Heroes of the Storm news » Lunar Festival Begins Next Week!
Excitement awaits during this year’s Lunar Festival event! Over the next few weeks, you’ll be racing to complete new special event quests that offer handsome rewards, you’ll find a few new skins and mounts in the Shop, and you may even spot a few fireworks at the end of your matches. The revelry kicks off Tuesday, January 24, lasts until February 14, and you’re invited to join in the festivities!
Complete the Rooster Race!
Each day during this year’s Lunar Festival event, you’ll receive a new quest to complete the Rooster Race. If any players on your team have not yet finished that day’s quest, there’s a chance that the Lunar Rooster will appear near your Core before the match begins. Many festive items will also be scattered around your team’s starting area. Work together with your allies to collect the required items and return them to the Rooster to advance its position. Return four items before time runs out to help your Rooster cross the finish line!

- Daily Quest: Complete the Rooster Race once.
- Reward: 200 Gold.
- Event Quest: Complete the Rooster Race 25 times during the 2017 Lunar Festival event.
- Rewards: Lunar Rooster Portrait and the Lunar Rooster Mount.
