Season 4 of Fortnite Festival will soon be coming to an end, but before Epic Games makes way for Karol G, next season's Festival Pass icon, two farewell Metallica showtimes will take place. This way, gamers who missed out on the concert experiences in June will get the chance to tune in for the first time and those who enjoyed it the first time around can rewatch it.

Whether players are familiar with Metallica's songs or not, they should definitely make sure that they're part of this event, as these will most likely be the last two times it will air. This article will tell players what they need to know about the upcoming shows so they don't miss out.

Metallica Concert Dates

Players can watch the Metallica concert in Fortnite on August 2 and August 5. This time around, there will only be two showtimes, one on each day. Here are the concert dates and times:

  • Friday, August 2
    • 3 PM ET

  • Monday, August 5
    • 3 PM ET

Once a showtime is live, gamers have 30 minutes to join in and still be able to tune in and watch the full show. During the event, six of Metallica's most well-known songs will play as gamers dance around, battle the Master of Puppets, and climb obstacles.

How to Watch the Metallica Show in Fortnite

Many gamers might be wondering if they should enter the Battle Royale game mode or Fortnite Festival in order to watch the Metallica concert. However, the Metallica gig will be a separate experience entirely, and in order to watch it, players will have to enter it through the Discover screen in Fortnite once one of the showtimes is live.

The Discover screen is located directly below the lobby where gamers wait for a game to start, so to find the Metallica show, players must scroll down and search for its name: "Metallica: Fuel. Fire. Fury."
