All Festival Playlist events and points this week
This table follows Playground’s weekly chart for Spring. Targets, routes and full reward names come from the forza.net table.

| 2 | Hide & Seek | 5 VS 1 | Complete a game of Hide & Seek | Super Wheelspin |

*The weekly chart gives 150,000 CR for the Weekly Challenge, while the forza.net table lists 25,000 credits. We list the chart figure because it came with this week’s post. The chart adds up to 49 points, and The Trial alone is worth 10. You can reach the 40-point CR-X while skipping up to 9 points of events. Hide & Seek, Up To Spec and the Stunt Party are all Horizon Play modes worth 8 points together, so you can skip all three and still finish on 41.
Seasonal championships: routes
| Championship | Car class | Routes | Reward |
|---|---|---|---|
| Dockside Drive | Retro Supercars, S1 | Street: Minami Chase, Tokyo City Docks Charge | 1992 Lancia Delta HF Integrale EVO |
| Good Old Days | Retro Rally, C | Dirt: Airfield Trail, Sekibe Scramble, Kinkaku-ji Trail | 2005 Porsche Cayman GT3 WTAC |
| Countryside Views (The Trial) | Country: Japan, B | Road: Narai-Juku Circuit, Shirakawa Circuit, Hokubu Circuit | 2013 Audi R8 Coupe V10 plus 5.2 FSI quattro |
Playground’s weekly post names three routes for Good Old Days. The forza.net table lists only Airfield Trail and Sekibe Scramble.
Treasure hunt this week: Hokubu Region
The official clue is a photo, and Playground doesn’t publish the answer. Two guides published on October 29 agree on the spot:
- PC Gamer (15:18 UTC) puts the chest in central Hokubu, between the greenhouses at Shikisai-no-Oka, the striped flower fields that are easy to spot on the map. Drive northwest on the road through the fields. Where it turns east, the greenhouses are on your left.
- GamesHedge (15:04 UTC) places it in the top-right corner of the Shikisai-no-Oka fields, next to a greenhouse.
Smash the chest for 100,000 CR and 3 points. GamesHedge recommends switching to solo mode if the chest won’t break, because another player’s car parked on top of it can block the smash online.
Photo challenge and daily challenges
#TakingYourTime (2 points, So Cute emote): take a photo of the 1989 Nissan S-Cargo at Kinkaku-ji Temple. The forza.net table lists seven daily challenges for Spring, each paying 5,000 credits. It doesn’t give their points.
- Aftermarket: purchase an Aftermarket Car
- Clean Racing Skills: earn 5 Clean Racing Skills
- Cross Country Race: complete a Cross Country Race
- Speed Zone: earn at least 1 star from Speed Zones
- Drag Meet: complete a run at any Drag Meet
- Wreckage Skills: earn 5 Wreckage Skills
- Danger Sign: earn at least 1 star from Danger Signs
The Wreckage Skills daily overlaps with the Weekly Challenge, so do it in the Renault 5 Turbo.

Series rewards and what ends on November 5
| Reward | Requirement | Ends |
|---|---|---|
| 2025 BMW M4 CS | 80 points across the Horizon Meets series | Nov 5 |
| 2015 Koenigsegg One:1 | 160 points across the series | Nov 5 |
| 1973 Lamborghini Espada 400 GT | Playlist History reward: 1,100 points over multiple series | not stated |
Playground’s post calls this week the “last call” for the limited-time 7-Eleven Evolving World Car Meet in the Nangan region. Car Pass owners also got the 2024 Mercedes-AMG GT 63 4Matic+ on October 29, the last of this series’ four weekly Car Pass cars.
Forza Horizon 6 weekly reset time (UTC)
The Festival Playlist changes every Thursday. Playground’s own series announcements give the start time as 2:30 PM UTC: Horizon Decades on June 18, Italian Exotics on July 16 and Horizon Meets on October 8. For the November 5 reset that would be 9:30 AM ET, 6:30 AM PT and 2:30 PM in London, because US and UK clocks will both be on winter time by then.
One caveat. Playground’s weekly posts went out at 14:30 UTC on October 15 and 22, but the October 29 post appeared at 15:30 UTC, after UK clocks went back on October 25. Treasure-hunt guides for the new week were already online at 15:04 UTC, so the reset itself came before the post. Playground hasn’t published a winter start time, and we’ll confirm it at the November 5 reset.
How the Festival Playlist works
The Festival Playlist is Forza Horizon 6’s rotating set of events, and it’s how the game hands out its limited-time cars. Some of those cars are exclusive to the Playlist. According to Playground’s posts and the forza.net table, it works like this:
- Series and seasons: each update starts a series (Horizon Meets is Series 6). A series runs for four weekly seasons: Summer, Autumn, Winter and Spring.
- Season rewards: each week has two reward cars. Since Series 2 they have cost 20 and 40 points earned in that week. The launch series, Welcome to Japan, used 15 and 30, with series rewards at 60 and 120.
- Series rewards: points from all four weeks count toward two bigger cars. In Horizon Meets those are at 80 and 160 points. The Playlist History reward, the Lamborghini Espada for now, tracks points over several series.
- Event types: each week has a Weekly Challenge (a set of tasks in one car), Seasonal Championships (three races with a class restriction, each paying a car), The Trial (a 10-point championship), PR Stunts and Horizon Life events (Speed Traps, Drift Zones, Danger Signs, Drag Meets, Time Attack, Drift Attack), a Photo Challenge, a Treasure Hunt, Horizon Play modes and daily challenges. The weekly mix changes.
- Monthly Rivals: one Rivals event, Daikoku Circuit in the BMW M4 CS for Horizon Meets, appears on every week’s chart for 4 points.
- Treasure Hunts: Playground names the region and gives a photo clue. The chest pays 100,000 CR and 3 points.
Playground keeps every season’s events in its official table at forza.net/fh6playlists and posts a weekly summary on Steam and forza.net. When the two disagree, we say so on this page.

Monthly Rivals (4) and two Nissan B-class stunts, Konbini Dash and Shiro Switch (2 each), made up the rest. The sources disagree on the egg count: Playground’s post says to smash 15 Egg Sandwich collectibles, while the forza.net table says 20 at the Horizon Stadium.
October 8 – 15: Horizon Meets Summer
The series opened with the 2000 Honda Prelude Type SH (20 points) and the 1974 Toyota Corolla SR5 (40 points; the forza.net table says 1973). That week’s treasure hunt was in the Ito Region, and the #LightLunch photo at the 7-Eleven Car Meet unlocked the 7-Eleven uniform.
What’s next
Horizon Meets ends on November 5. Playground’s Series 6 announcement says the next update is themed around “City Life” in Tokyo, with two new permanent race routes, three new-to-Horizon cars from the Festival Playlist and a new EventLab prop pack. It hasn’t given the cars or a date yet. Forza Horizon 6 is on Xbox Series X|S and PC, including Steam. The PS5 version arrives on January 26, 2027, with Premium Edition early access from January 21.
