It’s going to be a quick turnaround as the next Celebration is next year – and a return to Anaheim, which is welcome news after Chicago serenaded us with both rain and snow. (Which, if Indianapolis 2005 is any indication, we’ll be hearing about for a while.) We’ve had back-to-back Celebrations before, but usually alternating U.S. and international destinations, so going from domestic to domestic will be interesting.
With no new movie that year, expect Galaxy’s Edge to get a lot of attention – the Anaheim convention center is only moments away from Disneyland. It’ll also be the 40th anniversary of The Empire Strikes Back, and the 15th of Revenge of the Sith. It looks like Reed will be back as well: They’ve already reskinned the website.
(Disney’s own D23 is biannual and the next one is this August, so there won’t be another until 2021.)
No date just yet, which has led to some speculation that it may be later in the year… We’ll find out soon enough, I’m sure.
Yeah, Disney is almost certainly taking the opportunity of no movie releases to sync with to realign Celebration so its biannual schedule alternatea years with D23.
Right.
