Can you believe the D23 Expo is a month away?
Tickets for the event are sold out, so if you’ve got your ticket, consider yourself lucky! There is so much to see at this year’s expo, including some pretty epic merchandise. But shopping at this event will require some skill. Not to worry though, we’re here to walk you through how to master D23 Expo shopping!
At this year’s Expo, fans will be able to buy products celebrating Disney100, as well as other limited-edition and never-before-seen items from Disney, Pixar, Marvel, Star Wars, and more. Mobile checkouts and virtual queues will be used, so the ultimate key here is to first download the D23 Expo 2022 AND Disneyland apps.
Joining A Virtual Queue
Virtual queues will be available at D23 Expo Marketplace, D23 Expo Marketplace – 3rd Floor Limited Edition Annex, Mickey’s of Glendale Main Store, Mickey’s of Glendale Pin Store, Mickey’s of Glendale x D23 Expo Shop, and Disney Studio Store Hollywood.
- First, open the D23 app when you’re at the merchandise location, or scan the QR code.
- Tap the “Join Virtual Queue” button. Guests can request to join the D23 Expo virtual queue at 6AM or 1PM PT
- You will be navigated to the Disneyland Resort app, where you will be prompted to log in if you haven’t already. Select the number of guests (guests may join for up to two people and may only join one queue at a time) and tap “Join Virtual Queue.”
- You will be given an estimated wait time on your screen and can enjoy other D23 offerings while you wait. When it’s your time to shop, you’ll receive a push notification to head to the store.
Mobile Checkout
Mobile checkout can be experienced at the D23 Expo Marketplace, D23 Expo Marketplace – 3rd Floor Limited Edition Annex, Mickey’s of Glendale Main Store, and D23 Expo Shop x Mickey’s of Glendale. Sign into your Disney account using the Disneyland app, and scan the barcodes on your items and click check out. You can pay for your items using Apple Pay, Credit Card, Debit Card, Disney Gift Cards, and Disney Reward Redemption Cards. Show your confirmation QR code and your items to a cast member before you leave the store, and you’re good to go!
Don’t forget to use the D23 Expo app to help create your schedule too! There are so many panels and presentations you won’t want to miss, from Marvel, to trivia games with Disney stars, a Disney Broadway virtual reality experience, and so much more. Stay tuned to DFB and we’ll be sure to keep you updated on all the latest D23 news!
