Fortnite Birthday Event 2024 is set to arrive soon, bringing new quests and rewards for players. This limited-time event is a regular feature, offering players the chance to earn special in-game items and engage with themed challenges. Here’s what to expect from the 2024 edition of Fortnite’s birthday event.
Start Date for Fortnite Birthday Event 2024
Epic Games has not yet officially announced the start date for the Fortnite 2024 birthday event. However, based on past events, it is likely that the event will begin around September 24, 2024. This assumption is based on previous years when Fortnite’s Battle Royale mode, originally released on September 26, 2017, held its birthday events around this time.
Updates for Fortnite usually go live on Tuesdays, and September 24 falls on a Tuesday, making it a probable date for the event’s launch. Players can expect the event to drop in the game within that week, though Epic Games is yet to confirm the exact schedule.

The birthday event traditionally introduces new quests and rewards. In 2023, players were able to earn various in-game items like back bling, a pickaxe and a spray by completing birthday-themed challenges.
This year is expected to follow a similar pattern. Leaked information suggests that popular items like cake slices, balloons, and flare guns could make a return. There are also rumors that a birthday-themed Medallion will be featured again, though this has yet to be officially confirmed.
