Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 1 could be one of the longest seasons we've had for a while, but the end date is now in sight as we head into 2024. Here's when Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 1 will end.
Epic Games has treated Fortnite players to a mammoth amount of new content over the last few months. Last year's Fortnite OG mini-season was so successful that it's set to return this year, and this was followed up by The Big Bang live event that launched Chapter 5 Season 1, which in turn led to the launch of Fortnite Festival, Rocket Racing, and Lego Fortnite. And now, with Fortnite Winterfest 2023 coming to an end, it's time to look ahead to Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2.
Here's exactly when Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 1 will end.
Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 1 end date
The Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 1 end date is set for March 8, 2024, with the current season end time likely to be around 7am GMT / 2am EST, which is also March 9, 2024 at 11pm PST. We know the Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 1 end date as this is when the current season's Battle Pass is shown to be ending in-game.
Epic could, of course, change the Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 1 end date as we get closer to the time, but as of right now, this is the date that we expect the current season to end, we expect Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2 to launch a few hours later. The Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 4 started on August 24, 2023 and ended on November 3, 2023, making it around two-and-a-half months in length, so with Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 1 starting on December 3, 2024, the current season could run for around four months in total.

Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2: what to expect
Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2 leaks and predictions are a bit thin on the ground right now, but there are a few whispers on Twitter, with users like @ScyanYT posting that the upcoming season could be based around Greek mythology, with Atlantis potentially playing a role in the story. They also suggest that Floor is Lava could be returning, but this time the lava could be gold, with Fortnite villain Midas potentially having an impact on the mode.
