Last year, D23 had to postpone their Disney fan event, Destination D23. And, though it may be one year later, the event will finally be taking place in Disney World from November 19th through the 21st, 2021! If you’re not familiar with it, this is an opportunity for fans to be among the first to hear exciting announcements about upcoming projects, get behind-the-scenes info, hear from special guests, and more. And, now we’ve got the FULL schedule for this year’s event!

Located at Disney’s Contemporary Resort, the event has already sold out for 2021. But, if you weren’t lucky enough to get a ticket, Destination D23 will also be live-streamed on D23.com and D23 social media channels, so you don’t have to miss out!
