Disney Infinity Toy Box Artists Gather At Disneyland Resort For the 2015 Toy Box Summit

Disney Interactive announced the schedule of events and tune-in details for this year’s Disney Infinity Toy Box Summit, a community event, which is held at the Disneyland Resort in Anaheim, CA ahead of this year’s D23 Expo 2015. Beginning today through August 13, 2015, top Toy Box Artists from around the world will gather for an in-depth hands-on look at the newly enhanced Disney Infinity 3.0 Edition Toy Box mode. Meet the developers from Avalanche Software – the team behind the successful “toys-to-life” franchise – and compete in a Toy Box building competition.

“We have always embraced our extremely loyal and supportive Disney Infinity community,” said John Blackburn, Senior Vice President and General Manager, Avalanche Software. “We’ve seen our fans form a close-knit bond through playing and sharing Toy Boxes and that has resulted in some incredibly creative feats. Bringing our community together for this event is our way of fostering that digital imagination that has made this such a unique and special game.”

The Toy Box Summit events will be held from 10:00 a.m. – 1:00 p.m. PST on August 12 and 13 in front of a live audience and viewers at home can tune in to watch the livestream on Twitch (www.twitch.tv/disney).
