I have some ridiculously exciting news that I can't keep under wraps any longer...
I'm Headed to the D23 Expo 2015 in Anaheim!
As a total Disneyphile, the D23 Expo has been on my bucket list since it first debuted in 2009 — it truly is the ULTIMATE Disney fan event! I was actually supposed to attend in 2011, but a crummy surgery got in the way. But as of now, my flights are booked, my bags are packed and if all goes as planned I'll be in Anaheim, California from August 14-16 for three days of nonstop fun! I can't tell you how excited I am!!
My schedule is jam-packed with incredible panels, presentations and sneak peeks, including upcoming films from The Walt Disney Studios and Marvel Studios, updates from Disney Parks and Resorts, new Disney merchandise and more!
And in true Disney fashion, I have a surprise...
I'm Disneybounding!
For the first time (in forever?), I'll be Disneybounding as one of my favorite Disney characters— Ariel! If you're unfamiliar, Disneybounding is a form a cosplay where you dress as a character through everyday clothing, rather than costumes. Here's a preview:
And finally...
I'm Going to Disneyland!
Disneyland is celebrating their Diamond Celebration this year and I'm ECSTATIC to be a part of it! This will be my second visit to Disneyland and California Adventure and I'll have two evenings to explore both parks, with a special CINDERELLA dinner at Carthay Circle thrown in!
You can follow my CALIFORNIA Disney adventure on Twitter & Instagram with hashtags #D23Expo and #Disneyland60 — I promise it's going to be an AMAZING!!
Special thanks to Walt Disney Studios for providing travel and accommodations to the D23 Expo in Anaheim.
