This event is known for delivering some of Disney’s biggest news every year, but we already have some huge announcements before D23 has even started!
If you take a look around, you’ll see that Imagineers have all kinds of sweet tributes to the people who helped bring Walt Disney’s vision to life. You may see a window on Main Street, U.S.A. with the name of a Disney Legend. You might spot a handprint on the wall of a Disney World attraction. You might even read the names of some FAMOUS celebrities who made their mark on Hollywood (Studios).
Main Street, U.S.A.
Yeah, Disney has gotten pretty good at honoring those who embody the magic of a brilliant Cast Member. In fact, there’s an entire ceremony happening soon (August 11th, to be exact) to induct over a dozen NEW people into the ultra-exclusive “Disney Legends” group. You’ll probably recognize a lot of the names on the 2024 list, and (if you’re like us) you might even think, “It’s about time we call them a Disney Legend” when you see some of the faces on the list.
Happy D23 Expo to all who celebrate!
D23 Expo
Today kicks off three days of panels, exhibits, news, and more — and we’re here to bring you along on all the fun! One of the very first panels of the day was the Disney Legends Awards Ceremony, where Disney honored 14 legends who made a lasting impact on the company. We got to watch the ceremony, so come with us as we watch these individuals get honored.
Becoming a Disney Legend is one of the highest honors you can achieve in the Walt Disney Company.
D23 2019 Disney Legends Award
Each time the D23 Expo is held, a Legends Ceremony is typically held which often starts off the Expo. During that ceremony, celebrities, Imagineers, and others who have contributed to the Walt Disney Company in special ways are honored with the title of Disney Legend. In the past, some pretty big names have been added to the list, and now we’ve got a look at this year’s inductees!
