World of Warcraft - Love is in the Air event guide

Love is in the Air is a classic World of Warcraft event - it runs this year for a limited time, from February 3 until February 17, 2025. That means it’s already started, and you’ve got plenty of time to try and farm new mounts, minions, clothing options, and much more. There have also been some changes from last year - perhaps one of the best is that the Love Tokens - the currency for this event - are now Warbound! So you can transfer them around between characters, to make it easier to get rewards.

In previous years, you could unlock the Swift Lovebird, but there are other mounts and minions you can get this year. The Swift Lovebird still exists, but you’ll likely have to purchase it in the Auction House.

What’s new in Love is in the Air in World of Warcraft?

As we already said, one of the biggest changes to Love is in the Air in World of Warcraft is that Love Tokens are now Warbound. If your gear isn’t so great, the gear from the holiday dungeon might be an upgrade to you - Holiday Dungeon gear is ilevel 471.

In addition, the holiday dungeon, Crown Chemical Co., features a brand-new mount you can try and chase - Love Witch’s Sweeper. It’s similar to the mount that’s available in the current Trade offerings but with a different color palette. There’s also some new content you can purchase from the various vendors at the “Gala of Gifts” - the hub for this event.

If you call Dornogal home, or anywhere in Khaz Algar, you can easily get to the Gala of Gifts area! There’s a huge, love-themed portal across from the inn in Dornogal - that makes it simple to get there, regardless of the faction to make the Love is in the Air event easy to access for all World of Warcraft players.

Quest Chain for Love is in the Air in World of Warcraft

You have one or two introductory quests for Love is in the Air in World of Warcraft - which starts by speaking to a Commoner in Orgrimmar/Stormwind. They’ll send you to the Gala of Gifts area, and you’ll receive another quest to speak to all the important NPCs. Once you’ve done that, you can pick up I Smell Trouble from either Inspector Snip Snagglebolt or Detective Snap Snagglebolt - depending on the faction.

This begins a series of five easy quests in World of Warcraft, built around Love is in the Air. This ultimately leads you to do the Crown Chemical Co. battle, found in your dungeon queue. It’s worth it to complete all these quests, because it secures you 130 Love Tokens, making it easier to buy the new mount/minion.

I Smell Trouble: Use O.D.I.E.’s remote control to sniff out clues in various locations of the city. Use the remote control item and let the little robot lead you to the clues in each area. The locations appear to differ for other players.
An Unwelcome Gift: Use O.D.I.E. to find Lovely Revelers and interact with them. If you see a yellow bubble next to the text, you have to fight them. Defeat 8 Crown Chemical Co. members to move on.
Raising a Stink: Head to Shadowfang Keep’s entrance - take the portal in Orgrimmar to the Ruins of Lordaeron to make it faster. Turn in when you arrive.
Crushing the Crown: Use Artisanal Bon-Bombs to destroy Crown Supplies and kill Crown Members south of here in Pyrewood Village. Do this until you fill the meter. Shouldn’t take more than a few minutes. Fly back and turn in the quest nearby.
The Stench of Revenge: Queue up for the holiday dungeon and win.

There are also other small quests/daily quests that you can take part in, but these are the primary quest that gets you the most when it comes to easy Love Tokens.
