Overview

  • Destination D23 will run August 29–31 at Disney’s Coronado Springs Resort, and its complete panel schedule is now live in the D23 app for the sold-out event.
  • Unlike previous editions, this year’s lineup does not include a dedicated parks keynote led by Disney Experiences chairman Josh D’Amaro.
  • The Disney Villains: Icons of Evil panel, described as covering “new projects and attractions,” has emerged as the top contender for park-related reveals, especially updates on Villains Land at Magic Kingdom.
  • The weekend emphasizes archival and studio content—including panels from the Walt Disney Archives, Walt Disney Studios Showcase, and Disney on Broadway—rather than multi-project theme park announcements.
  • Disney has yet to confirm livestreaming or the timing of any major reveals, leaving fans reliant on selective sessions and official social channels for potential updates.
