Fortnite Festival songs: Full set list and line-up explained

As a seasoned Fortnite player who’s been through the ups and downs of virtual battlegrounds, I can say that the musical landscape of Fortnite Festival is as dynamic as the game itself. Every week, Epic Games treats us to new tunes on Thursdays at 3 pm UK time, a moment eagerly awaited by players like me who love grooving while we shoot our way to victory.


As a long-time Fortnite player and music enthusiast, I am thrilled about the latest update to the game! The new batch of Fortnite Festival songs is just what I needed to breathe some fresh air into my gaming sessions. Having grown up with video games and being a fan of contemporary Latin music, I couldn’t be more excited to see Karol G at the heart of this year’s Fortnite Festival for season 5. The arrival of these new tunes on Friday, August 16th, is going to make my gaming experience even more enjoyable and immersive. I can’t wait to dance along with these catchy rhythms as I battle it out in the virtual world of Fortnite!

The Grammy-winning artist continues a tradition previously set by Metallica, Lady Gaga, Billie Eilish, The Weeknd, and others, who have all made appearances in Fortnite’s rock concert-inspired gameplay mode before.

The Fortnite Festival, in case you’re curious, is created and overseen by Harmonix – the team that produced Rock Band and Guitar Hero!

Fans of Fortnite Festival have noticed that music selections change regularly, featuring acts like Queens of the Stone Age, Weezer, Kendrick Lamar, The Cranberries, and even Star Wars’ Cantina Music.

Hey there, folks! Being a long-time Fortnite player myself, I can tell you that Season 5 of Fortnite Festival is shaping up to be quite the spectacle. If you’re curious about what’s going on and want to know the latest tunes they’ve got lined up, then buckle up!

Karol G arrives with new Fortnite Festival songs
