D&D 5E D&D Celebration Schedule

From September 23-26, the D&D community comes together for D&D Celebration – a weekend celebrating the release of The Wild Beyond the Witchlight, and previewing Fizban’s Treasury of Dragons (Oct 19) and Strixhaven: A Curriculum of Chaos (Nov 16)!

The first official D&D musical? The cast of Star Trek: Discovery rolling the d20s? This year’s D&D Celebration will offer fans a front row seat to watch all that and more as hilarious Dungeon Masters lead adventures in a slate of side-splitting virtual games including:

- Disco Does D&D
o Cast members from Star Trek: Discovery Anthony Rapp, Mary Wisemann, Blu del Barrio, Ian Alexander, and special guest Wil Wheaton, play D&D with Noah Averbach-Katz at the helm as DM

- The Circus of Sound – a D&D Musical
o The long-awaited D&D musical event starring Anthony Rapp, Jason Charles Miller, Azie Dungey, Vico Ortiz, and Mariah Rose Faith with Kelly Lynne D’Angelo as DM

- The Slapstick Hunt: A Silly Chase
o DM Amy Vorpahl leads cast members from The Guild, Sandeep Parikh, Vince Caso, Robin Thorsen, Amy Okuda, and Jeff Lewis on a comedic adventure through the multiverse

- The Dungeon & The Dragon
o An unlikely band of monsters are assembled to help a wronged dragon track down the heroes who stole her hoard with Alicia Marie, Deborah Ann Woll, Todd Stashwick, Patrick Rothfuss, and Matthew Lillard playing as monsters and B. Dave Walters as DM

- The Great Dragon Tourney
o Get ready for a tourney unlike any other featuring dragon jousting, racing, and diplomacy starring Anna Prosser, Mica Burton, Nathan Sharp, Jonathan Indovino, and Kate Welch (in an extra-special role) with Mark Hulmes as DM

The weekend will close with a look to the future of the brand with the Future of D&D panel hosted by D&D’s own Liz Schuh, Ray Winninger, Chris Perkins, and Jeremy Crawford.

Yeah, I think reports of 5e's death are being greatly exaggerated.

 

[Bolares]

5e is dead! Long live 5e!

 

[Urriak Uruk]

Yeah, I think reports of 5e's death are being greatly exaggerated.

I don't know why there is unending speculation 6E is on the horizon... I guess folks just like getting excited for new core rulebooks?

 

[LuisCarlos17f]

My opinion is the "6th Ed" should be a d20 Modern 2.0. And the last years of an edition should be to risk testing new ideas, for example classes with special game mechanics. Why not the return of the monster classes? If they are the last years there is not a long time to complain if they are broken.

Looks like they will be dropping something good!

"If you roll high on your Wisdom checks, there may even be a big announcement."

So, the announcement is real, and we probably won't need a high roll.

Amazon has posted a new D&D book scheduled for January, 2022. The description says it will be revealed on D&D Celebration stream this Sunday.

But...but...what if we catch ideological cooties??

There's penicillin for that now.

I was right!!!

Anyways it's very interesting that they added Chris and Jeremy to the panel, originally the Future of D&D was only Ray and Liz like last year.

I'll be shocked if it's not one of the classic settings.

Edit: I originally said they added Chris and Perkins to the Panel .

Picard will likely be a Q before the end of Season 2...3 at the outside. By Season 7 it will be a fully animated show with an AI Patrick Stewart "actor".

only 3 seasons of Picard are planned and they are already working on season 3, they want this done while Patrick Stewart still has a pulse, he's not getting any younger.
