Let's check out the Fortnite Rift Tour!
The mysterious countdown in the center of the map could be linked to the now confirmed Rift Tour coming to Fortnite. The Rift Tour is a concert event planned for August 6 and will bring new cosmetics and quests to Fortnite Season 7. The quests have been announced and are already in-game since July 29.
When Will the Rift Tour Concert Take Place in Fortnite?
According to Epic Games, the Rift Tour will be live from August 6 to 8 in all time zones during set times. Epic Games added a Rift Tour tab to the in-game menu to help you track when each showtime will go live.
All Rift Tour Showtimes:
- August 6th: The Americas at 6:00 pm
- August 7th: Global at 2:00 pm
- August 8th: Asia & Oceana at 12:00 pm
- August 8th: EU & ME at 10:00 am
- August 8th: The Americas at 6:00 pm
Epic games suggest you log on early to Fortnite at least 1 hour ahead of the showtime if you want to see it. Furthermore, each showtime is joinable 30 minutes before the event is live. The run time for the concert has also been discovered by PlayStation console players via the in-game event menu. On this Rift Tour tab, it shows that the event will last for 15 minutes making it slightly longer than the Travis Scott concert event.
What Cosmetics Can You Get During The Rift Tour Concert?
If you log into Fortnite between July 29 and August 8 you can claim the following rewards by doing the in-game Rift Tour quests.

Ariana Grande is Playing at the Rift Tour!
Ariana Grande headlining the Rift Tour is an excellent choice because no female artist has had the Fortnite concert treatment yet. It has also been confirmed that an Ariana Grande skin will be coming to Fortnite and have a few different variations. The skin should appear in the item shop at some point this week. We'll keep you posted and update this article when more information has been revealed.
We will have to wait until Epic announces more info on the skin and to see how much it will cost.
