The Lost Ark Arkesia Grand Prix event will run from March until the April update. While the exact date for this hasn’t been announced, we’ll keep this page updated as further information emerges.
You can participate in the event every two hours, so if you’re looking to farm up your Arkesia Event Tokens be sure to check back every second hour.
What is the Arkesia Grand Prix?
As we mentioned before, the Arkesia Grand Prix is a 7v7 PvP race. Players will take control of their own adorable little dinosaur (called a Naruni) and try to collect as many cakes as they can. Yes, you read that correctly; you are a dinosaur trying to get cakes.
But beware! There are some ravenous creatures on the enemy squad as well that are also looking for a taste of some sweet floury goodness, so you’ll have to defeat them to earn some Arkesia Event Tokens.

In order to take part in the Grand Prix, you’ll need to visit an Arkesia Grand Prix Manager in any major city (Prideholme excluded). Chat to these lovely ladies to get started, but you will need to be Level 50 in order to participate in the race.
