How to Start Diablo 4 Midwinter Blight Christmas Event

The Midwinter Blight lets you sink your blades, magic, and skeleton harem into an army of festive monsters. If you can call skull-clad fiends festive, anyway. The Midwinter Blight Event will run from December 12 until January 2.

And to start off Midwinter Blight, you’ll need to get ready to do a little traversing.

First, head to the main city in Sanctuary, Kyovashad. Just to the left of the Waypoint will be the Midwinter Square.

This Square is where you’ll find Gileon, the event vendor. Speak with Gileon, and he’ll give you the Event Quest, ‘The Midwinter Blight’. This quest will prompt you to exchange Midwinter Materials for a Midwinter Proof.

So, to summarize:

• Kill Event Monsters to get Event Resources.
• Trade Event Resources for Midwinter Proofs.
• Use Midwinter Proofs to purchase Event Rewards from Gileon.
