I think I'm going to have to go with Winter Veil. I had just gotten the game at the end of 2004 and the fact that they were trying to emulate real holidays with an Azeroth spin made the game that much cooler at the time.Second would probably be Children's' Week, because Speedy and Whiskers are two of the coolest pets ever. Plus you get to run around with a kid following you for a week. It's much different now what with Argent Squires and multiple orphans, but still, I liked the concept of it.

My favorite is definitely Hallow's End. Halloween is an awesome holiday that lasts far too short in real life (one night is not enough for costumes and creepy epicness), so Hallow's End makes me really happy :-P
Hallow's End is my favorite mostly for the horseman's voice and dialog, have his raising minions speach macroed to my army of the dead
My favorite holiday is Winter Veil. Who doesn't love getting presents? I love it when everyone is out in front of the bank in Ironforge playing with their new toys! Greatfather Winter, this year I want a sleek new mount! Oh please please please!
It's so hard to pick just one Holiday! I love them all but Hallow's End and Winter Veil are the best of all, Hallow's End is rockin this year with the new Feline Familiar though, love it!
Brewfest ftw! Drunk anything is always a plus,
My favorite holiday is probably Winter's Veil because I just love the feeling of opening a present in real life and in game.
By sheer coincidence,it's Hallow's End. It was my first in-game holiday (5 long years ago) and you never forget your first! :)
Definitely Brewfest. I started playing shortly prior to the start of Brewfest several years ago, and I found myself spending hours each day doing Brewfest stuff. I made a horde character just to see how it was different on the Horde side. Every year I look forward to Brewfest.
Hallow's End is my favorit, because it lets us G.N.E.R.D. Rage and still have fun ^_^Cheers,Hat
I love Winter Veil and Midsummer Festival mainly because it means fun. In winter you have all sorts of holidays in real life and you get presents for most of them. In the summer, you can hang out with friends, host birthday parties for people and yourself if you have a summer birthday like me. Winter Veil and Midsummer Festival just seem to reflect the fun that I have during those two seasons.
Hallow's End is my favorite Azeroth holiday because I was born on Halloween Day. Growing up as a child, no one ever came to my birthday parties because everyone would be off trick-or-treating. In game, we all go trick-or-treating and get more than just candy, we get loot that far outlasts the festivities. As the jack-o-lantern pumpkins, masks, and flickering candles adorn Stormwind during the haunted festivities, a part of me feels my birthday is also being celebrated. It becomes the time of year I might just get lucky. When Hallow's End comes to Azeroth, I partake in volunteer firefighting in Westfall to protect the town's precious roofs with their modest water supply. After I heroically rescue the town from a doom of flames, I conquer the headless horseman in a death match where he will die at the hand of my Mind Blast and spamming of Mind Spike until his third resurrection becomes futile. This year, by the Scorpio skin of my teeth, I miraculously looted the Horseman's Signet after bringing him down to his haggard knees. Hallow's End gives us all the opportunity to dress in costume, wear and collect rare class masks, benefit from the Masquerade achievement, and fly around our brooms with our companion kitties (with their matching flying broomsticks, pointy witch hats, and sparkling dusters). I particularly enjoy collecting magic costume wands and aiming pumpkins at rival classes. After eating a few G.N.E.R.D.S. (designed to increase our intelligence), the battleground calls to sacrifice blood for honorable kills. At the end of the day, I shine my teeth with a toothpick, get my shoes shined, and pop a Pyroblast cinnamon ball into my minty clean mount (which makes me feel "hot" - says so on the label).The common thread between Hallow's End and Brewfest is intoxication. While Brewfest encourages drunkness, Hallow's End encourages eating so much candy you puke. I like bobbing THEM apples!Bonus reach for loot card: I seduce the picker(s) of the contest winners by casting a daring wave of Mind Control. Loot card, come to Mama. That's right.This humble Loremaster has valorously earned Hallowed Be Thy Name just in time for her birthday.Good luck everyone!Lady Silveress
My favourite is Winter's Veil. Not just for the cool pressies from blizz every year, but quests are fun, lots of cool little things to change your character, and who doesnt love storming battlegrounds as a gnome in a santa costume!
Brewfest hands down... Nothing beats hearing the tank saying "who was stupid enough to put a pony keg near me on raganaros" then start puking on the boss and pull XD1 shotted it btw XD
Midsummer Fire Festival of course. Who doesn't like desecrating the Horde? Hehehe*Juggles twenty Torches*
