From Kaitheel on the EQ2 Forums:

Heroes’ Festival
to be activated on live servers on 11/27/12 (Tuesday) *after game update on 11/26/12 (Monday)
to be deactivated on all servers on 12/11/12 (Tuesday) @ 11:59pmFrostfell
to be activated on test server on 12/10/12 (Monday)
to be activated on live servers with a server update on 12/13/12 (Thursday)
to be deactivated on all servers with a server update on 1/10/13 (Thursday)
Swear to christ if a gremlin and Santa had a love child, that god damn thing would be it.
