Where to find The Haunted Floating Festival event in Disney Dreamlight Valley
The Haunted Floating Festival takes place on a special, seasonal floating island in the sky. While all other events take place around the main village in DDV, this one is exclusive to a special event setting that’s only available to visit for a limited time. Since you can’t fully fly, getting to this island requires a bit of Dreamlight Magic.
How to travel to The Haunted Floating Festival event in Disney Dreamlight Valley
There are two ways to access The Haunted Floating Festival island in DDV:
- The first and generally easiest method is navigating to the Event tab, selecting The Haunted Floating Festival section, and choosing the “Teleport” option near the upper middle section of the screen. You can use this option pretty much anywhere, making it easy to quickly travel to the island as needed.
- The second method is visiting the Plaza biome, walking over to the central square area with the wishing well, and traveling through the portal. You must be in the Plaza to use this method, so it’s generally not as easily accessible. There are also two different portals in the Plaza, so ensuring you choose the right one can be tough. The event portal is located near the southeast end of the area, closest to the ramp that leads up to the Forest of Valor. The other portal takes you to The Forgotten’s home, the Dark Castle.
Since there are many puzzles featured in this event, you’ll need to travel back to The Haunted Floating Festival island frequently. Some puzzles even require you to return daily, so be sure to check back often to ensure you don’t miss out on any event prizes.
How long is The Haunted Floating Festival island available in Disney Dreamlight Valley?
The Haunted Floating Festival event island is available for you to visit from Oct. 22 to Nov. 11. Once the event ends, the portal leading to this special area will vanish, and you’ll be unable to travel there anymore.
All other seasonal events return on an annual basis, so it’s likely this one will be added to the rotation too, but we won’t know for sure until October 2026. It’s best to focus on getting everything done this year, just in case.
The Haunted Floating Festival event isn’t the only spooky activity you can enjoy on the island. The annual Trick-or-Treat event is also running, with plenty of special tasks to work on, like the Haunted Well puzzle and Sugar Rush. The Witchful Thinking Star Path is also active, giving you plenty to work on alongside this event.
