Ready your Mickey ears and prep those Stormtrooper suits, Disney enthusiasts! This weekend, the Anaheim Convention Center is set to host the highly anticipated D23 Expo—Disney’s ultimate fan experience, akin to Comic-Con but entirely devoted to the magic of Disney.
This three-day extravaganza, running from August 9 to August 11, will enchant fans with a rich tapestry of storytelling and innovation that only The Walt Disney Company can provide. It’s a celebration honoring the magical worlds of Marvel, Star Wars, Pixar, and more. Offering a smorgasbord of panels, booths, exclusive merchandise, and groundbreaking announcements, D23 is every Disney aficionado’s dream come true.
On Saturday, don’t miss our live broadcast from D23! CBS News Los Angeles will stream special coverage featuring KCAL entertainment correspondent Suzanne Marques and industry insider Grae Drake. Tune in at noon to catch “CBS News Los Angeles Live From D23” streaming live.
D23, which stands for “Disney” and “1923” (the year Walt Disney founded his legendary company), was established in 2009 as the official fan club for the Walt Disney Company. Membership perks include limited access to special events, exclusive discounts, and offers. Curious about the event? Memberships granting more extensive event access are also available.
