The everything-Disney mega convention D23 is this weekend in Anaheim, California, and if you can’t be there in person, Disney is giving everyone a huge gift. The company just announced that it’ll stream several of the convention’s biggest panels, including one about what’s in store at all its theme parks.
That panel is called Horizons: A Carousel of Progress, and it will focus on Disney announcing news and updates on everything in its “Experiences” portfolio. That means theme parks, that means cruises, that means whatever else Disney has up its sleeve. It’s hosted by Neil Patrick Harris and will be broadcast live from the Honda Center in Anaheim, CA, on Saturday, August 15, at 7 p.m. PT / 10 p.m. ET on Disney+. The last such panel, at D23 in 2024, broke the news of some massive upcoming projects such as a Monsters Inc. roller coaster and Villains Land at Walt Disney World in Orlando, FL, as well as new Avengers and Avatar additions at the Disneyland Resort in Anaheim, CA. Now, according to the press release, “many of those projects are no longer concepts on a screen. They’re being designed, engineered, built, tested, and brought to life by teams across the globe. And that’s exactly what Horizons: A Carousel of Progress will be all about.” “Fans can expect 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,” the post continues. “We’re pulling back the curtain on the work, collaboration, and imagination of many of the experiences in development that Disney fans are eagerly following.”
