Australia, 11 April 2023: Red Bull High Grounds, an Australian-first live event experience, is offering amateur players the unique opportunity to draft their dream team and compete for glory in one of the world’s most talked about games, Fortnite.

In this new format, Red Bull High Grounds invites amateurs to qualify for one of fifteen team captain slots. With the draft order based on qualification placement, these team captains will select two players from allocated talent pools, one Fortnite professional and one top tier content creator, to make up their dream trio.
