Midsummer Fire Festival is close, so here comes the next guide. In the first part I’d post all the know locations of the fires. As of now, most of them are based on last years event. The chances are next to zero that there are some significant changes in the event/achievements.
For the moment, they aren’t sorted or optimized for the shortest route. I have much to do at the moment and I’ll try to find some more time to calculate the optimal route and update the guide according to this.

**) This entries are objective of the King of the Fire Festival achievement.
This covers majority of the achievements from Midsummer World event, like:
if you’re Alliance and the below ones if you’re Horde:
King of the Fire Festival
The King of the Fire Festival achievement is one of the easier one and can usually got by doing the achievements above. Basically you just have to walk into the enemy city, use the big fires there. Once you got all three you can start a quest to turn them in. Will add screenshots, when i got some time.
Burning Hot Pole Dance (link)
There is not much to say. Find a pole, target it and dance.
Ice the Frost Lord (link)
Summon and kill Lord Ahune - The Frost Lord in Slave Pens. He spawns an Ice Chest after his death which contains Shards of Ahune. This starts a quest which can be turned in to get one of two tabards.
However, I’m pretty sure there was some pre-quest. I think it was a quest called Unusual Activity which is give by Earthen Ring Elder which can be found at any capital city near the fires.
Torch Juggler
40 torches in 15 seconds. Pretty easy one, just get 40 Juggling Torch by doing Torch Catching daily quest. A good hint: Enable shadows (at least step 1 or 2). Then all you need to do is, toss the torch. The shadow will tell you where it will land so just place your character below it.
Once you got enough, drag them to a free and easy accessible action button (for example on the action button which is bound to 1-key). Then simply spam it while selecting a target in the world (you get a small circle like in AoE spells).
