D23, the Ultimate Disney Fan Event, is back in Anaheim from August 14 through August 16, 2026. Thousands of fans are filling the Anaheim Convention Center for three days of panels, showcases and celebrations across every corner of the Disney universe. Right in the middle of that lineup sits a date that demigod fans have been circling for months.
Disney has confirmed that the Percy Jackson and the Olympians Season 3 Panel will stream live on Disney+ on Saturday, August 15 at about 3:30 p.m. PT. Fans who cannot make the trip to Anaheim will still get a front row seat from their living rooms, right alongside the crowd inside the convention center.
The panel description from Disney promises a must-see celebration packed with behind-the-scenes stories and exciting teases. Cast and producers from the series are expected to take the stage together, offering the kind of camp fire energy that has defined this show since its earliest table reads.
For a fandom built on books that grew up right alongside their readers, a live panel like this one feels especially meaningful. It gives Disney a chance to speak directly to the people who have followed Percy from page to screen, and it gives those fans a rare moment to hear from the storytellers themselves.
What Season 3 is bringing to the table
Season 3 is confirmed to adapt The Titan’s Curse, the third book in Rick Riordan’s beloved series. That book carries real weight for longtime readers. It widens the world of half bloods considerably and raises the stakes for Percy and his friends in ways the first two seasons have only begun to hint at.
Disney Branded Television and 20th Television announced the Season 3 renewal back on March 14, 2025. That early greenlight gave the production team a real runway to plan ahead, and it is part of why the show has been able to build steadily from one season to the next rather than rushing.
The series remains a true passion project for its source material author. Rick Riordan created the show together with Jonathan E. Steinberg, and Riordan has stayed closely involved as an executive producer through every step of the adaptation.
Walker Scobell continues in the lead role of Percy Jackson. Leah Sava Jeffries plays Annabeth Chase. Aryan Simhadri rounds out the core trio as Grover Underwood. These three young actors have grown alongside their characters across two seasons, and fans have watched that chemistry deepen with every new episode.
Lin-Manuel Miranda returns as Hermes, the messenger god who has become one of the show’s most delightful surprises. His scenes have carried a playful energy that fans quote long after episodes air, and his presence on the panel stage would be a highlight for the Anaheim crowd.
Riordan himself has teased that Season 3 will introduce the Hunters of Artemis on screen for the very first time. He has also confirmed that Nico di Angelo, a character many readers hold dear, will finally make his live action debut. Both additions promise to expand the emotional scope of the story in ways book fans have waited years to see.
Fans who grew up reading The Titan’s Curse remember how much the story leans on found family and quiet courage. Bringing the Hunters of Artemis into live action means introducing a whole new code of loyalty into Percy’s world. Bringing Nico di Angelo on screen means introducing a character whose arc will echo for seasons to come. Both feel like the kind of additions that reward patient, careful adaptation rather than a rushed introduction.
Season 2 of Percy Jackson and the Olympians premiered on Disney+ in December 2025. The show has already earned significant recognition along the way. It has collected 16 Children’s and Family Emmy nominations and took home a Kids Choice Award for Favorite Kids TV Show, proof that this adaptation has connected with exactly the audience it set out to reach.
No official Season 3 premiere date has been announced yet, so the D23 panel is shaping up as the biggest opportunity so far for new details. Anything shared on that Anaheim stage will likely set the tone for how fans picture The Titan’s Curse coming to life.
Disney+ has also lined up a wide slate of other D23 programming to stream that same weekend, including a Beauty and the Beast anniversary celebration and a Disney Worldbuilders panel. The Percy Jackson panel sits comfortably among that company, a sign of how central this series has become to the Disney+ lineup in just a short time.
For now, the plan is simple and exciting. Mark Saturday, August 15 at 3:30 p.m. PT, open Disney+ and settle in for a celebration built entirely around one of the platform’s warmest young adult hits. Whether you are watching from the Anaheim Convention Center floor or from your couch at home, this panel feels like a genuine gift to a fandom that has waited patiently for more.
