Disney Parks Hosting Duffy & Friends Panel at D23 Expo 2022, Likely to Reintroduce Duffy to US Parks

Disney Imagineers will talk about the origin and popularity of Duffy & Friends during a panel at this year’s D23 Expo.

Duffy & Friends

Duffy the Disney Bear originally debuted as a plush at Walt Disney World and Disneyland Resort but wasn’t as initially popular as Disney hoped. Duffy moved over to Tokyo Disney Resort and was a big hit. In the years since, Duffy gained several animal friends and expanded to other international parks and Disney Cruise Line. It seems likely that Disney will announce Duffy’s official return to the U.S.A. parks during D23 Expo 2022.

Here is the information about the Duffy & Friends panel:
