This is just a random idea that popped into my head...
Of all the festivities we get year-round, which one is your favorite?
Mine's Canthan New Year.....just stand around Shing Jea for hours while being showered with presents, checking back periodically to empty my inventory...hit 100k for the first time this past New Year just by selling sweets and alcohol.
Favorite Holiday?

Canthan New Year -- I love getting together with guildies, gathering up all of the ingredients for the feast and sponsoring a district. It's fun 
The past year was a bit of a disappointment since they randomized the mini pet and not everyone who participated got the celestial rat. The celestial fortunes are such fun through the year that I hated having to open all of them trying to get the mini pet to give to a guildie that hadn't gotten one yet, but it was still great fun.
Celestial Minotaur this year?

Canthan New Year is great, but I never actually play the game due to the Nine Rings so I don't think I can call it my favorite.
Halloween and Wintersday, simply because of Costume Brawl/Dwayna vs. Grenth.

Canthan New Year for sure. .

If I can AFK the Rings - I LOVE it.
If I can't - I don't care for it.

IMO, wintersday gets too much love from Anet.
Halloween FTW - but needs more love. WHERE ARE THE HALLOWEEN QUESTS AND WEAPONS!

Definitely Wintersday...good times, yo.

Wintersday, without a doubt. Dragon Festival is pretty cool too, so it'd be right under that for me.

i would have to say canthan new year was my fave because of the decorations and just the style is enjoyable. beetle race prizes and a new different mini every year...how can you go wrong?
i missed every wintersday for the most part due to family stuff or vacation trips.

I think the Mad king festival is the best.....I just love the atmosphere. I like Wintersday, and Canthan new year as well, though the lag during boardwalk events does tend to lessen the enjoyment for me.

Canthan New Year, mainly for decorations and the nine rings.

Dragon Festival for me.
I think the quests are a lot of fun, and the finale is the best there is. Running around with your fellow players trying to grab those orb things. And then the Empress/Emperor comes and gives you stuff.
I would have said Halloween, but there really isn't anything to do for it except stand around and look at the decorations. Although it's a very close second to DF.

Wintersday for me, mainly because it's the best event for getting consumables. Atleast IMO.

Yeah i like the Canthan New Year too, mainly because there's a lot of people around. It always feels festive because there's so many people crowded in the Monastery.
Plus i like the decorations and all that.
But, i think my favourite is Wintersday. I just love the decorations and the snow. It also feels more 'real'; or at least i can relate to it more. You know, the snow, the Christmas trees, etc. I don't celebrate Chinese New Year in real life, and so can less relate to it.

St. paddy's day is epic, in a way.
My fav is Wintersday, followed by Halloween, then St. Paddy's.
Waiting on a Monty Python day!

Canthan festival/Dragon festival by far. Shing Jea is my favorite town, looks so peaceful and lively. Decorations look nice in dark Kaineng (I wish Kaineng would have been night by default, it looks way better than the gray).
As others have mentioned, very populated during this festival, and also more things to do.
Wintersday = meh, I dislike the white brightness, its way too high even turning my monitor to the lowest, decorations look too fake and boring...not really a fan of snow ball arenas either.
Halloween, there isnt much to do on this one except stand around looking at decorations in town...decorations look too fake and boring also. meh

Dragon Festival, the first year was amazing
Can't wait for this year's festival.

Halloween, Costume Brawl was a blast. And at least getting gifts was somewhat of a challenge against Mad King Thorn.
Next best would probably be Canthan New Year, since I celebrate the real Chinese New Year too and what's a better way to waste time and money on GW than to Nine Rings AFK?
