The Forza Horizon 6 Sky Lanterns are an elusive bunch of bright balloons that only appear near the stadium at night in the Autumn season. It's a very specific set of conditions to meet, but there are two ways you can get this Photography challenge done in Forza Horizon 6 to bag yourself 100 Discover Japan points – being in the right place at the right time or using an EventLab cheese. It doesn't matter which method you use, so I've explained both below, including the specific conditions and exact location of the Sky Lanterns in FH6.
Forza Horizon 6 Sky Lanterns location
Sky Lanterns can be found above a field just outside the Horizon Stadium, which is in the Shimanoyama Region on the most westerly point on the map. However, they will only appear at night during the in-game Autumn season.
Head over to the spot on the above map and wait until the sun sets. Eventually, a large cluster of sky lanterns will appear, at which point you just need to switch to Photo Mode and take a picture with the lanterns clearly in view.
However, if you (understandably) don't want to wait ages to for the in-game day/night cycle to do its thing, you can use an EventLab challenge to put you in the right spot at the right time.
Open the Creative Hub menu, then select the EventLab submenu. From here, choose 'Play Challenges', follow the button prompt to search, then type in 'sky lantern' in the Title slot. This will bring up many custom-made challenges that should help you get this challenge done – the one I tested had the share code '136 800 478' and it worked a treat!
During this autumn season, make sure you also know where to find the Forza Horizon 6 bamboo forest and the Forza Horizon 6 Evolving World Car Meet for different weekly challenges.
