The last panel before noon will be “Walt ’70s World”, which is described as a “pop culture-fueled ride through the first of the Disney decades that defined Walt Disney World”.

After a 2-hour break, the afternoon will include a discussion of Drawn to Life, which is “Disney’s first collaboration with Cirque Du Soleil”, and “the years-long process of creating [it], from the team’s early Animator’s Trust up to their emotions following the show’s grand opening”. Star Wars fans will rejoice for the next panel, which will be “World Building for Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser” and which will feature host Ashley Eckstein as she talks to “the creative minds behind the project”. Next up is a panel that will focus on Walt Disney World’s 50th anniversary called “Magical Entertainment for the Walt Disney World 50th Anniversary Celebration”, followed by The Art and Imagery of Walt Disney World (which involves looking back on “50 years of the most gorgeous, stunning, and fascinating artwork and images behind The Most Magical Place on Earth”) and “Walt ’80s World”.

On Sunday November 21st, the panels will kick off with “Disney+ Download at Destination D23″, “a look at what’s trending and what’s next for the streaming service”.
