Halloween: Details of Act 4 and update

A message on the Facebook page of Guild Wars 2 and the official forums informs us that the act 4 Halloween begin October 31 to 17h, and will end on November 1st at 20h.

Act 4 begins when the only activity of Act 3, namely the Mad King's Ascension, close its doors until next year. However, the activities of acts 1 and 2 will still be available until the end of the seasonal event.

The feast planned for Act 4 will run indefinitely until the end of this year. You will not need to go to Lion's Arch at a specific time. You can celebrate whenever you want.

To conclude, an update took place early this morning. Now all doors Haunted Valley Queen of Hills and Fields Kesse Gendarran will be open until the end of Halloween, so that all gw2 gold players have access to the wonders of the Kingdom of Mad King no specific prerequisites. However, meta-events introduced in Act 2 are no longer available.

You can find the details of the Act 4 and the update on the official forums here and there, or directly as a result of this news:
