Disney has finally revealed plans for its next D23 Expo, revealing that the festival will return in 2022. The bi-annual celebration of all things House of Mouse was last held in August 2019.
Fans has anticipated that the show would return in 2021 but, as per a report from Deadline, the studio has decided to skip 2021 as the world recovers from Covid-19.
The studio encompassing event offers Disney fans booths of memorabilia to purchase, and stars to pen autographs. Of utmost importance to fans are the two film panels which go down at D23 for both animation and live-action. It’s a place where the Avengers cast can always have a reunion, where you can see a rough cut of a Pixar movie two years out, and hear the initial plans for Disney’s slate of features.
The other big wheel in the Disney machine, Star Wars, also holds it’s next celebration event in August 2022.
The 2022 event is set to be Disney’s springboard for laying out plans for its 100th anniversary in, you guessed it, 2023.
