Join the D23 Team at the Walt Disney World Resort for a spectacular night of magic and memories!
After checking in at the Magic Kingdom, guests will have free time to enjoy the park's attractions and shows at their own pace. In the evening, attendees will enjoy one of two private dinners inside the Diamond Horseshoe Saloon, where piano music will fill the air and you'll take a look back at D23's first fun-filled year. Awaiting guests will be a mouth-watering buffet dinner of gourmet barbecue offerings, from slow smoked short rib of beef served on mesquite polenta to jalapeno cheddar cheese corn bread and much more!
Following dinner, guests will have the opportunity to enjoy more attractions or view the majestic fireworks spectacular, Wishes. Then, as the Magic Kingdom is closing to the general public, D23 Members and their guests will be escorted into Mickey's PhilharMagic for an exclusive viewing of this 3-D extravaganza, which combines colorful animation and soaring music to create a dazzling spectacle. Afterwards, Walt Disney Imagineering will present insider details about the recently announced Fantasyland Forest expansion project for the Magic Kingdom.
And to cap the night's celebration, guests will partake in a sumptuous dessert buffet in Fantasyland, where they will be able to enjoy a private party with fellow D23 Members, riding several of the park's signature attractions that recall the splendor and nostalgia of some of Walt Disney's most famous animated classics. And at our members' request, guests will mix and mingle with beloved, classic Disney characters, as well as a few friends you may not have seen strolling through the park in a while!
Every guest will also receive a special, limited-edition commemorative pin in honor of D23's first anniversary, the perfect gift to remember this once-in-a-lifetime experience.
