D23 2026 Pass Types and Prices

There are six different pass options this year, including a brand-new budget-friendly entry point. Here’s the full breakdown:

D23 Ultimate Preferred Fan Pass (3-Day) — from $1,299

The premium option. You get a reserved floor seat at the Honda Center for all three days (same seat each day) plus full 3-day access to the Anaheim Convention Center. New for 2026: this pass includes special RSP access to select limited-edition pin releases at the event. If you want the full D23 experience with the best seats in the house, this is it.

D23 Ultimate Fan Pass (3-Day) — from $297

Includes a reserved seat at the Honda Center for all three days (same seat each day) plus 3-day access to the Anaheim Convention Center. A great all-in option for dedicated fans who want to catch all three Honda Center showcases.

D23 Ultimate Fan Pass (Single Day) — from $99

Pick your day — Friday, Saturday, or Sunday. You get one reserved seat for the evening Honda Center presentation on your chosen day, plus same-day access to all experiences and shopping at the Anaheim Convention Center.

D23 Fan Pass (3-Day) — $297

Three full days at the Anaheim Convention Center only. No Honda Center access with this pass, but you’ll have plenty to do across all three days at the convention.

D23 Fan Pass (Single Day) — $99

One day at the Anaheim Convention Center only. A solid option if you just want to pop in for one day of shopping, meet-and-greets, and exhibits.

D23 Fan Pass — Afternoon Only (NEW) — $49

This is brand new for 2026 and it’s a great option for those on a tighter budget or who just want to experience the convention vibe. Entry starts at 4pm on your chosen day (Friday, Saturday, or Sunday). Just note: Afternoon Only ticket holders are not eligible for initial RSP reservation selection for panels and experiences.

What’s Happening at the Honda Center?

The Honda Center will host three major showcase events, one per night — but only Ultimate Fan Pass and Ultimate Preferred Fan Pass holders have access:

• Friday, August 14 — Disney Entertainment Showcase
• Saturday, August 15 — Disney Experiences Showcase
• Sunday, August 16 — Disney Legends Ceremony (hosted by Ryan Seacrest)

The D23 Fan Pass covers the Anaheim Convention Center only — no Honda Center access.

What If Tickets Sell Out?

If passes sell out, a waitlist will open for a limited time. A few things to know: submissions are placed in random order (so submitting early doesn’t give you an advantage), and those selected will be notified by May 15 via email and phone. Joining the waitlist does not guarantee tickets, so your best bet is to be ready on April 2.

D23 2026 runs August 14–16 at the Anaheim Convention Center and Honda Center. We’ll be keeping a close eye on all the latest announcements — stay tuned to DisMornings for everything you need to plan your trip.
