Where Disney Fans Belong

Made for fans, by fans, D23 is where cosplay creativity, surprise reunions, and pure Disney joy take center stage — from the first sunrise line outside the Anaheim Convention Center to the final cheer at the Honda Center. Our relationship with Disney fans has never been more relevant or powerful, with more ways than ever to engage with the stories and characters they love. This is where fans become part of the story.
