Festival of the Lost is a chance for Guardians to celebrate those who have fallen in battle – by defeating some spooky foes and wearing masks! This year, Festival of the Lost is starting a little later than expected, but it should still go for the usual amount of time.

Festival of the Lost 2024 start time

Destiny 2’s Festival of the Lost 2024 is expected to start at the weekly reset time on October 29, 2024. The reason this time is “expected” and not confirmed is that Bungie has yet to specify the start time, though October 29 is the last weekly reset of October, so it’s really the final opportunity to begin the event before we shift into November.

As many players have pointed out, this means the event starts a mere two days before Halloween. Previously, Bungie has given players most of October to celebrate the spooky season. The good news is that the event should still last the same duration as previous years, which is two weeks.

This year players will be fighting through Haunted Lost Sectors, defeating Headless Ones, and expanding the Book of the Forgotten. All of this will be to earn a new Shotgun, Festival masks, as well as other cosmetic items likely available in an Event Card.

With Festival of the Lost starting soon, there’s going to be an injection of new things to do in Destiny 2: Revenant. While you wait, check out our Destiny 2 Strategy Guide for more help knocking things off of your to-do list.
