✨ The Parks Floating Festival is currently available in Disney Dreamlight Valley, but not for much longer! The event comes to a wrap on September 8, so there’s only a little time left to complete everything.
This event invites you to a new floating island, which you can access through the portal in the Plaza (or via the Fast Travel menu), and features 6 limited-time puzzles to complete, with each completed puzzle rewarding you with an event-exclusive item.
The event started on August 19, however, there were only 2 puzzles available to complete when it first began, with 2 additional puzzles unlocking each week on August 26 and September 2. With all six puzzles now available to complete, be sure to finish everything before the island floats away! As this is the first time this event has appeared, I'm unsure if these rewards will be made available next year if and when the event returns. Read on to see how to complete each one.

What I'm enjoying most about these newly added events to Dreamlight Valley is that the floating festivals take place outside of the Valley, causing no disruption to gameplay, including the spawning of event items that may be required during each event. It's also exciting to explore a new area of the game, especially when trying to locate where each new puzzle is.
While each puzzle was a little too easy to complete in my opinion, I can appreciate having something to do in the game and working towards collecting all of the event rewards. I really loved that all of the items for this event were furniture items and that they were themed so well. Adding 2 puzzles each week also helped to pace out the event, without feeling overwhelmed or getting that sense of "must complete all puzzles today" type of feeling.
