The Time Rift event is a new feature introduced in Patch 10.1.5, and it is located in Thaldraszus.
Make sure to keep an eye on the clock because the event spawns every 30mins, giving you plenty of chances to participate. The event consists of two distinct parts. The first part lasts for 8 minutes and requires you to fill up the Temporal Essence bar by completing objectives within Tyrhold Reservoir.
