We do know when festive fish are coming, however, and how you'll get them, so we've put everything we know about how to get festive fish in Disney Dreamlight Valley below.

When are festive fish coming to Disney Dreamlight Valley?

Thanks to the brave player u/ValleyBilz on the DreamlightValley subreddit setting their system clock forward we know that festive fish are coming to Disney Dreamlight Valley on Sunday, 18th December.

It can be a little annoying when a villager asks for a festive fish as a gift right now, but we strongly advise that you don't time travel by jumping your system clock forward to get the festive fish. This can mess with your game save when you set it back, like not spawning resources.
