Disney's Next D23 Expo Delayed To 2022 | Screen Rant

D23 Expo, Disney's biennial fan convention in Anaheim, CA, has been delayed until 2022. The convention usually takes place during odd-numbered years, with Destination D, a smaller but similar gathering in Orlando, FL, taking place during even-numbered years. The event usually features sneak peeks at upcoming Disney projects, panels and talks given by celebrities and artists, and exclusive merchandise. It also hosts the Disney Legends Awards Ceremony, during which standout contributors to the Disney legacy are honored.

Originally, D23 Expo was supposed to take place in 2021, but Disney announced on Twitter today that it would be delayed until September 9-11, 2022. To help cushion the blow, though, they added a small teaser about what fans can expect from D23 Expo 2022. According to the tweet, "D23 Expo will be a celebration unlike any other, as we give fans a first look at the incredible plans for the 100th anniversary of The Walt Disney Company." Disney's 100th anniversary will take place in 2023, so fans at the convention will get a preview of the undoubtedly huge plans Disney has for the momentous year.

Back in June, Disney announced that Destination D, which was supposed to take place in November 2020, had been delayed to 2021. Given Disney's usual schedule of holding only one convention per year, it makes sense that D23 Expo was pushed back to 2022. Holding both Destination D and D23 Expo in 2021 would have made both events lackluster since all the content that would usually be reserved for just one convention would be spread out over two instead. Ultimately, while D23 Expo being postponed is disappointing, it'll be better for fans in the long run.
