Car Meets and Drag Meets

Forza Horizon 6 has three permanent Car Meets, at the Horizon Festival Site, Okuibuki Parking Lot and Daikoku in Tokyo City, where you park, show cars, download tunes and liveries and buy stock copies of cars you see. Drag Meets hold up to 12 players on three strips. Temporary meets come with the Festival Playlist, such as the 7-Eleven meet of Series 6.

Forza Horizon 6 has three permanent Car Meets, at the Horizon Festival Site, the Okuibuki Parking Lot in the alpine region and Daikoku in Tokyo City, where you park beside other players, look round their cars in first person, download their tunes and liveries, and buy a stock copy of any car you like from the Autoshow on the spot. Drag Meets beside them line up to 12 players on three strips with synchronized lights. Both are in the Shared World with no loading screen and no matchmaking, and Playground modeled the Car Meets on the real Daikoku parking area meets: no official events and no entry requirements, always open (Xbox Wire, Jan 22, 2026, pre-release). Temporary meets arrive with the Festival Playlist; the latest, a 7-Eleven meet, ran in Series 6.

What can you do at a Car Meet?

Drive into a meet from the open world and you join it at once. Your character stands beside your parked car, and you can switch to a first-person camera to walk round every car there. From any car you can download its shared tune or livery, or buy a stock version of it from the Autoshow without leaving. Meets are also where groups form: Playground calls them the place to join or start a Convoy (Multiplayer).

One fix matters if you shop at meets: the Series 4 update on Aug 10, 2026 fixed an issue where buying a car at a Car Meet also unlocked its livery, so a purchase gets you the stock car and the livery is a separate download. Liveries are on Customization and Liveries.

Daikoku is also a stage for Festival Playlist events: in week 2 of City Life (from Nov 12, 2026), 15 Gashapon Machine collectibles at Daikoku earn the Halo Shield Recharge Car Horn. Parking at all three meets earns "Parking All Over The World", and parking the 2025 GR GT Prototype at any meet earns "All Eyes On You".

Temporary Car Meets

Playground adds meets for a series at a time as Evolving World features. The first was a Car Meet at the Hokubu Time Attack Circuit in Series 2, Horizon Decades, from Jun 18, 2026 (Time Attack Circuits).

The second was the 7-Eleven meet. Series 6, Horizon Meets (Oct 8 to Nov 5, 2026), built a limited 7-Eleven konbini Car Meet in the Nangan region near Mt. Fuji, with a 7-Eleven prop pack, the Egg Salad Sandwich collectible, a Clerk Uniform and the badges "Welcome!" and "Please Visit Again!". Fourteen Aftermarket cars spawned behind the store, among them the 2008 Mazda Furai, 2010 Lexus LFA, 1998 Mercedes-Benz AMG CLK GTR and 1967 Lamborghini Miura P400 (Aftermarket Cars). The meet closes with the series, but the 7-Eleven konbini stays placeable in EventLab (EventLab and Horizon CoLab).

Series 6: Horizon Meets and convoys

Series 6 was built around meeting up. Its title, Horizon Meets, and Playground's headline, "Convoy Up with Your Friends", pushed players to gather at meets and drive the Playlist together. The series ran four weeks and its rewards and Car Pass cars are on Series 6: Horizon Meets.

How do Drag Meets work?

A Drag Meet is a drag strip in the open world for up to 12 players. Drive to the start grid, ready up, and go on green; the tree lights are synchronized for everyone, so the whole field launches together. There is no matchmaking and no loading. Drag Meets have Convoy leaderboards and weekly in-world leaderboards.

The three strips at launch:

Strip Length
Festival Site 1K 1 kilometer
Irokawa Space Center ¼ mile
Airfield ½ mile

Drag Tires are made for these strips. The Jun 15, 2026 update made Drag Tires no longer optimal outside drag events, and Series 3 reset the Rivals boards that had been set on them (Drivatars and Difficulty). Completing one Drag Meet earns "Fresh Tire Smoke".
