Fortnite Winterfest is well underway, and there's still time to claim free rewards via the cabin. It'll all be over soon, however, so here's when the Winterfest event ends.

While we all wait for the next Season of Fortnite, there are the Winterfest celebrations to tide us over for the next few days. With huge updates like these, it's no wonder that Fortnite continues to rank highly in our best crossplay games list.

What is Fortnite Winterfest?

Fortnite Winterfest is an annual event themed around the Holiday season. For the past few years, there's been an interactive Advent calendar, where players could open presents each day, containing festive-themed cosmetics. These have ranged from loading screens to harvesting tools and skins.

In the Tweet embedded below, you'll see a Holiday postcard, with some characters gathered outside a cabin. You can see Harry Potter characters, Sabrina Carpenter, Hatsune Miku, and then original characters like Jonesy and Fishstick.
