Sabrina Carpenter might be the next major pop act to join the Fortnite Festival lineup, with several leaks and insider reports pointing to her arrival soon. While Epic Games has yet to officially confirm the addition, the buzz surrounding her inclusion is picking up pace, especially after a number of reputable sources uncovered hints within the game’s files.
The Fortnite Festival, which has already hosted top-tier artists including The Weeknd and Lady Gaga, looks set to continue its run of high-profile musical collaborations. With Season 2 now under way and Lady Gaga headlining, attention has turned to who might take centre stage next—and all signs are pointing to Sabrina.
Several data miners and gaming insiders have discovered audio files, festival passes, and in-game cosmetics that strongly suggest Sabrina’s songs and likeness will soon appear in the rhythm-based game mode. Fortnite news site FNAssist and other leakers found references to the singer’s music and branding in the backend of the game, sparking excitement among fans.
Carpenter’s arrival would mark another major step for Fortnite Festival
Introduced as part of Fortnite’s ongoing expansion into music, the Fortnite Festival game mode combines rhythm gameplay with in-game concerts and artist-themed content. Sabrina’s arrival would place her among a growing list of pop icons bridging the gap between music and gaming.
If the leaks prove true, players can expect several of Sabrina’s biggest tracks to appear as playable Jam Tracks, alongside themed skins and exclusive cosmetics. Her inclusion would follow a similar format to Lady Gaga’s, whose arrival included both a virtual concert and a variety of in-game items.
While Epic has remained tight-lipped, the level of detail in the leaked content suggests her debut is imminent. References to a “Carpenter Festival Pass” and unreleased songs tied to her name have only added fuel to the speculation.
For Sabrina, who’s currently enjoying chart success and a growing global fanbase, the crossover into gaming feels like a natural next step. With Fortnite Festival becoming a major platform for artists to showcase their work in a new format, the singer could see a fresh wave of engagement from both players and music lovers alike.
Until Epic Games makes an official announcement, players will have to wait and see whether the rumours come true. But given Fortnite’s track record and the strength of the leaks, it seems highly likely that Sabrina Carpenter will be the next artist to headline Fortnite’s genre-bending Festival mode.
