Naxxramas will requirement attunement in Classic WoW, much like Blackwing Lair (BWL) and Molten Core (MC).
Naxx's attunement process is a bit different, however.
Naxx attunement requires an exchange of materials and gold, where grinding up your reputation with the Argent Dawn will mean a massive discount.
This is where the Scourge Invasion will be a big help, as participating in the event will earn you plenty of Argent Dawn reputation.

Release Time
Naxxramas will arrive in Classic WoW on 3 December at 5:00pm EST!
It's unclear whether this will involve servers going down first, or be updated live.
The Scourge Invasion
Naxxramas will kick off with a massive event where players must defend Azeroth from the Scourge Invasion.
The Scourge Invasion will target nearly every zone in Classic WoW. Players must clear these zones of Scourge to protect them, and after defending 300 zones, the Scourge Invasion will be repelled on the server.
