Summary
D23 2024 will be called "The Ultimate Fan Event" and will be bigger and longer, spanning a week in August, with major panels taking place at the Honda Center in Anaheim.
The Disneyland festivities will commence on August 8th, and the parks will remain accessible to the general public. Alongside panels and Disneyland, the event will also feature a Mets game at Angel Stadium. Securing accommodations may pose a challenge due to the involvement of multiple venues.
In order to surpass the success of the D23 2022 Expo, which marked the commemoration of 100 years of Disney, Disney has chosen to take things to the next level, quite literally.
The upcoming D23 event in 2024 will undergo a significant transformation, no longer being referred to as an "Expo", but rather rebranded as "The Ultimate Fan Event". Set to take place from August 9-11, 2024 in Anaheim, this exciting announcement was made earlier today at Destination D23 at Walt Disney World, where Screen Rant has been present. However, it's important to note that this will not be your typical three-day D23 event...
The massive Honda Center will be the new venue for the big panels in the evenings, in order to address the issue of incredibly long lines and guests sleeping in the basement overnight at the Anaheim Convention Center. These panels will showcase must-see presentations, covering a range of Disney-related topics, from Marvel and Pixar to National Geographic and Star Wars.
Furthermore, the D23 festivities will commence on August 8th even earlier this year, with Disneyland appropriately themed for the event. Despite this, the parks will remain open to the general public.
D23 is attending a baseball game as well! The New York Mets will be visiting Angel Stadium in Anaheim, CA on Sunday, August 4, 2024, as part of The Ultimate Fan Event.
Arranging accommodations for the entire event may prove challenging due to the various events taking place at different venues in Anaheim.
Tickets will go on sale next year in the spring.
