Livewire, the global gaming marketing leader has teamed up with Virgin Media O2 to create the most epic IRL Fortnite event of 2024, featuring stars from around the world going head to head, live from Indigo at the O2. The main event takes place on 25.11.24, 5 days before the Remix Chapter 2 season finale on November 30th and will feature 20 duos in a custom branded arena. Exclusive, top secret and guaranteed to be a game changing night of Battle Royale action, this event is creator only, but everything will be livestreamed to the world, giving gaming communities around the world multiple ways to watch and engage with all the action.

Some of the biggest names in gaming and culture will be attending, and they are dropping in from Australia, Italy, Germany, Greece, Romania and the Netherlands to take part, showcasing the power of Fortnite and the desire to be part of this groundbreaking experience. The star-studded lineup has a combined global audience of 250m+ and includes Ali-A, Lachlan, Loserfruit, Vikkstar, Angry Ginge and Lydia Violet, plus top music stars Aitch and AJ Tracey, and the hottest names from UK culture including Chloe Burrows and Wes Nelson. 5 O2 Priority winners will also be joining the lineup, getting the chance to stream alongside their heroes. All of them will be battling it out to make history as the last duo standing and the event’s first ever winners, so they can walk with epic prizes from Official Fortnite jeweller, King Ice.

The inaugural Fortnite Remix Chapter 2: Showdown at The O2 is here to support the release of Fortnite Remix Chapter 2. Dropped on November 2nd, the new season features music icons Snoop Dogg, Eminem, Ice Spice and Juice WRLD on a remixed and reimagined Island inspired by the best of early Fortnite Chapter 2 gameplay. The live event will bring that world to life IRL, with the lore of the new season showcased throughout the arena to create a fully immersive experience for talent and their communities. And OG talent like Lachlan, Ali-A and Loserfruit, all of whom have their own Fortnite skins, will supercharge this moment of culture for the masses.

All talent and partners will be dropping pre-event social content and announcements from November 14th, with each superstar Duo revealed in the days before the action begins. To maximise reach and tap into each creator’s community there will be 20 concurrent streams, all broadcasting from Indigo at The O2 across the talent’s preferred platform flooding the major broadcast channels with Fortnite action to make Fortnite Remix Chapter 2: Showdown at The O2 unmissable for the global gaming audience.
