The objective of the event is to collect Festival Coins and exchange for rewards.

- Completing Fast Lane Quests
- Purchasing or packs.
Note: Milestone rewards are not granted automatically, but have to be claimed by tapping on them and then tapping on the "claim" button which can easily be overlooked.
Any coins leftover at the end of the event are converted into credits ( 12 per coin).

The milestone boxes of this festival are exactly the same as of the Snowflurry Festival except for the different icon. It is even probable that the internal processes are the same. Players who still had Jolly Snowflurry Packages in their inventory after the Fast Lane Update, could observe a slight change in the official drop rates of the box towards the drop rates of the Jolly Package.
Furthermore, the Festive Package's description has been copied from the Festive Snowflurry Package, apparently also copying an inconsistency: If the box really contained 2 of every rare and legendary type, both the Festive Snowflurry Package and the Fast-Lane version should contain 78 instead of the mentioned 70 cards (16 rare Class A and S parts, 2 rare and 2 legendary Tech, 6 rare and 13 legendary engines = 39 cards, 2 ⋅ 39 = 78).
If the box did not contain Tech cards, the remaining 22 rare and 13 legendary cards would be consistent with the box info (22 ⋅ 2 : 70 = 62,86 %, 13 ⋅ 2 : 70 = 37,14 %), so it is possible that the box contains 2 V12 MPI engines, but no Tech cards.
Trivia
Tips & Tricks
- AI drivers can collect coins and will glow orange if they do so. If the player knocks them down, they will get all the coins they had collected. This doesn't apply to knockdown targets in Knockdown events, where they can still collect coins but do not glow orange.
- Tracks with little to no path variation and short length are recommended to get as many Coins in a single race and complete quests as quickly as possible.
- It is best to use vehicles which have Season 9 races that take place on short tracks (e.g. Mercedes-Benz Silver Lightning in Dubai, McLaren M14A in The London Eye and Koenigsegg One:1 or Porsche Cayman GT4 in San Diego Harbor) to the Career-related quests if the player wants to grind , and achieve those milestones at the same time.
- If the player has the McLaren MP4-31, its 6th race in the McLaren Legends Season can be used for the same purpose.
- The 2018 McLaren X2's Dubai race in the McLaren Legends Season, while being the fastest to complete, is not as profitable as the MP4-31's 6th race.
- The Ducati Monster 1200 and BMW S 1000 RR have races in Barcelona that are useful for doing backflips and wheelies.
- However, Moto Blitz races have an extremely low payout, thus playing Moto Blitz races after completing quests related to it are not recommended.
- The Ducati Monster 1200 and BMW S 1000 RR have races in Barcelona that are useful for doing backflips and wheelies.
- After completing a tokens quest, the player can complete any remaining quests but should only claim the trophies when the next tokens quest starts.
