D23 Black Flame Ball: Spell-ebrating 30 Years of Hocus Pocus—October 7th, 2023

Form a calming circle and ready your brooms, mops, and vacuums… D23 is headed back to Salem for a bewitching All Hallows’ Eve Ball! “Spell-ebrate” 30 years of Hocus Pocus at a Sanderson-style soiree in the storied city of Salem, Massachusetts. This enchanted event will feature inspired entertainment, reminiscent of the iconic Halloween party from the film.
