When is the Fortnite Chapter 3, Season 2 live event finale? Collision event schedule & leaks
Fortnite Chapter 3, Season 2 is drawing to a close and one of the highlights of a new season is the live event. Here’s everything we know about the Fortnite Chapter 3, Season 2 Collision live event.
Fortnite is known for its incredible crossovers and live events as much as its gameplay. These events feature unique playlists that have players join to watch the event together, and they’re usually used to usher in the next season or Chapter.
Players were disappointed when Chapter 3’s first season didn’t include one of these live events, but the good news is that Chapter 3, Season 2 will feature a live finale to kick off Season 3.

These skins were first leaked shortly after the arrival of the Fortnite 20.40 update patch, and we might finally see them make an appearance when the Collision live event finale goes live.
Fortnite Intel claimed in a tweet that once the event concludes, there will be “an extended downtime,” with a “waiting screen similar to previous events.” It has not been confirmed exactly how long the downtime will last.
