D23: The Official Disney Fan Club is once again hitting the road this year with D23′s Disney Fanniversary celebration, commemorating dozens of Disney milestones celebrating anniversaries in 2013.

The Official Disney Fan Club is bringing the show to ten different cities around the United States, including two in Orlando.  Tickets go on sale to D23 members tomorrow, February 5, at 10 a.m. PST. The remaining General Admission tickets will be available February 12 at 10 a.m., PST. The D23 Member price is $21 and  general admission is $35.

Topics featured in the show will include movies, classic characters, favorite attractions and entertainment spectaculars at Disney parks, The Disney Channel, Disney Cruise Line and the momentous founding of The Walt Disney Company in, of course, 1923.  For an idea of the type of entertainment the event provides, take a look back at the very first Fanniversary event last year.

The 90-minute show will be hosted by a Disney archivist and D23 Team member and will highlight behind-the-scenes stories of magical moments through rarely or never-before-seen film footage, concept art, photography, and exclusive interviews with many favorite Disney Legends and luminaries.
