Here are the known new and returning items in the new season:

We’ll update this section of the article with the official patch notes once they’ve been released but we’ve included the Fortnite Festival Season 5 Patch Notes below:

Put your hands together for the next Festival Icon! Fresh off her historic stadium world tour, award winner and pop culture powerhouse Karol G brings her Latin sounds to the world of Fortnite in Festival Season 5.

Unlock Karol G Instruments and a Karol G Outfit in the Festival Pass’ Premium Reward Track, and combat the darkness in a playable concert experience featuring your Festival crew and a special guest list of familiar Fortnite characters. Season 5 kicks off August 16 with v31.00 and ends November 2, 2024, at 12 AM ET!

Karol G MSB Fortnite: A Playable Concert Experience!

Experience a Karol G concert like none other in Karol G MSB Fortnite: a five-part playable concert with an iconic setlist from the five-time Latin GRAMMY winner.

Collect EmPower-Ups to blast away negative energy and spread posi vibes in a neon-drenched party. Familiar locations from the Karol G universe await as you race, surf, and dance the night — and darkness — away.

Made by Magnopus, you can jump into Karol G MSB Fortnite starting Friday, August 23, at 3 PM ET and dance it out all weekend long until 12 PM ET on August 26, 2024. Find the experience in Fortnite’s Discover screen and party up with a max of three other members of your crew! Players who attend the concert in full will get the Bichota 4-String Bass:

Turn up the pulse and keep the beat.

After the concert, it’s time for the afterparty where you can play Karol G songs on either the Main Stage or Battle Stage from a featured rotation! Complete the Karol G Quests that go live at the same time as the concert (August 23 at 3 PM ET) to unlock the Love, Karol G Loading Screen and a Karol G-based Banner Icon.

Power up in Pink with the Festival Pass Tab

Don’t wait ‘til the concert to get the party started. The Festival Quests for Season 5 are in the Festival Pass tab in the Lobby after selecting Main Stage, Jam Stage, or Battle Stage!

Season 5 Festival Pass

Be decked out from head to toe. Complete Festival Quests to earn Festival Points that’ll help you progress through the Season 5 Festival Pass, which has a free reward track and a Premium Reward Track upgrade.

Free Reward Track

Shimmer as you show off with the Keyluxe Keytar, the final reward of the free reward track. Made with some of the finest marble this side of the front row, it includes three alt Styles: Gold, Iridescent, and Starlight!

Fancy some new Jam Tracks to play on your fancy Keytar? The Season 5 Festival Pass includes three Fortnite-favorite Lobby Tracks as Jam Tracks:

• Epic Games – “Keep Poppin’”
• Epic Games – “Orbital Overload”
• Epic Games – “Way Too Fast” 

If you already had these Lobby Tracks in your Locker before Fortnite Festival Season 5, you’ll receive a one-time V-Bucks refund for each one, equivalent to the amount you paid for it. You’ll also receive the Jam Track version!

The stars have aligned and the stage is all yours: grab some star power from the free reward track with the Constellation Aura. Some things are just meant to be.

Stars are one kind of flashy, showmanship is another. Get your Guitar and prove you know the setlist like the back of your head with the Heads Up Emote!

Premium Reward Track

Looking for Karol Goodies? Ones with floral flourishes, pink aplenty, and some glitter too?  Purchase the Premium Reward Track for 1,800 V-Bucks and start unlocking Karol G items and more rewards! No additional Quests are required to unlock these.

Dress yourself as the Latin music artist herself — you’ll immediately unlock the Bichota Season Karol G Outfit when you upgrade to the Premium Reward Track. Never stop believing in yourself!

As for what else is in the Premium Reward Track… Deliver a vocal performance like a boss with the Bichota Mic complete with a flowery base. And make the crowd’s love for you bloom with the Bichota 6-String Guitar. It’s fluorescent, floral, and the final reward of the Premium Reward Track.

And then there’s the music. You can unlock Karol G’s “Qlona” as a Jam Track near the end of the Premium Reward Track. The Jam Tracks from other artists are:

• Avicii – “The Nights”
• Afrojack, Eva Simons – “Take Over Control”
• Ava Max – “My Oh My”

The “Qlona” Jam Track by Karol G.

Please note!  The Season 5 Festival Pass’ free reward track items and Premium Reward Track items are not exclusive to the Pass, and they may become purchasable in the Shop at a later date.
