I would hazard a guess that Wyrom's hinting of a May event would be a Coraesine Field related thing... looking forward to it!

>>I'm just not sure how it can work anywhere near what is was as a free festival, so I'm changing my guess to Foehn's Promise (credit to Durakar).
If the "east of the DragonSpine" clue is correct, it is not the Foehn's Promise. For the Promise runs (the original GS3 I led and the reconstructed GS4 one in 2005 that occurred a few months after I 'retired'), the airship docked in the West.
The only rationale for the "east" clue would be that the airship hails from Ta'Loenthra. Not that the token auction event ever ran in the east, unless there was a secret run between 2006 and 2017!
I'm not sure how the Promise could work as a completely "free" event, honestly, unless the old token auction is changed to a regular silvers auction open fully to the public, and therefore not every attendee is guaranteed a unique item. And the rest of the ship is decked out with regular event-style shopping/raffles/games.
The other possibility is repurposing Feywrot Mire? It's in the East, and if I understand peoples' descriptions of EG correctly, it remained a hard ticketed event (closed to non ticket holders) through its last run in 2016 so that matches the "exclusive" and "completely transformed" clues. It's got digging, games, and a big area for shops to be reworked for a different season. (What DO the denizens of Feywrot do the other 11 months of the year? It's not Halloween all the time!)
I'll be happy regardless of whether it's Coraesine, Feywrot or whatever - I haven't seen them!

I took it to be completely free, being as the pay event schedule was released as every other month (Feb - DR Dig/Sewer, April - ?, June - DR Arena/Sewer, Aug - ?, Oct - EG, Dec - DR new stuff).
So I'd assume April and August to consist of Delirium and unlikely more Duskruins or Summit so maybe a renovated Droughtman?). If it is Coraseine, I'd have kept it pay for max/best approvals and moved it to one of those empty slots (April instead of May pushing RNG Delirium to August) and make Briarmoon a free fest (as hinted at last year) for May.
I would have guessed Briarmoon as the free fest, except for the highend and East clues!

<<The elves secretly rescued the Wavedancer from its watery grave and are going to turn it into a museum and theme park just outside of Ta'Vaalor.
Ha! That's what all of our sea-diving was about, helping the elves pull the Wavedancer back up! We just had to clear out all the treasure/junk for them!

>>What about the Ilyan cloud airship. What was that event?
The Cloud was the first elven airship to ever visit the West. It's first run was January 1999 and it delivered the first-ever instruments. We docked in the Landing, if I recall. It was a free event, open to all, similar to the Juggernaut and Spitfire.
So no, does not qualify as "East"...
I didn't even catch the "May" timeframe also being a clue that it's likely not to be a pay event.
Can't remember where the Ilyan Cloud was ... I know my old GS3 char has one of the charms, though, on her pin sash.
What else is there? Dhu Gillywack? Though I wouldn't have termed Dhu Gillywack or Wavedancer as 'exclusive' unless you counted those really high end state rooms that wree limited for each run of Wavedancer that included merchant time.

>> Probably, and I bet it also introduces a new currency.
It wouldn't be a proper event without a new currency! :p
Maybe we'll get actual 'clams' this time (I thought the sea shells at the last event should have been called clams).

Due to the volatile atmosphere, random bolts of lightning can intermittently be seen streaking through the skyline.

>Wavedancer is at the bottom of the Abandoned Waters and the Juggernaut was destroyed beyond the Ebon Gate in 5105.
We can rebuild them. We have the technology. We can make them better than they were. Better, stronger, faster.
