Olaf’s idea to celebrate everything special in Disney Dreamlight Valley’s original biomes is coming to life with the installation of the Grand Exhibition building. Each biome has its own flora and fauna to showcase.

To fill up the Grand Exhibition building, though, Olaf will need your help. Collect necessary items to turn the empty Grand Exhibition building into a proper display of valley memories.
