Disney’s global fan celebration will make its Asia debut in Singapore, bringing major reveals, immersive experiences and exclusive Disney+ previews to the region.
The magic of Disney is heading to Singapore. The Walt Disney Company has announced that D23 Asia: The Ultimate Disney Fan Event will take place in the city in 2027, marking the first time the global fan celebration will be held in Singapore.
The event will bring together Disney fans for a multi-day celebration of storytelling, creativity and fandom. Visitors will be able to enjoy first-look reveals, live stage presentations, immersive experiences, character-led moments and specially curated merchandise, alongside appearances from stars, storytellers and creative talent from Hollywood and around the world.
D23 Asia is part of the global expansion of D23: The Official Disney Fan Club. Launched in 2009, D23 takes its name from the “D” in Disney and 1923, the year Walt Disney opened his first studio in Hollywood. Since then, D23 has grown into Disney’s flagship fan platform, with major events staged in Anaheim, California, and, more recently, Brazil.
“Bringing D23 to Singapore reflects the incredible passion of Disney fans across Asia Pacific and our desire to meet them where they are,” said Asad Ayaz, Chief Marketing and Brand Officer, The Walt Disney Company. “D23 Asia will bring these fans together as a community to celebrate the powerful connection they have with our stories, characters, and experiences, and to get an exciting look at what lies ahead.”
The Singapore edition will be designed specifically for audiences in Asia, while staying true to the large-scale, fan-first format. Disney has also confirmed that D23 Asia will spotlight APAC Originals for Disney+, giving fans the chance to hear directly from the creative teams behind some of the region’s upcoming stories.
Carol Choi, Executive Vice President, Integrated Marketing & APAC Original Strategy, The Walt Disney Company Asia Pacific, added, “Disney has an extraordinary and growing fan base across Asia Pacific and bringing D23 to Singapore marks a natural evolution in our journey to bringing unforgettable fan experiences to audiences across this diverse region in new and meaningful ways. D23 Asia will offer fans a truly distinctive experience, with exclusive previews of our APAC Originals for Disney+ and the opportunity to hear directly from the creative talent behind our shows.”
What Fans Can Look Forward To
Previous D23 editions have become famous for headline-making announcements across Disney, Pixar, Marvel, Star Wars, National Geographic, Disney Parks and Disney+. The Anaheim event has featured major studio presentations, talent appearances, behind-the-scenes showcases, rare archival material, immersive activations, and exclusive merchandise.
D23 Brazil, which marked another major international expansion, brought panels, presentations, performances, show-floor experiences, and exclusive products to São Paulo. That legacy suggests D23 Asia could become one of Singapore’s biggest pop culture events, combining blockbuster reveals with a strong regional focus and a shared sense of Disney nostalgia.
Ms. Jean Ng, Assistant Chief Executive, Experience Development Group, Singapore Tourism Board said, “We are excited to bring D23 to Southeast Asia for the very first time. Together with Disney, we will be creating memorable experiences that resonate with fans across the region and beyond. This milestone further strengthens our partnership and adds to our vibrant and dynamic calendar of events and experiences that positions Singapore as the premier destination for memorable experiences.”
Further details, including dates, venue, ticketing and programming, will be announced at a later stage.
