The Rift Tour was first announced 3 days ago with Epic claiming more details would be coming on August 2nd, however, due to a major leak of trailers and event footage earlier today, the official announcements were pushed forward.

In a similar rollout to Travis Scott's Astronomical Event last year, there will be a total of five showings of the Rift Tour Event from August 6th - 8th.

Times include:

Show 1
Friday, August 6 @ 6PM ET

Show 2
Saturday, August 7 @ 2PM ET

Show 3
Sunday, August 8 @ 12AM ET

Show 4
Sunday, August 8 @ 10AM ET

Show 5
Sunday, August 8 @ 6PM ET

Fortnite have recommended that players should login to Fortnite at least 60 minutes before a show starts to avoid queues, with the limited-time Rift Tour playlist becoming available in-game 30 minutes before each show. According to the

As well as appearing to perform during the Rift Tour shows, Ariana Grande will also be getting her very own Icon Series set available for players to purchase in the Item Shop.
