Jagex has officially announced that RuneFest will be making its long-awaited return in 2024, after being absent for four years.

This year, RuneFest will be held in Birmingham, UK. It will span over two days, which is set for September 7 to September 8, 2024, and RuneScape fans can expect to be able to purchase tickets to the event in April 2024.
