Celebrate with a Slice During the 2026 Anniversary Jubilee Event


There’s a lot to celebrate during ESO’s anniversary event, including new and returning rewards, 100% increased XP, and cake!

The 2026 Anniversary Jubilee in-game event kicks off from April 2 at 10AM EDT and runs until April 15 at 10AM EDT. During the celebration, you can earn assorted bonus rewards as you adventure and explore Tamriel, including a passive 100% XP buff. Previously, you had to eat slices of anniversary cake to gain the buff. Now you just have to log in and play! And you can still grab a slice of this year's celebratory confection as a souvenir of Jubilee 2026!

To earn your latest festively frosted feast, complete the quest “For Cake’s Sake,” which you can acquire by either 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.

Help Mogh, then help yourself to cake!

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.  There’s a possible 4,200 Trade Bars total available to be claimed over the course of the event! As always, the Anniversary Jubilee offers a host of collectible rewards, both new and old. This includes the Dapper Daredevil outfit style and the Nokvroz’s Greatsword Replica style. Read on to learn more about how to get your hands on them.

[h2]Gift Boxes and Other Gains[/h2]
While XP gains, trade bars, and cake are exciting already, you have plenty more to look forward to and earn this celebration. During the event, you can also earn exclusive Anniversary Jubilee Gift Boxes, offering multitudes of exciting rewards, including a new outfit style and fragment for the Thorn’s Bite Withersteed morphing collectible mount. Even better, the first Gift Box you collect each day will be a Glorious Anniversary Jubilee Gift Box containing even more rewards.
