Fortnite Giant Candy Cane locations: Where to find Candy Cane locations

Where to find Giant Candy Canes in Fortnite.

Finding Giant Candy Cane locations is one of Fortnite's many Weekly Challenges.

Completing it will give you a reward as part of the 14 Days of Fortnite event.

If you're just getting started, our Fortnite Battle Royale tips and tricks can provide some helpful hints.


Note this particular challenge is no longer able to be completed. What's new? Chapter 4 Season 2 has arrived! New additions include the Grind Rails and Kinetic Blades, along with the new Battle Pass, character collection and Eren Jaeger skin. It's a good idea to know how to get XP fast in Fortnite.

How finding Giant Candy Cane locations in Fortnite works

Finding Giant Candy Cane locations is one of the 14 Days of Fortnite set of Challenges.

The process is really simple - just visit two of the above locations, and the Challenge is complete. As soon as you get close, then the Challenge will appear.

The reward? A new loading screen.

It should be noted if you get there and the Candy Cane isn't available, there's a chance someone else got there first and destroyed it. Thankfully, still going to that location will still add one to your total - so if you are in the right place, it shouldn't matter.

If you want to make this much easier, then finding one of the main plane locations and flying it to the two Giant Candy Cane locations can make this much easier, especially as they are all on hills in awkward positions.
