2026 D23 Ultimate Disney Fan Event in Anaheim - August 14-16

One thing that disney could capitalize which failed at sdcc was a movie premiere. Since everyone has assigned seats at Honda center it wouldn't cause issues of verifying tickets which took the longest time. Also with assigned seats you know your guaranteed a spot not like how sdcc it was a free for all and they definitely had empty seats in certain areas. Legends will be hit or miss on the crowds with panel so they could do something in place of it.

Did the bus take forever both there and back? It did not look like that much fun lol. I was glad we had a car.

Agree with you on the giveaways, but that was never a huge draw for me.

We stayed at one of the hotels that had the ART line to the Honda center. It was as really convenient. Had to walk through the crowds to get to the stop after it ended, but it was easy peezy once you got there.

Isn't Gold free for Disney + now? If so, that probably dilutes things.

Last year was the first time in forever that I attended D23. Here is one of the threads. I think @soniam is the master of tickets.

I haven’t been so lucky with Destination D. This was only the 2nd time I could get tickets. Usually there are at least 2 of us trying for Expo, if not a large group.

I actually don’t think I’m going next year or to the next Destination D. I think I need a break. Plus there are so many other vacations I want to take.
