"You are cordially invited to join Marvel and D23: The Official Disney Fan Club as we outfit the fiercest fashion and prepare for the powered-up party of the summer. Mutants, heroes, villains, and those in between are invited to the first ever real-life Hellfire Gala, where we’re bringing the living island of Krakoa to San Diego, California, on July 22, 2023.

The Hellfire Gala invites the human and superhuman world to witness (and be dazzled by) mutantkind’s global achievements. This revolutionary event is also where the highly anticipated announcement is made for the annual line-up of X-Men.

Attendees are encouraged to dress in super-powered style, fashioning the chicest looks, embellished by their own epic abilities. Because, as any Hellfire Gala fan knows, powers are the ultimate accessory. Are you a mutant who can control the weather and strike like lightning with a storm of style? Or maybe you’re channeling a powerful look inspired by your steely exterior and indestructible visage. No matter your unique mutation or cosplay creation, make sure YOU are feeling fly. (Bonus points if you can actually fly.)

This epic comic crossover event is being translated for the first time ever from in-page to in-person, celebrating this year’s Hellfire Gala in the pages of X-Men comics, along with the 60th anniversary of the X-Men! You’ll get the chance to strike a pose, and enter an extraordinary event filled with fashion, fun, and forces to be reckoned with.

We’re excited to share more on this uncanny event. Stay tuned right here for further details! And to keep up on even more super news and events like this, join D23: The Official Disney Fan Club today!"



Stay tuned for more info.

Sounds like a blast! I missed the TRON event last year, but excited to see another D23 event. Any other D23 members out there?

I didn’t go to the Tron last year because i was with my 14-year-old nephew. Think I’ll be solo this year. Definitely interested in this.

Does anyone know if this would be free: does any D23 member get in?  I'm not a D23 member, but might join  if membership = admission to this event.  My favorite after-hours parties have been Marvel parties (which are second only to the old school [adult swim] parties) and I'd be interested in this if it's a relatively easy event to get into if you're a D23 member.  Can anyone give any details from last year?

I went to a D23 event last year (not the Tron - but a Disney '80s one). There was an advance ticket that you could buy from the D23 site (and only there). The price included lots of food and soft drinks, plus everyone got a a cool door prize. Totally worth it.

There are two tiers for D23. Free and Gold. When they are doing any events.; Gold members will have first service, then free members. That includes announcements, buying tickets and entrance to the events.

If you wish. Most go casual.

Doubtful; it encourages cosplay

thanks. No, I'd hate tux/suits personally but I always associate a gala with that type of set up so I was just curious if that's the vibe they meant

I'm sure for fans that follow the X-Men gala. There will be some cosplayers dressed to the tee like in the comics.

I may be going to a gala in the near future, an annual fundraiser for a martial arts education group my family is involved in; maybe I'll cosplay as if for the Hellfire Gala just to throw everyone for a loop...🤔

Saw this announced on a Marvel Unlimited webinar last night and gotta say it sounds very intriguing.  Although dressing to the 9s in San Diego weather...dunno...but the possibilities...
