A hotfix has been applied that will start Darkmoon Faire after the next realm restart or maintenance, which are currently scheduled to conclude at 11:00 AM PDT, March 11.

This will resolve the issue with the Faire running one week earlier than expected and will match the dates of the Faire to those listed on the event calender.
