After your initial race, you'll be guided to the Horizon Festival hub. This is your central base of operations. Here, you can access your garage, buy new cars, upgrade existing ones, and select new events. The game will prompt you to explore the hub and familiarize yourself with its various sections. Take a moment to browse the 'Buy Cars' dealership and the 'Upgrade' shop. You won't have many credits yet, but it's good to know where these options are. The main objective at this point is to start accumulating popularity. Look for the 'Horizon Festival' tab in the pause menu to see your current popularity and the requirements for the next wristband. Completing a few more introductory races and performing some skill moves in the open world will quickly get you to the next stage.
