Despite initially expected to launch on January 1, 2023. The Disney100 website has finally launched with virtually no functionality.
What is Happening:
- At the D23 Expo it was announced that a Disney100 website would launch on January 1, 2023 in conjunction with the celebration launching on Dick Clark’s New Years Rockin’ Eve on ABC.
- The website did not launch and while the Disneyland Resort celebration was mentioned during the broadcast, there was virtually no mention of the company-wide initiative.
- At the time, it was expected that Disney’s well documented technology challenges may have prevented an on-time launch of the site.
- In conjunction with the debut of The Walt Disney Company’s Super Bowl ad, the website has finally launched.
- Despite the delay, it only plays the ad and features links to the social accounts of Disney’s various divisions.
- It is unknown what would cause the delay of such a limited website.
- While Disney100 was a passion project of former Disney CEO Bob Chapek, it is not known how the change in leadership has impacted the Disney100 Celebration.
