How to watch the Ariana Grande Rift Tour in Fortnite
To watch Fortnite’s Ariana Grande Rift Tour, you need to log into the game ahead of time, with the v17.30 update applied. Epic Games recommends that you load the game up one hour ahead of the selected showtime. You should see the Rift Tour Playlist go live around 30 minutes ahead of the show, giving you just enough time to win a match before it starts. You’ll want to be ready to join the playlist as soon as possible, because capacity limits might mean you need to come back for another show.
