All Fortnite Birthday event quests and rewards (2024)

It's time to celebrate another year of Victory Royales!

Fortnite officially launched on July 21, 2017, making it just over seven years old. While we’re a couple of months late to its actual birthday, we’re still celebrating it by eating cake, setting off fireworks, and opening gifts. You can even get a few free rewards for finishing every quest.

All Fortnite seventh Birthday event quests

Fortnite’s seventh birthday event has six quests you can complete, ranging from eating cake to using the flare gun to set off fireworks. Three rewards are up 🐭for grabs, requiring you to finish at least five of the six tasks. Below is every birthday event quest:

  • Wish the bus driver a Happy Birthday (7)
  • Throw Birthday Presents or open chests (7)
  • Travel distance while airborne with balloons from Birthday Medallions (777)
  • Eat slices of birthday cake (7)
  • Release or pop balloons (7)
  • Reveal players by setting off fireworks with the Flare Gun (7)

Fortunately, many of these tasks are straightforward once you get used to a few mechanics. Wishing the bus driver a happy birthday requires you to emote while riding on the Battle Bus, while balloons and birthday cake are located i💧n the same ten areas around the map.

From here, finding flare guns and birthday presents is luck-based, as they both appear as floor and chest loot. Lastly, the Birthday Medallion is a present reward, so you’ll need those to knock out at least two to three tasks.

Completing one of these six quests rewards you with the Birthday Bud emote, while finishing three gives you the Cake Clobberer pickaxe. The grand prize is the Sprinkly Space Cake back bling for completing five quests, so you’re allowed to skip one if it’s particularly difficult or time-consuming. For me, that was the flare gun one, but it all depends on your luck.
