General Hospital may have celebrated its 60th anniversary back on April 1 of this year, but that doesn’t mean the soap isn’t taking the celebration into 2024.

A General Hospital Extravaganza

General Hospital: 60 Years of Stars and Storytelling is set to air on January 4, 2024, on ABC in primetime. The show will feature past and present cast members to bring back memories and usher the soap into the future.

According to ABC, you can expect to see, “Fan-favorite cast members from throughout the years as they pull back the curtain on six decades in Port Charles, including behind-the-scenes moments, bloopers, a special fan tribute, and more exciting surprises honoring General Hospital‘s legacy.”

On tap to appear on the special are current faves Genie Francis (Laura), Finola Hughes (Anna), Jane Elliot (Tracy), and Maurice Benard (Sonny), but you will also see a few old favorites like Rick Springfield (ex-Noah) and Amber Tamblyn (ex-Emily).

60 Years Celebrated In Style

When GH marked 60 years on the air in April, it did so with a storyline that harkened back to yesteryear as a Cassadine once again tried to freeze the world, but also took it one step further as Victor tried to release a pathogen upon the planet that would wipe out much of the population.

It was up to Laura (Genie Francis) to once again save humanity with a little help from her grandson, Spencer Cassadine (Nicholas Alexander Chavez), and his girlfriend, Trina Robinson (Tabyana Ali). Laura has a few other assistants, as well, including former enemy Valentin Cassadine (James Patrick Stuart), along with Curtis Ashford (Donnell Turner) and Anna Devane (Finola Hughes).

PEOPLE magazine also marked the occasion with a special 60th anniversary edition dedicated to the six decades of GH on our screens.

General Hospital airs weekdays on ABC. Check your local listings for times. Remember, you can always find the latest GH spoilers, recaps, and news on Facebook at General Hospital Daily. Also, meet fellow fans and talk all things GH with our Facebook community group.
