Kalimdor Cup Guide

Kalimdor Cup is a bonus event that revolves around Dragonriding races in Kalimdor. Kalimdor Cup does not mean you can freely dragonride in Azeroth.

Kalimdor Cup is available from August 15, 2023 through August 28, 2023, on live servers.

Kalimdor Cup is available to all players at Level 30 and above. You do not need to own Dragonflight or have Dragonriding unlocked to participate in the event.

Speak to Lord Andestrasz in Stormwind on top of the northwestern tunnel out of the Trade District if you are an Alliance player. Horde players can talk to him by the northern zeppelin tower in Orgrimmar. Alternatively, you can find him in Valdrakken near the Rostrum of Transformation.

You will not be riding your Dragon Isles Drake to complete the courses. Instead, you will receive a Riders of Azeroth drake for the races. There are 5 variations of the mounts:

• Riders of Azeroth Drake;
• Riders of Azeroth Proto-Drake;
• Riders of Azeroth Slitherdrake;
• Riders of Azeroth Velocidrake;
• Riders of Azeroth Wylderdrake.

Riders of Azeroth Badges are the main currency of the event. You earn them by completing Dragonriding races in Kalimdor and turn them in for various rewards.

You can get a total of 3 badges per type of race.

• Bronze gives 1 badge;
• Silver gives 2 badges;
• Gold gives 3 badges.

There are 3 modes, so the total of badges you can acquire per race is 9 on Gold. With a total of 16 courses, you can altogether collect up to 144 badges. A quest rewarding 10 badges will bring the total to 154.

Maztha is the event's quartermaster located in Valdrakken near the Dragonriding Trainer or in Stormwind / Orgrimmar near Lord Andestrasz (see above for the exact location).

She sells Dragonriding customization options, a cosmetic set, and a reputation insignia for Riders of Azeroth Badges.
