Festival Playlist/Winter Season
It’s winter again and, as usual, there are rewards for completing both the Festival Playlist and the Horizon Winter Season. For the Playlist, once you complete 50% over the Summer to Spring seasons, you’ll snag the Epic 2017 Alpine A110. Complete 80% of the seasonal objectives, you’ll snag the Legendary Shelby Daytona.
As for the Horizon Winter Season, 50% completion will snag you the Rare 2018 Megane RS while 80% completion — tasks, races, PR Stunts, Season Events, and Trials on Great Britain (not Fortune Island or LEGO Valley) — will net you the Legendary Classic Race Suit.
