests you can usually go up to level 20 for free legendary :) that's my way of doing that as well
I never tried this one option but I will :) I added this extra. I will try 20.
Without that I had about 15-20 legends in 1-2 days after expansion premiere. Rest from the dust.
My reward is also so far 100% Diamond Cards too. Maybe I spend a little money but I can Play instead of grinding. I tried 2012-2020. Impossible.
With the addition of reverse duplicate protection, if you get a card that's on the rewards track, you can reroll your old copy into one that obeys duplicate protection. You don't need to wait until you've passed (x) levels of the tavern pass, ESPECIALLY if you're opening more than ~65 packs, enough to get all Rares naturally.
In addition, the random Epics and Legendaries on the pass obey duplicate protection. They'll always be something you don't have, if there's something you haven't owned yet.
