Fortnite Chapter 7 Season 3 runs weekly Sprite events every single week. Monday, Thursday, and Saturday each have their own event with different rewards and modifiers. Epic posted the full schedule in an official gameplay blog early in the season.
Full Fortnite Sprite Weekly Event Schedule
| Day | Event | Time |
| Monday | Mastery Monday | 9 AM ET — runs 24 hours |
| Thursday | New Sprite Drop | Added to loot pool all day |
| Saturday | Power Hour Session 1 | 2 PM ET – 4 PM ET |
| Saturday | Power Hour Session 2 | 9 PM ET – 11 PM ET |
Fortnite Mastery Monday: Best Weekly Farming Window
Mastery Monday Runs Every Monday at 9 AM ET for 24 Hours
Mastery Monday goes live every Monday at 9 AM ET and stays active until Tuesday at 9 AM ET. Every part of the Sprite grind gets a boost during this window.
Active modifiers during Mastery Monday:
- Boosted Legendary and Mythic Sprite spawn rates from Sprite Chests
- 2x Sprite Dust from all sources
- 2x Sprite XP for leveling up
- Extra Portable Extractors available across the map
Rare Sprites like the Grim Reaper Sprite and Zero Point Sprite show up far more often during Mastery Monday than in regular matches. Any Sprite sitting at Level 4 should get pushed to mastery during this window — the 2x XP and extra chest rates make it the fastest way to finish the collection grind.

Thursday New Sprite Drops in Fortnite
New Sprites Enter the Loot Pool Every Thursday
Thursdays are when Epic adds new Sprites or special variants into the loot pool. The Gummy variant debuted on June 11, 2026 as the first Thursday drop, and new additions have continued on the same cadence each week since.
No gameplay modifiers come with Thursday drops. The new Sprite enters Sprite Chests from that day forward and stays in the pool. Checking which Sprite dropped Thursday helps narrow down where to focus farming for the rest of the week.
Fortnite Saturday Power Hours Schedule
Power Hours Run at 2 PM ET and 9 PM ET Every Saturday
Saturday Power Hours run twice per day — first session at 2 PM ET, second at 9 PM ET. Each session now runs two hours after a schedule overhaul earlier in the season. The featured Sprite type rotates each week.
Standard Saturday Power Hour modifiers:
- Boosted spawn rates for the featured Sprite type
- Starting loadout item for every player entering a match
- Health and shield restoration on successful Sprite extraction
- Stacking Sprite leveling multiplier per extraction for the rest of the match
Past Power Hours have included Gummy Hours, Galaxy Hours, and Gold and Gummy Hours, with each adding its own extra modifier on top of the standard set. Gold Power Hours in particular boost Gold Bar income from Mythic Goldfish eliminations alongside the standard spawn rate buffs.

Final Thoughts
Three events, three days, every week until August 19, 2026. Mastery Monday for rare Sprite farming. Thursday for tracking what is new in the pool. Saturday for two Power Hour sessions with featured Sprite boosts. Hitting all three consistently is the fastest path through the Chapter 7 Season 3 Sprite collection.
