D23: The Ultimate Disney Fan Event 8/9/24-8/11/24 **Tickets on sale 3/26** **Sold Out on 3/29**

Anyone know where D23 2025 will be held ?

Unless something changes, D23 is every two years so the next one will be in 2026 and will most likely be in the same Anaheim Convention Ctr.

There is apparently a D23 Brazil in November this year? And then every other year (so 2025) there’s a Destination D23 near Walt Disney World.

The World's Fair panel was so good. They brought out Kevin Feige, Jon Favreau, and Michael Giacchino as special guests, plus a really nice clip of Richard Sherman working on the Stark Expo theme from Iron Man 2.

I enjoyed this more than the event last night tbh! Best one so far! I filmed the videos also they were such a joy.

Yes. I purchased it yesterday morning first thing - he had been signing everyone in front of me but they cut it when it was my turn. I guess the queue for buying was getting too long and they needed me out of the way. I really am having terrible luck this weekend… ^^; They said to come back when it wasn’t so busy but it was always busy… I carried it all day just in case. I was in a panel during the signing window so I brought it back today and ran there first thing. They cut the line right after me this time.

What is this Hallmark thing? Just curious since a few folks have mentioned it.

What usually happens at the Legends ceremony? I’m not sure I want to go to butt-numb-a-thon-3 that afternoon especially since it’s so early.

And do we know if it gets put on YouTube later so I can watch it there? I know the other panels don’t (or at least not in full) but Legends?

They have an event only ornament (just a repainting of one they’ve done before but it’s new to me) & the artist is here as well to sign them. It’s a little piano ornament that plays music and the Mickey & Minnie dance. Every year my mom goes nuts with ornaments… whether we want them or not, so I know it’ll be her jam. She seriously has given us 2-3 per person since practically when I was born. My tree is begging her to stop but her Christmas force cannot be tempered.

They’re putting it on Disney+ on Monday.

I’ve not been to one before but I’ve heard each shows clips of their career and then gets 90 seconds to make a speech. I expect it will go way way way longer than it should ala most award ceremonies.

Really hope to see this on YouTube later

Guess I missed out on World’s Fair will have to watch recordings later. But my Grey’s fandom cools. Or be denied. And they had 7 cast members there so that was great.

Thank you. Sounds like a definite skip then. I’ll watch it on Disney+. Too much time away from the show floor and other things for something like that.

Anyone get 1pm VQs? I tried for D23 Marketplace and did what I usually did and clicked refresh incessantly and then twice instantly but everything was gone already. Wondering if I paused a beat too long on the second click since I was in a panel.

 

[AquaDame]

I think a lot of people aren’t bothering with 1pm pins since the line takes too long which made that one harder to get.

Makes sense. I’m not even sure if I’ll want anything there but I’ve hit most everything else. Almost in MoG through standby, about a 45 minute wait it seems like. If everything is still here from earlier photos, please bid a fond farewell to the rest of my money.

I did the same for the same and had the same result.

Guy sitting next to me in the panel got into a pin VQ without trouble.

Sounds like perhaps D23 Marketplace didn’t have many/any VQs to grant then. I’m realizing that I probably put it off for too long. Didn’t realize there were pins at D23 Marketplace because they didn’t seem to have daily releases. I’m guessing they are all gone by now. Going to suck if I can’t get any boarding group at all into the Marketplace tomorrow.

The gentleman sitting in front of me recorded the whole panel so hopefully it will be online later.

I got the Hollywood studio store. It was a backup group but I already got called and went in. I did marketplace this morning before the worlds fair panel.

Just got a push notification that the MOG pin store is now accepting standby currently.

 

[brightlined]

FYI - both MOGs are currently standby

 

[dina444444]

Also just got a push notification that Disney studio store Hollywood is also on standby now.

How bad is the line for the main store? I was thinking of heading back depending on how long the marvel TVA line takes before I have to leave to go to the Honda center.
