All FFXIV Starlight Celebration Items

The Starlight Celebration: Magicks of Eld Conjure Smiles Anew event runs from Thursday, December 15, 2022, at 12:00 AM PST until Saturday, December 31, 2022, at 6:59 AM PST. Players can get two rare items during this period, but once the event ends, they’ll be gone until the next holiday season.

‘Reindeer Fame’ Requirements
To get these rare items in FFXIV, you’ll need to finish the Reindeer Fame quest during the Starlight Celebration. You can start this quest by talking to Amh Garanjy in Old Gridania. You can find the coordinates for the quest below. Only characters level 15 and above can participate in this quest, so ensure you’re at least this high level-wise when seeking out the seasonal NPC. Remember that this NPC leaves Eorzea on December 31, 2022, at 7:59 AM PST. We suggest wrapping this quest up a day early to avoid running out of time.

Once you meet the requirements, head to Amh Garanjy and start the quest. The Starlight Celebration mission won’t take long, so don’t fret about it taking too much time. You’ll need at most 15 minutes to wrap this one up.
