The annual Winterfest event is back in Fortnite and there are 14 presents waiting to be unwrapped, filled with freebies including outfits, Back Bling, emotes, and more.
Fortnite Winterfest 2022 kicked off this week and it gives players the chance to unwrap one present per day until the event wraps up on January 3 at 2pm GMT / 9am ET / 5am PT. And don't worry if you miss any days of opening presents – there's a way to claim any unopened gifts before Winterfest ends.
There are also a few things you can get up while in Cozy Lodge, aside from opening presents, as well as bonus gifts that can be unlocked including the Guff Gringle skin, and Chilli-La-La-Llama Back Bling. But we'll get into all that after we address the gifts.
There are 14 presents total, that'll reward you with 17 items including two outfits, two Gliders, two Wraps, three Lobby Tracks, three Sprays, one Back Bling, one Contrail, one Emote, and one Emoticon. So let's dive into the festivities and get you those goodies!
How to get presents in Fortnite Winterfest 2022
To unwrap your Fortnite Winterfest presents, just head to the Cozy Lodge every day. The location is accessed via the main menu – just look for the snowflake tab at the top of the screen and select it to be transported to the roaring fireplace of the aptly named Cozy Lodge.
Presents are piled up on either side, ripe for unwrapping, so just choose a pile, pick the one that catches your eye, and get to opening! If you've been visiting daily, and are up to date with your presents, you'll be limited to one per day. But if you're running behind, you'll be able to open more than one to catch up. There's a handy counter in the top left of the screen that lets you know how many presents you can open, so take a glance at that if you've lost track.
Fortnite Winterfest 2022 presents list
The Fortnite Winterfest presents aren't randomised. Each specific box contains a particular item, so you can choose exactly what you want ahead of time. Just make sure you practice your surprised face so no one knows you've spoiled the fun. Here's a complete list of presents, and we'll show you which item is on which box further down the page.
- Har-Har-Har! Glider
Arctic Adeline Outfit
Sledgecracker Pickaxe
Lil' Prancer Emote
Slushy Sneak Wrap
Season's Guffings, Naughty or ice?, and Slush-Faced Sprays
Boom Bauble Emoticon
Rip & Tear Lobby Track
Wintry Whirligig Glider
Fa-La-La-Llama Back Bling
Gringle Gift Wrap
When the Wind Blows, and Fractured Melody Lobby Tracks
Ribbon Trail Contrail
Sled Ready Guff Outfit
That's 14 presents with 17 gifts total as promised. The present that the Gruff in the middle of the room is wrapped around is for the last day of Winterfest once you've opened all of the other presents. He won't hand it over before then. The present with the Arctic Adeline Outfit is also off-limits, so you'll have to save it until last too.
Here's which item is in which present so you can zero in on what you want, rather than enduring the element of surprise.

How to get Guff Gringle and Chilli-La-La-Llama in Fortnite Winterfest 2022
Guff Gringle is for PC players only because you have to boot up Fortnite from the Epic Games Launcher to get the outfit. Once you've done that, head over to the Item Shop and you can redeem Guff Gringle for free!
The Chilli-La-La-LLama Back Bling isn't platform-specific, but you do need to be a Fortnite Crew member – and that costs money. If you're already a member, then, of course, this is a nice little freebie. If you're not, but are desperate to have the Chilli-La-La-LLama's sneezes accompany every elimination or chest-opening, then you can sign up for £9.99 / $11.99 / AU$17.55.
Being a Fortnite Crew member gives you full access to the current season's Battle Pass, 1,000 V-Bucks per month, and various other benefits. You can sign up on the Fortnite Crew page.
Things to do in Cozy Lodge
Winterfest challenge
Look out for pizza in Cosy Lodge! Collecting slices is part of the Winterfest challenges. You can find pizza on the floor in front of the sofa, leaning up against the speaker by the pile of presents on the right, and on the left side of the room on the table next to the fridge. You can spot two slices in the images we've used above.
Bonus XP
Baby, it's cold outside! So take a seat in front of the fireplace to clock up some free XP.
Just for fun
You can also play with the bells by the pile of presents on the right, look inside the refrigerator hidden on the left-side of the room by clicking on the left-hand pile of presents first, play with the yellow controller on the sofa to activate a mini motorbike toy, and turn the neon llama lamp on and off.
