New Tinkertown is the main town for the gnomes within the zone for which it is named. It is here many of the maneuvers for Operation: Gnomeregan were conducted, resulting in a victory for the gnomes in taking back much of their homeland.

Despite the victory, the entirety of Gnomeregan has yet to be secured, so New Tinkertown remains a gnome base of operations. Quests can be found here, as well as class trainers and a variety of vendors.
