Long before the addition of Fortnite Festival, Fortnite was bringing musicians to the game. Marshmello held the first concert in 2019, and Travis Scott and Ariana Grande weren’t far behind. Here’s an answer to whether arguably the world’s biggest star, Taylor Swift, is having a concert in Fortnite.
Is a Taylor Swift Concert Happening in Fortnite, Answered
Taylor Swift needs no introduction. Her Eras Tour took the world by storm in 2023, and the concert film that spawned out of it grossed over $250 million at the box office. Swift even has football fans diving into her music due to her relationship with Travis Kelce. All that to say, Swift doesn’t need to be in Fortnite to boost her brand, but that hasn’t stopped other artists.
In late 2023, iconic rapper Eminem appeared as part of the Big Bang event, giving a virtual performance as Fortnite transitioned into Chapter 5. The Weeknd also joined the game recently as part of the Fortnite Festival Battle Pass, providing the mode with songs and a skin. Unfortunately, there’s nothing pointing to Swift being the next major artist to appear in the game.

The first single for Swift’s new album, “The Tortured Poets Society,” is called “Fortnight,” which has a lot of people wondering whether there’s a connection to the Battle Royale game hidden within. However, outside of the two words being pronounced the same, the song has nothing to do with Fortnite, meaning it’s not a tease of things to come. Of course, the situation could change, and Swift might find herself dropping out of the Battle Bus, but don’t expect it anytime soon.
