Ticket Options:

• D23 is taking steps to make this year's event more accessible than ever before by expanding show floor hours and adding a new D23 Fan Pass – Afternoon Only ticket, offering later day entry to the Anaheim Convention Center.
• Ticket options span a range of experiences, including:
  • D23 Fan Pass (Anaheim Convention Center only), available for $49 (Afternoon Only), $99 (1‑Day), or $297 (3‑Day)

• Each ticket is subject to a $11.25 service fee, and each transaction is subject to a $16 delivery fee.
• D23 Gold Members who are unable to purchase tickets may join a limited-time waitlist after ticket sales close. Due to limited availability, tickets are not guaranteed.

What to Expect:

• While a full schedule hasn’t been announced yet, it is likely fans will also be able to add on tickets to larger panels upon check out. 
• The parks panel was held at Honda Center back in 2024, which is usually one of the more popular events during the convention. 
• Make sure you prioritize which panels you’d like to attend. 
• D23: The Ultimate Disney Fan Event will most likely be filled with parks announcements, especially with several large projects heading to the Disneyland Resort in the coming years. 
• Will we see more info about the upcoming Avatar expansion, the new Coco boat ride, and the two new Avengers Campus rides or entirely new announcements? 
• We won’t know for sure until August, but don’t miss out on having the chance to be in the room when it is revealed!
