Epic Games continue to surprise with Fortnite's events, often making things that normally have no business in games work wonderfully. This time, it's an in-game tour with Travis Scott.

"From April 23-25, blast off into a one of a kind musical journey featuring Travis Scott and the world premiere of a brand new track. Astronomical is an other-worldly experience inspired by Cactus Jack’s creations, built from the ground up in Fortnite", the company wrote in the official announcement. 

Being a globally popular game, of course, there's no way to organise a single event to cover all of Fortnite's fans, which is why Epic and Scott opted for multiple dates. This should come in particularly handy if you like what you hear, as you can always return for an encore.

So, the Fortnite-Scott Astronomical timeline looks as follows:

  • Friday, Apr 24, 2020, 1 AM GMT+2
  • Friday, Apr 24, 2020, 4 PM GMT+2
  • Saturday, Apr 25, 2020, 6 AM GMT+2
  • Saturday, Apr 25, 2020, 5 PM GMT+2
  • Sunday, Apr 26, 2020, 12 AM GMT+2

To mark the occasion, Epic announced that Fortnite is getting fresh new cosmetics in the Icon Series. Starting on 21 April, you can get Scott-themed outfits, emotes and more.

Last but not least are the free goodies Fortnite's concertgoers will get should they attend any of the Astronomical events. Log in and hop into any of these dates andn you get Astroworld Cyclone Glider and two loading screens.
