FH6 Festival Playlist Guide — Series 4 Summer: Horizon Mascot Party (Aug 13–20)
FH6 Festival Playlist Guide — Series 4 Summer (Horizon Mascot Party)
Summer opens Series 4 "Horizon Mascot Party" in Forza Horizon 6 — live August 13–20, 2026 (season ends August 20, 14:30 UTC). After that the playlist rolls to Autumn Week 2 — check the Festival page if this post still says Summer after the Thursday rollover. The series runs to September 10 with 10 series reward cars and 53 points available per season. This week leans small, weird, and cheap: kei cars, retro sports, a taxi, and a food-delivery shift.
Heads up: Forza has not published a per-event PTS breakdown for Series 4. The requirements and rewards below are from the official playlist table; point values per card are visible in-game.
This Week's Rewards
Series rewards (Horizon Mascot Party — full series)
| Milestone | Points | Reward |
|---|---|---|
| Series 4 (Low) | 80 pts | 1970 Honda N600 |
| Series 4 (High) | 160 pts | 1967 Renault 8 Gordini |
Series points stack across Summer, Autumn, Winter, and Spring — 212 total across the four weeks, so there is room to miss events and still bank both cars.
Season rewards (Summer only — Aug 13–20)
| Milestone | Points | Reward |
|---|---|---|
| Summer (Low) | 20 pts | 2018 Exomotive Exocet Sport V8 XP-5 |
| Summer (High) | 40 pts | 1969 Datsun 2000 Roadster |
The Exocet is an S2 track toy and new to Horizon — worth the 20-pt floor on its own.
Weekly Challenge: Delightful Drop Off
Requirement: 2017 Toyota JPN Taxi; Feed Me Skills; Car Meet; Photo Reward: 25,000 Credits
- Own and drive the 2017 Toyota JPN Taxi (Autoshow if you don't have it — it's also the Seasonal Job reward)
- Feed Me Skills — clip skill pickups while driving the Taxi
- Park at any Car Meet in the Taxi
- Take a photo of the Taxi to close the chain
Tips: Do all four steps in one session in the same car. Skill chains come fastest in Tokyo traffic where props are dense.
Photo Challenge & Treasure Hunt
Photo Challenge: #SunnySnap
Task: Take a photo of the Wuling Sunshine S at Hokuryu Sunflower Farm Reward: Yellow Sports Sunglasses (Clothing)
The Sunshine S is a cheap Autoshow / Wheelspin car. Drive into the farm, Photo Mode (D-Pad Up), sunflowers in frame.
Treasure Hunt: Shimanoyama Region
Task: Follow the Photo Clue to discover the treasure Reward: 100,000 Credits
Open the Festival Playlist card for the clue image, then filter the map for the Treasure Hunt pin in Shimanoyama. Free credits — do it early.
Seasonal Championships
Small But Mighty — Road, D Class, Eclectic Domestics
Routes: Shimanoyama Circuit, Edamame Circuit, Irokawa Circuit Reward: 1970 Honda S800
D class (100–400 PI) is decided by tires and weight, not power. Build to the class ceiling and keep grip — half the field will spin itself out.
Dango Dashes — Road, S1 Class, Total Supercars
Routes: Highway Circuit, Electric Town Circuit, Daikoku Circuit Reward: 1962 BMW Isetta 300 Export
Long straights and city circuits. Tune for stability over peak downforce; points tally across all three races, so finishing clean beats crash-winning one.
PR Stunts (Retro Sports Cars — B Class)
All three share the same restriction, so build one B-class retro and clear them back to back.
| Stunt | Target | Reward |
|---|---|---|
| Tanbo Launch (Danger Sign) | 590.6 feet | Wheelspin |
| Hakone Turns (Speed Zone) | 80.0 mph | Wheelspin |
| Kawazu Nanadaru Loop Bridge (Drift Zone) | 65,000 points | Wheelspin |
Danger Sign wants speed and a straight approach. Drift Zone wants a long continuous slide — feather the throttle instead of stabbing it.
Time Attack: Edamame Time Attack
Requirement: Eclectic Domestics — D Class — 48.000 seconds Reward: Wheelspin
Same D-class car as Small But Mighty. Learn the lap once, then push braking points.
The Trial: Offroad Scramble
Requirement: Total Buggies & Offroad — A Class Routes: Takashiro Trail, Sunflower Scramble, Bamboo Forest Scramble Reward: 1953 Chevrolet Corvette
The Trial is the biggest single points dump of the week. Team of six vs Unbeatable Drivatars, majority of wins needed — don't wreck your teammates on the narrow trail sections. Check community dirt tunes for an A-class buggy setup.
Seasonal Job & Horizon Play
Tokyo City Food Delivery (Seasonal Job)
Task: Complete a full shift of Tokyo City Food Delivery Reward: 2017 Toyota JPN Taxi
Do this before the Weekly Challenge if you don't own the Taxi — the job hands you the exact car the challenge needs.
Horizon Play: Stunt Party
Task: Complete any Horizon Stunt Party Reward: Mascot Noise (Car Horn)
Any active Stunt Party counts; you don't need to win the mini-games.
Daily Challenges (5,000 Cr each)
Stunt Party (finish Round 3) · Rivals (beat a Rival's Ghost) · Air Skills (earn 3) · Time Attack (3 laps) · Speed Trap (1 Star) · Car Meet (park) · Road Race (complete one)
They unlock one per day — cheap credits and they help close the gap to 40 pts.
Fast path to the Exocet (20 pts)
- The Trial — Offroad Scramble (biggest single dump)
- Championship — Small But Mighty (D class, quick races)
- Treasure Hunt — Shimanoyama Region
- Photo Challenge — #SunnySnap
For the Datsun 2000 Roadster (40 pts), add the three Retro Sports PR stunts, Dango Dashes, the Seasonal Job, Horizon Play, and whatever dailies have unlocked.
Tips
- No fake share codes. Restrictions rotate weekly — pull live setups from community tunes and the Festival hub instead of random 9-digit strings.
- Two cards want Eclectic Domestics D Class and three want Retro Sports B Class — two builds cover five events.
- The JPN Taxi appears twice (challenge car and job reward). Order matters.
- Series ends September 10: bank the N600 (80) and Renault 8 Gordini (160) across all four weeks.
