Fortnite's Next Big In-Game Concert Stars Ariana Grande

The pop star will headline five in-game shows hosted across three days starting on August 6

Epic announced today that Ariana Grande is the next big musician who will be teleporting into the virtual world of Fortnite in a series of concerts starting next week.

Ariana Grande is headlining a series of concerts as part of something called “Fortnite Rift Tour.” Players will be able to log on to see Grande’s digital avatar performing across five performances spread across different days and times.

Here’s the schedule for the event:

Show 1

• Friday, August 6 @ 6PM ET

Show 2

• Saturday, August 7 @ 2PM ET

Show 3

• Sunday, August 8 @ 12AM ET

Show 4

• Sunday, August 8 @ 10AM ET

Show 5

• Sunday, August 8 @ 6PM ET

Epic says this schedule was created to allow fans around the world multiple chances to see the famous pop star perform. It also recommends players show up an hour before the event begins. The rift tour event playlists will go live 30 mins before each performance. In the past, Fortnite events like this have suffered from server issues leading to delays and some players being locked out of events.
