Mickey’s of Glendale returns to D23: The Ultimate Disney Fan Event at the Anaheim Convention Center from Friday, August 14 through Sunday, August 16, 2026, with all-new Walt Disney Imagineering-inspired merchandise. The Mickey’s of Glendale Pin Store returns with new limited-edition and exclusive pins each day.
The Walt Disney Company Store is also featuring an all-new HARVEYS collection with one-of-a-kind designs developed from decommissioned seatbelts from Soarin’ Over California.
How does shopping work at the event?
Most of the big stores run on virtual queue. The D23 Marketplace, the D23 Marketplace Pin Store, and The Walt Disney Company PIN Store all use virtual queue throughout the event, with standby opening once every boarding group has been redeemed. The Walt Disney Company Store uses virtual queue on Friday, August 14 only, then goes standby-only for the weekend.
The D23 Marketplace is cashless, with card, contactless payment, and merchandise mobile checkout accepted.
Mickey’s of Glendale and Disney Publishing Books & Brew are cashless. Card and contactless payments only.
Disney Store operates on standby queue, and attendees who walk in the main entrance can scan their badge for a free event-exclusive tote bag or sticker with new character illustrations by Disney Artists, while supplies last.
Can you get the merch if you’re not going?
Yes, some of it. Starting Monday, August 17 at 8 a.m. PST, select merchandise sold at the D23 Marketplace and the Disney Store booth will be available at DisneyStore.com/d23-event/, while supplies last.
Inside the Marketplace itself, Disney is stocking a The Princess Diaries 25th Anniversary Collection, Star Wars must-haves, global Disney Parks Collections, and the return of Disney Fine Art. The new Pin Store has limited-edition and limited release pins with fresh designs debuting Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.
The Walt Disney Company Store carries the official D23 logo collection with collaborations from RSVLTS, Nike, and Loungefly, plus a collection inspired by Walt Disney’s office in Burbank, California, Suite 3H, developed with the Walt Disney Archives.
Shark Take:
If pins are your thing, plan around the virtual queue. The D23 Marketplace Pin Store and The Walt Disney Company PIN Store both use virtual queue all three days, with standby possible after boarding groups are redeemed. New pin designs debut Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, so check the daily catalogue before choosing when to shop.
