You read that right: a giant block of ice is on the Fortnite Chapter 6 map, and it houses one of the greatest Christmas artists of all time. However, the game doesn’t make its location obvious. So, here’s where to find frozen Mariah Carey in Fortnite before she thaws out.
How To Find Mariah Carey in Fortnite Chapter 6
The Winterfest Fortnite update brings a festive layer of snow to the Battle Royale Island. A significant part of the map is blanketed in white, and right in the heart of it all, you'll find a colossal block of ice. It's perched southwest of Brutal Boxcars, atop a mountain that's hard to overlook. While most players might shy away from landing here at the game's start due to the scarcity of loot, those daring enough to venture there first will discover a few chests.
Fortnite insiders believe that the legendary musician Mariah Carey is encased within. As she gradually thaws, she's setting the stage for an epic event on the Fortnite map in the coming weeks.

What Happens When Mariah Carey Thaws Out in Fortnite?
Fortnite has been spotlighting musicians lately. In the previous season, Snoop Dogg, Eminem, and Ice Spice had NPCs on the map and played key roles in the massive Remix The Finale event, which also featured Juice WRLD. Now, just weeks into Chapter 6, Fortnite is tapping into the musical vein once again, this time with Carey performing her iconic holiday tunes in Battle Royale.
A mini-event is planned during Winterfest, though the exact date remains a mystery. Given Carey's association with Christmas, it's reasonable to expect this event before December 25th. Alongside the event, Carey will have a skin available in the Item Shop, and players can snag a free "All I Want for Christmas Is You" Emote. Even after the event wraps up, players can continue to enjoy Carey's presence and spread holiday cheer across the map. Who could be upset about a loss when they're serenaded by such an angelic voice from the opposing team?
