Disney4me Posted August 10 Report Posted August 10 D23: The Ultimate Disney Fan Event is less than one week away, and that means that we’re getting prepared for a weekend FULL of Disney news. ©D23 One of the events we’re looking forward to the most is the D23 Disney Experiences Showcase, which is often where Disney announces some of the biggest news. In the past, we’ve heard tons of major Disney park news at this showcase, as well as other information that shapes Disney trips and vacations for the future, but it’s been a little hard to follow along when you’re not in person. While we’ve still got a few days to go until the actual event, Disney just released new information on what to expect, INCLUDING how you can watch from home WITHOUT a ticket to the event! The event will take place at 7 PM PT on Saturday, August 15th, and is officially called Horizons: A Carousel of Progress. In person, you’ll want to be at the Honda Center to see the announcements happen in person, but if you’re watching from home, you’ll be able to stream it live on Disney+ starting at that same 7 PM PT mark. ©Disney Neil Patrick Harris will be hosting the event, and he’ll be joined by the artists, storytellers, and creative leaders working to bring Disney’s new additions to the next level. We’ll get to see a series of conversations with Walt Disney Imagineering leaders and creative talent, interspersed with high-energy performances, special moments, and Disney magic. Disney has said these conversations will take the audience “on a journey through Disney’s unmatched storytelling legacy, the spirit of adventure at the heart of so many Disney stories, the remarkable creative process anchored by exploration and curiosity, and the bold promise of possibility that has guided Imagineers for more than seven decades.” ©Disney What exactly will we be seeing, though? Are we finally going to get updates on some of the new lands coming to Disney parks? Well, Disney has just revealed that we’ll be getting “project updates, first looks, new artwork and renderings, behind-the-scenes stories, creative insights, and a closer look at how some of Disney Experiences’ most ambitious projects are progressing.” That sounds promising! ©Disney Below is a list of the Imagineers and other creatives we know we’ll get to hear from during the event: Thomas Mazloum, Disney Experiences Chairman Bruce Vaughn, President and Chief Creative Officer, Walt Disney Imagineering Ali Rubinstein, Senior Vice President, Global Creative & Development Studios Michael Hundgen, Vice President Creative, Walt Disney World Emily “Emo” O’Brien, Portfolio Creative Producer, Disneyland Resort and Tokyo Disney Resort Caroline May, Executive Creative Director, Walt Disney World Claire Weiss, Portfolio Creative Director, Disney Cruise Line Brent Strong, Executive Creative Director Chris Beatty, Portfolio Executive Creative Director, Walt Disney World Jason Grandt, Executive Creative Director, Walt Disney World ©Disney Not only will we be at the event in person to bring you all the latest news, but we’ll also be watching from home to make sure we don’t miss a single second.
