Travis Scott, Ariana Grande, Eminem and more have all received skins within the game, which might have never happened if Marshmello hadn’t paved that road for them.
The event was held at Pleasant Park, right in the middle of the giant soccer field. Fans would just go hang out as a Marshmello skin took the stage, dropping some hot jams. Now, it is crazy to see the progression Fortnite has made with its live events.
The idea of flying through space for one of these concerts was unheard of during the Marshmello x Fortnite era, making him a pioneer within the live concert Fortnite space.
