Get ready for an unforgettable experience, Disney enthusiasts! This August, the House of Mouse is rolling out the red carpet in Anaheim for D23: The Ultimate Disney Fan Event. Formerly known as the D23 Expo, this multi-day spectacle promises to celebrate the very best of Disney’s storytelling and innovation, completely revamped to be more expansive and immersive than ever.
From August 9-11, thousands of Disney fans will gather for an extraordinary event headlined by three major showcases: the Disney Entertainment Showcase, Disney Experiences Showcase, and the Disney Legends Ceremony, all taking place at the Honda Center. Brace yourself for a star-studded Disney Entertainment Showcase with exclusive previews of upcoming films, series, and stage shows. The Disney Experiences Showcase will follow with insights into new and highly anticipated projects across Disney parks and beyond, culminating in the Disney Legends Ceremony, hosted by Ryan Seacrest, where the 2024 class of Disney Legends will be honored.
This year’s event boasts the largest show floor in its history at the Anaheim Convention Center, featuring over 55 panels and presentations. Fans can immerse themselves in pavilions from Disney Animation Studios, Pixar, Marvel, Lucasfilm, and more. For the first time, attendees will be able to shop at The Walt Disney Company Store. Plus, the Walt Disney Archives will present an exclusive exhibit, “A Great Big Beautiful Car Show,” highlighting Disney’s rich history in automotive design.
Marvel fans, take note! Following Marvel Studios’ exciting Hall H showcase at San Diego Comic-Con, more revelations are expected at D23. With hotly anticipated projects like “Captain America: Brave New World,” “Thunderbolts,” and “The Fantastic Four: First Steps” on the horizon, who knows what surprises await?
Unfortunately, the 2024 event is already sold out, but don’t worry if you missed out on tickets. You can still soak up all the news and excitement online.
