Hearthstone Midsummer Fire Festival 2023

This year, the in-game event features free card packs, a Hearthstone Battlegrounds skin, plus a new Illidan skin for Demon Hunter players. To access the Midsummer Fire Festival, simply launch Hearthstone and head to the quests section within the journal.

During this event, you can communicate with opponents with some unique voice lines dedicated to the Midsummer Fire Festival as well. To do this, right-click your hero and select an emote for some fireworks. For example, Garrosh says "Light the pyres!" and "A great sight!"
