Huge Fortnite gaming festival coming to the UAE

Celebrate the Season 10 launch with Mo Vlogs, Ahmed Al Nasheet and more at Dubai Festival City Mall

Sharpen those pickaxes and save up those V Bucks, Fortnite Season 10 is about to launch, and what better way to celebrate a new season of challenges than a ten-day gaming extravaganza in Dubai. 

Dubai Summer Surprises, in partnership with ITP Gaming and PS4, is hosting a massive gaming festival to mark the launch of Season 10, and some of the biggest content creators in the Middle East will be there.

Taking place at Festival Square, Dubai Festival City Mall, from today (Thursday July 25) until Saturday August 3, gamers will get the chance to compete against bigtime players including Mo Vlogs (@movlogs), Dyler (@dyl3r), DJ Bliss (@djblissdubai) and Ahmed Al Nasheet (@dvlzgame) – just to name a few.

The gaming festival is open to all, with fans being able to meet (and dance) with Fortnite characters, snap a selfie with the iconic pickaxes, and even participate in emote challenges.

Better yet, shoppers who spend a minimum of Dhs300 at Dubai Festival City Mall can register and compete in a competition, where players with the highest daily score will be invited to play with influencers. Time to ‘git gud’.

There’s also plenty of “Dance Royale” challenges where fans can finally bust a move and show off their Fortnite dance skills on stage, all for a chance to win prizes.

Ready to put on that game face? The festival will go on each day from 3pm until midnight, give fans plenty of time to show up and play some Fortnite with pals.

Players are able to choose whether they want to play Fortnite in Arabic or English, as the recently launched Fortnite Season 9 (and soon-to-be launched Season 10) offers versions of the game in both languages.

Don’t miss out on the launch festival before Season 10 officially launches globally on Thursday August 1.

It’s a Fortnite party you don’t want to miss.

Free. Thu Jul 25-Sat Aug 3, 3pm-midnight. Festival Square, Dubai Festival City Mall.
