Chappell Roan is living the dream. She finally gets her wish as she is set to headline Season 13 of Fortnite Festival — the rhythm-based music game mode within the popular battle royale video game.
In 2025, the Grammy-winning artist and Fortnite player appeared on a BBC Radio 1 interview and pleaded to be included in the game, saying, “Please give me a skin, please.”

“Pink Pony Club,” a track from Roan’s debut studio album, The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess, is part of the Heartcore Music Pass. This can be purchased to access the pink Chappell Roan outfit and an unlockable red version — recreating the singer’s outfits on her tour.

Inspired by Roan’s medieval-esque performance at the 2024 Video Music Awards (VMAs), the Roan of Arc Outfit will also be available in the Fortnite Shop along with the Pink Pony Sidekick and the “Femininomenon” Emote.
Meanwhile, the pass also includes brand new accessories such as the Midwest Princess Keytar, Pink Pony Star Back Bling, Subway Serenader Mic, and Drumset Supernova. These can also be unlocked with a Crew subscription. The rhythm game mode’s Jam Tracks will include her fan-favorite tracks “Good Luck, Babe!,” “HOT TO GO!,” and “The Giver.”
The Main Stage of the festival will be inspired by the castle-themed design from her ‘Visions of Damsels & Other Dangerous Things’ tour.
The Fortnite Festival offers two experiences to its players. The Main Stage experience allows players to perform tracks, and the Jam Stage Experience lets them create their own mash-ups of various tracks. Past headliners of the festival include the likes of Sabrina Carpenter, Bruno Mars, Gorillaz, Lady Gaga, and BLACKPINK’s LISA.
