D23 was nice enough to share the 2017 D23 Expo Entrance Locations, Advance Lineup procedures, and new Security Policy with us to pass on to you! Please note that this year's D23 Expo will in fact have a security screening policy with bag check and metal detectors so please make sure you take this into account when packing your bag and designing your costumes!
SECURITY CONSIDERATION
To ensure the safety of event attendees, all
Guests will be required to go through a security screening process at
the entrance of the event, including bag check and metal detection.
Please allow ample time when planning your arrival.
ENTRANCE LOCATIONS
Entry for the Show Floor and all stages is through the Anaheim Convention Center lobby. Upon arrival, follow signs and event staff directions for entry.
ADVANCE LINEUPS
Advance lineups for access to the Show Floor and Hall D23 (all Guests) will take place the evening prior to Friday, July 14 and Saturday, July 15. No overnight lineups will take place the evening prior to Sunday, July 16.
For Friday, July 14, lineups will begin on Thursday, July 13 at 10 p.m. For Saturday, July 15, lineups will begin on Friday, July 14 at 10 p.m. Upon arrival at the Anaheim Convention Center, please refer to signs and event staff members to direct you to the correct entrance for overnight or early morning queues.
For Sunday, July 16, the Show Floor and Hall D23 lineups will begin no earlier than 6 a.m. at the Grand Plaza area of the Anaheim Convention Center. To attend the presentations in Hall D23, enter through the main lobby and follow signs and event staff directions to the queue in Hall E.
Please do not bring anything that cannot easily be stored in a backpack or smaller-size bag since there is no place to store/check items until the Show Floor opens. Please do not leave items unattended. A concession stand offering a limited menu will be open in Hall E for your convenience. No re-entry is allowed, and all members of your party must be present (no holding space in line for others to join later).
HALL D23
The Hall D23 queue is located in Hall E at the south end of the convention center. To attend the presentations in Hall D23, enter through the main lobby and follow signs and event staff directions to the queue in Hall E. Recording devices will not be allowed at select Hall D23 presentations. An option to secure your camera or smart phone will be available for those presentations. Please check D23Expo.com or the D23 Expo mobile app for the most up-to-date information. The D23 Expo mobile app will be available just before the Expo in the iTunes and Google Play Stores.
PARKING
Public parking is available at the Anaheim Convention Center for a nominal fee. Please allow ample time for parking, as some lots may be off site and will have shuttle service to convention center entrance.
Note: Overnight parking is prohibited at the Anaheim Convention Center.

I wish they didn't do that, let people stay the night before, we all want to see everything and do everything but if we are from out of town and spending money on a hotel room we want to sleep and get tickets to our favorite event. You created the app D23 people let us reserve tickets that way. No lines no fighting and you can relax at the event
ReplyDeleteTotally agree. How can anyone have the energy to enjoy when you don't get to sleep well the night before.
