ESO Anniversary Event 2026!

Celebrate ESO’s 12th Birthday with double XP, cake, and tons of bonus rewards during the 2026 Anniversary Jubilee special in-game event!

2026 Anniversary Event Start Time & End Time

The 2026 Anniversary Jubilee starts on April 2nd at 10am EDT and continues until April 15th at 10am EDT.

How To Get Started

To join the Anniversary Jubilee, you just have to log in and play! Previously, you had to eat slices of anniversary cake to gain the buff the 100% XP buff. However, if you are still interested in getting the unique cake souvenir, you need to complete the quest “For Cake’s Sake.”

You can do this by speaking with the young Khajiit chef, Apprentice Mogh, near the docks of Vulkhel Guard, Davon’s Watch, and Daggerfall, or by picking it up for free in the Quest Starters section of the in-game Crown Store. Apprentice Mogh will be in a similar location to where players found Chef Donolan in previous years.

Speak to Apprentice Mogh and he will ask you to get back the ingredients which the other rival bakers have stolen. You can agree to help him by flinging pies at Chef Zee-Ram and Chef Banelle, which will get you the following ingredients:

Chef Donolon’s Special Flour Blend
Mogh’s Essential Sugar Mix

Don’t worry, you don’t have to go far! Both of the rival bakers are in the Jubilee Barge area. After throwing the pies, check nearby crates and bags to find the two ingredients. Return the the ingredients to Apprentice Mogh to complete the introductory quest and receive your Jubilee Cake!

Earn Trade Bars With The Anniversary Cake Collectible

In addition to the XP boost, you can earn a bevy of Trade Bars by indulging in your sweet tooth during Anniversary Jubilee. Using the memento each day of the event, and interacting with the cake, rewards you with a sugary 300 Trade Bars for use in the new Gold Coast Bazaar reward store.
