Fortnite's new season is certainly epic in proportion, but big updates always make players wonder when the next Fortnite live event might be.

Now that Chapter 5 Season 3 is under way, without any whiff of a big launch event, fans have been sent back to the drawing board for another round of guesswork.

Whatever the future may hold in terms of events, we'll no doubt be getting a slew of content to keep us busy for months to come, with LEGO Fortnite, Fortnite Creative, Rocket Racing and Fortnite Festival likely to receive new updates too.

But the next Fortnite live event is still the stuff of fan dreams, so let's get to it!

When is the next Fortnite live event? Our speculation

We would speculate that the next Fortnite live event will probably line up with some of the other new content that is slated to arrive in the game soon. For instance:

Only time will tell if something live and cool is planned to coincide with any of those upcoming content drops.

Our best guess would be that the end of the current season, in mid-August, is probably a good time to expect something big to happen.

Of course, players have grown accustomed to smaller-scale live events, as well as the big concerts and other game-changing overhauls.

Sometimes, a Fortnite live event can be as simple as weird stuff happening live on the island at specific times.

We'll update you if we hear anything concrete.

When was the last Fortnite live event?

The last Fortnite live event was Pandora's Box being opened, which ushered in the start of Chapter 5 Season 2: Myths and Mortals.

It began at 10pm GMT on 8th March, after being delayed for a few hours.

Before Pandora's Box opened, players had to contend with lethal earthquakes that were tearing the landscape apart.

How to join a Fortnite live event

To experience the next Fortnite live event, it's best to join a game of Battle Royale before the event is due to begin to experience it in its entirety.

In preparation for events, Epic often take down Fortnite experiences (like creator mode) until the event's conclusion as they begin to work on implementing the update.

We suspect that it will play out much the same way for the next live event, though we'd recommend logging on at least a couple of hours early if you are serious about attending it.

As the most popular game in the world, Fortnite commonly receives huge queues as players attempt to sign on to Epic's servers. And we wouldn't want anyone to miss out.
