According to Gaile during her Gailechat and her talk page on wiki, you can get the lion mask again this year DURING THE EVENT instead of at the finale.
My question is, how and where? I can't seem to find the mean to get it.
Not that I want it for myself, as I already got one from last year. But I'm just curious and suspecting that I might've missed something here.
Anyone?
Where do you get the Lion Mask this year?

Try waiting till the Celestail Rat start visiting every few hours (ie Sunday/Monday)

If we knew it would be the my guide sticky at the top of the forum! So the short answer is no one knows.

If there's a way to get the same mask as last year, that will be the first mask that's ever been made available to people who missed it a year before. If that's the case with this Lion Mask.

And no, Gaile said specifically that they're making the Lion Mask available during the event and NOT at the finale because they think you should wear it during the event. She even went on to say how in Chinese Culture people wear the Lion Mask to celebrate the event (well not exactly every people, but you get the point), so it's logical that you get it during the event, and not at the finale.
I'm starting to think that Gaile has been "misinformed" once again.
Here's the message Gaile posted on GWO.-

If you're familiar with traditional "Chinese New Year" events you see celebrants dancing down the street with lion masks every year. Therefore, the lion hat is a good representation of the influences that bring us Canthan festivals. And again, it's not the end gift.

EDIT: Oh well, here's the link to Gaile's talk page where she gave a specific info abotu the hat.-

Unlike other festivals, the mask is something for you to acquire and enjoy during the festival.

Gaile was "misinformed" about the hat again. The hat is still giving out AT A FINALE and not a minute before, SAME AS LAST YEAR.
Sigh...somehow I wonder people at Anet are making Gaile's job difficult on purpose.

You just misread her. The finales occur "during the weekend event." The reward is not the same as last year because there was an additional prize.
