Naturally, Norrath doesn't have Christmas, etc., so they have Frostfell.  (Although they could have just called it Winter Solstice, making up a special name is a common fantasy answer.)

A number of quests are available for a limited time to celebrate Frostfell. In 2011, Frostfell begins on December 8, 2011 and will end on January 8, 2012. There is a new event for 2011, and many past quests are back.
Frostfell heralds the return of Santug Claugg, an ogre in red who hands out toys to deserving boys and girls.  He also, along with his helpers, offers a number of quests which are only available during Frostfell.

{{Cquote|It’s that time of year again, when Santug Claugg gets ready to give presents to the deserving, and sometimes less than deserving, adventurers of Norrath. Starting December 8, 2011 and running through January 8, 2012, Frostfell will be upon us!


All your old favorite quests will be returning this year, whether it be aiding the Frostfell Goblins in saving Santug or commencing Operation: Jolliness to keep Santug in good spirits. There are also a number of New Year’s Adventurers available, so don’t forget Pizimp Nobbletod.


As an added bonus, starting on December 14, 2011, a brand new Frostfell quest will be released! Santug Claugg has become obsessed with the Braxi and wants them to pull his sleigh. Unfortunately there has been an incident with the ship transporting the Braxi to Santug and as a result, Braxi and Gigglegibber Goblins are scattered on beaches throughout Norrath. Make sure to seek them out!}}
