D23 Day 2026 at the Disneyland Resort is bringing a bunch of festivities to the Happiest Place on Earth including a one-day-only Disney Legends + character cavalcade as the Anaheim Convention Center next door puts finishing touches in place for the start tomorrow’s D23: The Ultimate Disney Fan Event.

Here’s a look at the Disneyland cavalcade for the D23 Day at the Disneyland Resort pre-party for the 2026 D23: The Ultimate Disney Fan Event.

The Celebratory D23 Cavalcade stepped off at 1:30 PM from “it’s a small world” with the Disneyland Band and a menagerie of 23 different Disney characters accompanying a select number of Disney Legends. Notable Disney Legends that we spotted included Kim Irvine, Eric Goldberg, Ming-Na Wen, Jodi Benson, Susan Egan, Linda Larkin, Mark Henn, Robert Coltrin, Tony Baxter, Floyd nlNorman, Joe Rohde, and Wing T. Chao.

There’s no special ticket needed for D23 Day, if you have a park reservation and valid admission, you have access to all of the D23 Day offerings going on across the whole Resort.
