Disney’s Biggest Fan Celebration Is Heading to Asia in 2027

The magic of D23 is getting even bigger — and this time Disney is heading to Asia.

As Disney continues to bring together generations of fans around the characters, stories and worlds that have become part of their lives, the company is expanding one of its biggest fan celebrations into another major global market.

For the first time, D23: The Ultimate Disney Fan Event is heading to Asia.

Disney has announced D23 Asia, an all-new three-day fan event taking place at Singapore’s Marina Bay Sands from June 25-27, 2027.

And for Disney fans across the Asia-Pacific region, this could open the door to something much bigger.

Over the years, D23 has become one of Disney’s biggest stages for celebrating everything under the company’s massive umbrella. From Disney Animation and Pixar to Disney+, consumer products and the company’s larger entertainment landscape, the event has become just as much about looking toward what’s coming next as it is celebrating the stories fans already love.

Now Disney is taking that experience farther around the world.

D23 Asia will take over portions of the Sands Expo & Convention Centre at Marina Bay Sands, bringing together fans for immersive experiences, exclusive showcases, entertainment, shopping, special announcements and more.

While Disney isn’t ready to pull back the curtain on exactly what programming will be waiting for fans, the company promises that the Singapore event will retain the massive, fan-first feeling associated with its D23 celebrations while creating an experience specifically for its Asian audience.

That last part could make D23 Asia particularly interesting.

Disney has a massive presence throughout Asia, with generations of fans embracing everything from the company’s animated classics and Disney Princesses to Marvel, Pixar and other major franchises. The region is also home to some of Disney’s biggest international destinations, including Tokyo Disney Resort, Hong Kong Disneyland Resort and Shanghai Disney Resort.

Giving D23 a permanent major event within the region creates another opportunity to speak directly to those audiences rather than making every major fan moment centered around the United States.

And it raises a rather exciting question: what could Disney choose to showcase there?

D23 events have increasingly become places for Disney to reveal new projects, offer first looks and bring talent directly in front of fans. A dedicated Asian event could create opportunities to spotlight projects, partnerships, merchandise and experiences with particular importance to audiences throughout the region — while still bringing along the massive global Disney franchises everyone knows.

It is also another sign of how much D23 itself has grown.

What began as Disney’s official fan club has evolved into a much larger celebration of the company’s entire storytelling ecosystem. Taking its flagship experience into Singapore gives Disney another major international stage where fans can gather together rather than simply watching the announcements unfold online from thousands of miles away.

And this is only the beginning.

Tickets for the inaugural D23 Asia: The Ultimate Disney Fan Event are expected to go on sale this November, with additional programming and event details still to come.

So pack those mouse ears.

Because in June 2027, Disney’s ultimate fan celebration is officially bringing a little more magic to Asia.
