BURBANK,
Calif. – March 28, 2016 – All the magic and excitement of the past,
present, and future of Disney entertainment will come together once
again when
D23: The Official Disney Fan Club presents
D23 Expo 2017 at the Anaheim Convention Center the weekend of July 14–16.
Each of Disney’s magical worlds will unite under one roof to celebrate
what’s new and what’s on the horizon from theme parks, television,
music, gaming, and films, including Pixar,
Star Wars, and Marvel.
Highlights
planned for D23 Expo include the Disney Legends Ceremony, which honors
the talented men and women who have made significant contributions to
the Disney legacy; an all-new exhibit
curated by the Walt Disney Archives; D23 Expo’s costume contest, Mousequerade, showcasing the most creative designs by fans;
the D23 Expo Emporium, where Disney fans can buy, sell, and trade
Disney collectibles, memorabilia, merchandise, and more; and the D23
Expo Design Challenge. (Details on the Design Challenge and
Mousequerade will be forthcoming.)
The
2017 Expo will feature a massive show floor full of immersive
experiences and special opportunities to see what’s next for Disney
around the world—and guests may run into their favorite
Disney stars, characters, Imagineers, animators, and filmmakers.
StagePass, the popular ticket distribution system that allows attendees
to obtain guaranteed seats for some of Expo’s most popular
presentations, and StorePass, which allows priority entry to
select shopping venues at the event, will once again enhance the guest
experience. Hall D23, the popular presentation and performance venue
featuring more than 7,000 seats, will return, as will Stage 23, Stage
28, and Center Stage.
The fifth event follows the success of
D23 Expo 2015, which
drew tens of thousands of Disney fans for three star-studded days and
nights. Guests were treated to appearances by such celebrities as Johnny
Depp, Harrison Ford, Ellen DeGeneres, Chris Evans, Ginnifer
Goodwin, and Dwayne Johnson and watched performances by Ne-Yo, Sabrina
Carpenter, the cast of
Teen Beach 2 and stars of Disney’s shows on Broadway. Guests previewed costumes from
Star Wars: The Force Awakens and were the first to hear about the new Star Wars-themed
lands coming to Disneyland and Walt Disney World Resorts. They also
enjoyed a look back at Disney’s rich history through extraordinary
panels, presentations,
and exhibits and discovered the newest entertainment, technology, and
products coming from Disney.
