The stars of Young and Restless came out to meet their fans on August 16 at the show’s 2025 Fan Club Luncheon at the Burbank Marriott Hotel (the same day and place where their sister soap, Bold and Beautiful, held their own annual fan gathering). Actors on hand for the event included longtime vets like Eric Braeden (Victor), Melody Thomas Scott (Nikki), and Peter Bergman (Jack), as well as newer additions to the cast like Billy Flynn (Cane) and Nathan Owens (Holden).

As a bonus, on the previous evening, fans gathered at the hotel for a special “Blast From the Past” event, which featured former stars of Y&R, like Michael Corbett (ex-David) and Tamara Clatterbuck (ex-Alice).
