It’s almost time for D23: The Ultimate Disney Fan Event, but before we get too excited, we have to celebrate D23 Day!
It’s D23 Day!
D23 Day is TODAY, and it’s brought so many exciting new offerings to Disneyland, Disney California Adventure, and Downtown Disney. Here’s why you need to RUN to Disney for this one-day-only celebration!
When we scanned into Disneyland this morning, we were greeted by Disney Cast Members who were giving out this snazzy D23 guidebook with all of the fun activities just for today.
We have our map at the ready!
And we also got a completely free pair of Mouse Ears, made just for D23 Day! These little guys are a black Mickey Ear hat with teal ears and trim, plus an embroidered D23 Day at Disneyland Resort patch featuring Sleeping Beauty Castle under a bright sun with dozens of fireworks.
So cute, and 100% free!
The D23 Day sign is up again, and this makes for a colorful backdrop to commemorate your D23 Day!
SUCH a cute spot for photos!
We also got to see the brand-new Sorcerer’s Apprentice Mickey Mouse balloon coming to the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade! This is the first new balloon announced for the 2026 Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade this November, and there’s likely more to come with an announcement at D23 this weekend!
Check it out!
Disney is also giving out these super cute Disney x Macy’s 100th Parade buttons featuring the Sorcerer Mickey balloon to celebrate the big reveal! Super cute, and again, 100% free if you go to Disneyland for D23 Day!
SO cool!
You can catch the Disney Legends Cavalcade at 1:30, which features 23 iconic Disney characters as they make their way down Main Street, U.S.A., along with the Disneyland Band and select Disney Legends, celebrities recognized for the unique and impactful legacies they have created at Disney.
So many Disney Legends!
We’re so excited to have even more fun at D23 Day today. Stay tuned to Disney Food Blog for more Disney news!
