The D23 Expo is just around the corner, and we’re counting down the days until we can check out this year’s Ultimate Disney Fan Event.
Pixar from 2022 D23
From August 14th-16th, D23: The Ultimate Disney Fan Event will take place in Anaheim, California. Disney has shared the schedule for D23, as well as some of the exhibits that will be coming. Now, D23 has shared information on new shopping experiences, new merch, and details on how to shop.
D23 runs from August 14th to August 16th, and, in addition to special panels, celebrity guests, and photo ops, you can also buy exclusive merchandise!

The expo is taking place in Anaheim, California, and Disney has been slowly releasing souvenir collections available at Mickey’s of Glendale, a booth named after the Walt Disney Imagineering campus store. The pieces are made for Imagineers by Imagineers, but at D23, they open it up to anyone attending. Just wait till you see this new collection — we’re obsessed!
2026 has been a major year for the Disney Channel. Between Camp Rock 3, the Hannah Montana 20th Anniversary Special, and the just-announced Cheetah Girls movie, there are so many things to look forward to. But Disney just made another massive Disney Channel announcement that has us screaming!

If you’re a fellow Jonatics, then you’ll be a “sucker” for this news. Disney just announced that the Jonas Brothers will host a panel at D23, Disney’s annual convention!
We have been patiently (okay, not so patiently) awaiting more news on a MAJOR change coming to Disney’s Hollywood Studios.

Disney FINALLY gave us new information about the upcoming Monsters Inc. Land, and we are getting seriously excited about what’s to come. One thing we noticed in their big announcement? A few hints about when we could get MORE major news.
Did you secure the tickets?

Ticket sales for the 2026 D23: The Ultimate Disney Fan Event have officially started, and that means we are getting SO close to walking into D23, checking out all the showcases, and hearing new Disney announcements — WE’RE JUST SO EXCITED!
Every Disney fan is marking down April 2nd on their calendars. But why?

If you consider yourself a pretty major Disney fan, then you’ve probably heard of D23, which is the Ultimate Disney Fan Event. This event is where not only does Disney drop some of their biggest announcements, but you can buy exclusive merchandise, check out special presentations from Disney, and enjoy what it means to be a Disney fan.

Disney just released new ticket details, and we’re getting SO excited.
We hope you’re not forgetting about Disney World’s NEW Villains Land, because we sure haven’t!

When Villains Land at Magic Kingdom was OFFICIALLY announced in 2024 after tons of speculation, Disney fans collectively lost their minds in excitement — and rightfully so. Disney showed us concept art, teased some features the new land might include, got us hyped…and then went extremely quiet about the project. Aside from some proposed designs from Disney Imagineers that might be incorporated into the land, we still don’t know that much more about Villains Land than when it was announced two years ago. So that begs the question…when are we actually going to learn more?
We’re just recovering from Destination D23, which was recently held at Disney’s Coronado Springs Resort in Disney World. These events are the biggest Disney fan events of the year, and we always get a lot of announcements about Disney movies, parks, and more.

At Destination D23, Disney announced that the next big fan event, D23: The Ultimate Disney Fan Experience, would be held August 14th-16th in Anaheim, CA. However, there’s going to be one BIG change at next year’s event: vendors and collectors will not be offered spaces at the event.
2024 is quickly coming to an end before our eyes.

It might come as a shock, but we are already nearly halfway through December. In less than a month, we’ll be counting down to the new year and trying to remember to write 2025 instead of 2024 on anything we’re adding a date to. As we look toward 2025 and the new year of possibilities, it’s also fun to look behind us and reflect on all the good, exciting, and happy things that have passed in 2024. This was an eventful year in the world of Disney, and we want to celebrate some of the best things that happened. So come along with us as we remember all the great announcements, changes, endings, and beginnings for Disney and Disney fans in 2024!
