When does the current Fortnite season end? Chapter 5 Season 3 end date

All good things must come to an end, and Fortnite seasons are no exception. So whether you’ve seen all that the current season has to offer and are excited for what’s next, or you’re scrambling to finish your battle pass before it disappears forever, you should know exactly when the season is set to complete.

That’s why we’ve put together a handy guide to tell you everything you need to know about when the current season of Fortnite is set to finish, so you can get yourself ready for all the new content we’ll get in the next one – let’s take a look.

When does this Fortnite season end?

Chapter 5 Season 3 of Fortnite is currently scheduled to end on Friday, August 16 2024. This date has been confirmed, being shown in the corner of the battle pass screen in-game. While it’s scheduled to end at 2am ET / 7am BST, this time has been altered slightly in the past. So while it’s highly likely that this will be the end date, be aware that there is a chance this could change slightly closer to the date itself.

This end date would make Chapter 5 Season 3 only 70 days long, making it the shortest season in Chapter 5, and the shortest since Season OG at the end of last year which only lasted a mere 29 days.

When does the next Fortnite season start?

We predict that the next season of Fortnite will start on August 16 2024, but this has not been confirmed yet. It can be hard to know when Fortnite seasons will start this far in advance, as some seasons have begun only a few hours after the end of the previous one, while others have taken several days to arrive. For the moment, we assume it will start on the same day, but will update this guide as and when we know more.
