We cannot wait to see all that the weekend (which will take place in Anaheim, CA from August 23-25, 2019) has in store, especially after D23’s latest announcement for the Expo!
A few weeks ago, D23 shared a list of films that would hit the big screen by 2027. One of the films on the list bore no title and was labeled as an untitled Pixar animation. (I know you’re dying to see it, so check out the list of films here, but remember to come back and keep reading!)

Well, lucky us, Disney shared the title of the new film Soul and a little more information on what we can expect from the storyline!
What’s better than skating around a roller rink like it’s 1979? How about skating with MICKEY MOUSE himself?!
Mickey & Minnie Mouse!
On June 13th, D23 members joined Mickey and Minnie at Moonlight Rollerway in Glendale, California to commemorate the 40th anniversary of the “Mickey Mouse Disco” album! (“He’ll always bring down the house! Disco Mickey Mouse!”)

For those who don’t know, the D23 Expo is an annual gathering of the Official Disney Fan Club. This event also typically serves as a time for Disney executives to make major announcements regarding upcoming films, theme park attractions, and more. It’s safe to say we’re impatiently waiting for August 23 to get here — we can’t wait to hear what’s in the pipeline for Disney!
The exciting Expo events listed below will all take place in “Hall D23,” located in Hall D of the Anaheim Convention Center. Additional events will be announced in the coming weeks.
Disney has released a few details about what’s to come at the 2019 D23 Expo which will take place in Anaheim from August 23rd – 25th and will include an information release involving Epcot’s transformation.

The transformation of Epcot has already begun in earnest with construction of the Guardians of the Galaxy ride to the space-themed restaurant opening later this year (to name only two of several new eateries and attractions coming to the park). And of course, that’s not all that’s happening at Epcot.
Yesterday, the Disney Parks Blog released two images published in the Gold Member-exclusive D23 Magazine! These images give fans a peek inside Disneyland’s Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge as it nears its grand opening in just a few weeks!

The summer edition of D23 Magazine features a stunning photo of Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run, the first major attraction operating in Galaxy’s Edge. [Read more…]
Back in July at the D23 conference, Disney World’s newest form of transportation was announced: the Skyliner, a gondola connecting Epcot and Hollywood Studios with several Disney resorts. Since then, we’ve been daydreaming about flying between resorts and parks, taking in the views from above. And now we have some new details to pore over — plus some exciting concept art — courtesy of the Disney Parks Blog!
