It’s obviously optimistic–if even half of this ends up coming to fruition, I’ll be very happy. That’s the animating assumption of this post, which is part predictions and part personal wish list for what’ll be announced. With that project cycle now wrapping up, the time is right to share what’s in store for the next development phase. The last time that really occurred was the 2017 D23 Expo, which revealed a huge slate of additions, most of which have now come to fruition. With that said, a big slate of announcements would actually make some degree of sense. As a matter of self-preservation, few fans seem to be getting their hopes up about 2022 D23 Expo news… While the occasional morsels of good news has been peppered in the mix, that’s been the exception rather than the rule. In the last two years, fans have been beaten down by a barrage of bad news–delays, nickel & diming, modifications, cutbacks, and upcharges. Others are still happening, but are taking forever to be built.īeyond that, there’s also the issue of consumer sentiment. Many projects were delayed indefinitely or quietly cancelled. Understandably so, as many had their hopes and excitement dashed not long after the last convention when the parks closed. Walt Disney World and Disneyland fans are muted as compared with the previous two D23 Expos. Rumors and wishful thinking are starting to swirl about what new attractions are on the horizon, with speculation about overhauls and expansion various lands and parks. With the 2022 D23 Expo now just under 3 months away, Walt Disney World and Disneyland fans are anxiously awaiting announcements for the parks’ next phase of growth.
