D23 Expo Dates Released + Ticket Sales
Disney released the D23 Expo dates and information about ticket sales. If you don’t know what D23 Expo is or what D23 is, it’s okay. We’ve got the answers! I had the amazing opportunity to attend last year, make sure to read all about my D23 experience!

D23 Expo
First things first, D23 Expo is a Disney convention that happens every other year. D23 Expo “The Ultimate Disney Fan Event” has that title for a reason. To put things in perspective, it’s like Comic-Con for Disney. Fans and celebrities gather together. There’s cosplay, panels, and previews for movies, TV show, and Disney Park updates. There are even daily parades! Animators have been known to show up at D23 Expo along with Disney legends. Directors and Imagineers also grace the stages of panels and roam the venues. Then there’s the exhibit hall that’s full of Expo-only merch. And that’s only a portion of all the amazing things you can find at D23!
If you’re a fan of Disney, Pixar, Marvel, Star Wars, or anything Disney, D23 is something you don’t want to miss.
The Expo takes place next year in Anaheim, California from August 23-25, and marks D23’s sixth expo. Tickets for this D23 Expo 2019 go on sale August 23, 2018, on D23Expo.com. D23 Gold members get early access and special purchasing opportunities. So what’s a D23 membership?

D23 Membership
If you’re a Disney fan, D23 membership is something you’ll want to consider whether you choose general or gold. D23 is Disney’s official fan club. It’s completely free to join as a general member. Membership lasts one year, but it’s easy to renew. The general membership gets you access to the D23 site, a weekly newsletter, and special promotions and discounts. If you’re interested in something a bit more special, the paid membership is the way to go.
D23 Gold and D23 Gold Family are basically the same things, with D23 Gold Family allowing you to bring more than one person with you to D23 events. A gold membership gets you a gift, a quarterly magazine subscription to Disney twenty-three, access to special member events, a membership card and certificate, and exclusive merch. Fans agree that the pages of Disney twenty-three magazine and it’s content are what make D23 Gold membership even more magical.
