Overview of Upcoming Collaborations in Fortnite
- Sabrina Carpenter is speculated to headline the next Fortnite Festival concert.
- The pop star has previously collaborated with Fortnite, contributing two emotes and Jam Tracks in late 2024.
- Currently, Fortnite Festival is in its seventh season, featuring collaboration with Hatsune Miku.
Recent rumors suggest that Sabrina Carpenter could be the next artist to perform at Fortnite Festival, as shared by a prominent insider. Carpenter has been actively engaged with the game since late 2024, hinting at a strong ongoing partnership.
Fortnite Festival, developed by Epic Games’ Boston-based subsidiary, Harmonix Music Systems, debuted in early December 2023. This rhythmic game mode has consistently expanded its reach with seasonal collaborations featuring renowned artists, and it is currently celebrating its seventh season, which began in January 2025.
Following the conclusion of the collaboration with Hatsune Miku, there are indications that Epic Games may align with Sabrina Carpenter for the upcoming season. Nick “Shpeshal Nick”Baker, co-founder of XboxEra, revealed an anonymous source’s claim of a potential festival featuring Carpenter. This information was disclosed in a conversation Baker shared on social media on January 27.
Additional Characters and Collaborations Coming to Fortnite
Further speculation suggests that Epic is planning to introduce numerous wrestlers and related items, which may signal a future season filled with wrestling-themed content. Additionally, there have been whispers of a James Bond crossover, although details about which version of the iconic character will debut in Fortnite remain ambiguous. Despite these claims lacking official confirmation, Baker’s history of accurately predicting Fortnite collaborations lends credibility to this information. His previous insights have featured successful partnerships with franchises such as The Boys and Pirates of the Caribbean.

If confirmed, the inclusion of Sabrina Carpenter for the eighth season of Fortnite Festival would further solidify her connection to the game. Previously, she received several emotes which were available for purchase from mid-October to early November 2024. Her tracks “Feather”and “Espresso”were also incorporated into Fortnite’s Jam Tracks during the fall of 2024, available for 500 V-Bucks each.
Should Sabrina Carpenter become the next featured artist, she would likely join the Fortnite Festival lineup for the anticipated eighth season set to commence in June 2025. As Epic Games typically refrains from announcing season details far in advance, fans will need to remain patient for the official announcement, which is expected in late spring 2025.
