Fortnite developer Epic Games and Disney have teamed up to bring an exclusive D23 – that’s the official Disney fan club – livestream to the battle royale game this weekend. In addition, the event will grant a look into the near future of Fortnite.

The in-game event, titled Disney Horizons Live from D23, has been organized as part of ongoing D23 celebrations taking place from August 9-11. Hosted on a limited-time island, it will showcase the wealth of Disney content popping up in Fortnite in the near future. Those who join in will also be able to secure a unique cosmetic from the event.

Fortnite D23 event start date and time

Disney Horizons Live for D23 will start in Fortnite on August 10, 2024, at 7:30 p.m. PT / 10:30 a.m. ET. Don’t worry if you’re going to miss the event, because it will remain available to watch in Fortnite until August 16.

The D23 Island will open shortly before the event starts, so make sure you grab some snacks and login to the island so you don’t experience any server issues.

How to watch the Fortnite D23 event

You’ll be able to access the D23 Island in Fortnite on the Discover bar ahead of the event, or you can use the Island Code to access it directly if you can’t find it.

The Fortnite D23 island code is: 7908-6413-2516.

To be able to get the free Peelverine Plus Back Bling – a hybrid plush of Wolverine and the iconic Peely in Fortnite – you’ll need to watch 10 minutes of the D23 event in-game. After that, you’ll be granted the Back Bling and some additional XP in September.

Fortnite is promising some never-before-seen content coming to the game in partnership with Disney during the stream, so if you’re hoping to keep up with all of the changes (or are just a massive Disney fan), you won’t want to miss it. Until the show kicks off, there’s plenty of time to enjoy the ongoing Fall Guys Fortnite event or study up on the new Fortnite Battle Pass changes that will affect items in future passes.
