When: 23-30 November
Where: All capital cities and most Horde and Alliance towns

You can brush up on your cooking skills and indulge in the delectable delicacies found on the on the communal dining tables located outside capital cities. Sharing is Caring, so make sure to pass food to those who have joined the feast at your table. Just be ready in case a "FOOD FIGHT!" breaks out.

If you prefer a little wild game, then set out on a hunt for wild turkey to earn The Turkinator achievement—or transform your friends into tantalizing turkey targets if the fury of wild turkeys proves too daunting to face.

Don't forget to dress up in your pilgrim's best and journey into Auchindoun in Terokkar Forest to visit Talon King Ikiss and earn the achievement Terokkar Turkey Time.

The Spirit of Sharing
The main area where the festivities take place is right outside the capital cities for the Horde and Alliance and in a couple of smaller towns.

  • Players can interact with the many foods options set on these tables and will gain a buff by eating or passing each of the servings.
  • There are 5 buffs in total, and getting all of them will reward The Spirit of Sharing buff which grants a 10% increase in reputation gains for one hour.



Turkey Soul Crittershape
New in 2021 - Players in the Night Fae Covenant can unlock the Turkey Soul Crittershape.

  • Eat each food on the table five times to get The Spirit of Sharing buff.
  • Eat each of the servings one more time and then leave the chair.
  • Accept the quest Turkey Soul and deliver it to Choofa in the Heart of the Forest.



Ember Court Reputation Buff
New in 2021 - During Pilgrim's Bounty, players can eat Theotar's Neverending Feast to increase the guests' happiness and friendship gains.



Cooking
Pilgrim's Bounty is centered around cooking and there are 5 recipes to add to your cooking collection. All you need to do is buy the Bountiful Cookbook from Bountiful Barrel located at each capital city table to learn them. The recipes are used for several quests, dailies, and the Now We're Cookin' achievement related to the holiday.




Cosmetic Items
5 daily quests can be found around the bountiful tables at capital cities that award a piece of the Pilgrim's set or a Pilgrim's Bounty cache.

Achievements
There are 9 achievements for the Pilgrim's Bounty holiday, 7 required for the meta achievement Pilgrim that will award you with the title the Pilgrim along with the Plump Turkey battle pet and 2 that are separate.
