Guide: Olaf’s Grand Exhibition (Forgotten Lands) — Dreamlight Valley

Guide: Olaf’s Grand Exhibition (Forgotten Lands) — Dreamlight Valley

I almost walked past Olaf’s new door, convinced it was another cosmetic update. Then I stepped in, and the room swallowed my checklist whole. You’ll feel the same sudden, delicious responsibility the moment you place the first item.

Most museum wings begin with a single label — How to complete Olaf’s Grand Exhibition Forgotten Lands room in Disney Dreamlight Valley

I’ve finished more than one of these museum rooms, and if you play regularly you’ll recognize the rhythm: gather region-exclusive resources, submit them in three stages, reap rewards. I’ll guide you through each podium and tank so you don’t waste days hunting something that only spawns at night. Assembling the exhibit feels like building a stained-glass window one shard at a time, and the checklist becomes a scavenger-hunt map stitched with sticky notes.


At a glance, the left side is where the water lives — All Olaf’s Grand Exhibition Forgotten Lands Aquarium items for Disney Dreamlight Valley

The Aquarium sits on the left. You place Forgotten Lands gems on the podium, then submit fish to the tank behind it. Clear the gems first to open the fish slot; that order matters.

What items do I need to finish the Forgotten Lands room?

Short answer: gems and fish for the Aquarium, flowers and materials for the Diorama, food and Raven Critter Companions for the Habitat. I’ll list every single item below so you can mark them off in your journal.

Where do Forgotten Lands gems and fish spawn?

Gems come from mining rock nodes across the Forgotten Lands; fish appear in the region’s water pools. Use a hoe or pickaxe where necessary, and remember some spawns are time-gated — check dusk and night cycles if something feels absent.

All Forgotten Lands gems

Five gems are mined from rock spots. Place them on the left podium to unlock the tank.

  • Amethyst
  • Shiny Amethyst
  • Diamond
  • Shiny Diamond
  • Onyx

All Forgotten Lands fish

After the gems, submit six fish found in the pools around the region to complete the Aquarium stage.

  • Anglerfish
  • Cod
  • Squid
  • Lancetfish
  • Sole
  • Tuna

In real exhibits, the centerpiece takes the longest — All Olaf’s Grand Exhibition Forgotten Lands Diorama items in Disney Dreamlight Valley

The middle diorama demands the most different resources. You submit five region flowers first, then gather materials for four separate panels. If you want the dioramas quickly, focus on flowers that spawn randomly — patience rewards you.

All Forgotten Lands flowers

There are five flowers that appear across the Forgotten Lands. They spawn unpredictably, so sweep the map at different times to find the rarer colors.

  • Orange Nasturtium
  • Purple Impatiens
  • Red Nasturtium
  • White Impatiens
  • Yellow Nasturtium

All Forgotten Lands Diorama supplies

Once flowers are placed on the podium, the four diorama panels will request specific materials you can find around the region. If you’re using Steam Workshop images, YouTube tutorials, or Discord farms, coordinate runs so materials don’t take forever.

Most habitats show how local life fits together — All Olaf’s Grand Exhibition Forgotten Lands Habitat items in Disney Dreamlight Valley

The Habitat sits on the right. It needs food from the region plus five Raven Companions. Ravens have set schedules; meeting them across days is part of the rhythm.

All Forgotten Lands food

Five food items are required. Some come from bushes and trees, others from seeds you can buy in the region’s stores.

  • Apple
  • Ginger
  • Gooseberry
  • Pumpkin
  • Potato

All Forgotten Lands Critter Companions

Submit five Raven variants to finish the Habitat. Each Raven must be found and befriended through its own schedule—this is where patience pays off.

  • Blue Raven
  • Brown Raven
  • Classic Raven
  • White Raven
  • Red Raven

Every arcade and museum hands out badges — All Olaf’s Grand Exhibition Forgotten Lands room rewards in Disney Dreamlight Valley

Completing each section grants a reward, and finishing the whole room gives a bonus prize. If you collect everything, the haul includes decor and diorama pieces that are otherwise locked to this exhibit.

Stage Reward
Aquarium Forgotten Lands Aquarium
Diorama Four Forgotten Lands Dioramas
Habitat Forgotten Lands Companion Home

If you want to speed up the grind, coordinate with friends on Discord servers, check content creators on YouTube for spawn routes, or consult the official Gameloft patch notes for any spawn changes tied to seasonal updates by Disney.
