What Guests Can Expect to Experience on the Disney Adventure

Wow! The Disney Adventure looks like it’s going to be just an amazing ship when it sets sail from Singapore. This new ship will feature characters you know and love from the stories of Disney, Pixar and Marvel.

The Disney Adventure will also feature many “firsts” for the fleet, including experiences specially created for guests in Asia to enjoy.

For example, in a first for Disney Cruise Line, the Disney Adventure will include three all-new Disney attractions on the upper decks in an adventure zone that celebrates the Marvel Universe. One of the attractions will be Ironcycle Test Run, which will be the longest rollercoaster at sea. Guests can also look forward to incredible dining options that include both international favorites and also world-renowned Asian cuisine. Showstopping Broadway-style entertainment will include the all-new musical spectacular, “Remember,” developed exclusively for the Disney Adventure, and, for every party, there will be numerous luxurious and comfortable stateroom types available for guests.

The Disney Adventure will include seven uniquely themed areas: Disney Imagination Garden, Toy Story Place, San Fransokyo Street, Town Square, Wayfinder Bay, Disney Discovery Reef and Marvel Landing.

Captain Mickey and Minnie Grace the Stern of the Disney Adventure

If you’ve sailed on Disney Cruise Line before, you know one of the traditions of each ship is for the stern to feature not only the name of the ship, but also select Disney characters that help to represent that particular ship. And the new ship, the Disney Adventure will have, I think, some of the best stern characters of them all! That’s because this ship will feature Captain Mickey Mouse and Captain Minnie Mouse!

Captain Mickey and Captain Minnie were selected to decorate the Disney Adventure stern to celebrate the fleet’s first ship based in Singapore. These two stand at over 13 feet tall! They will be an incredible welcome for Guests sailing on this ship which will debut later this year.

Exploring Disney Imagination Garden

Remember those pop-up storybooks we used to read as a kid? Well, Disney Imagination Garden will be filled with landscapes styled like paper cut-outs. These include things like decorative foliage of blooming flowers, shaped topiaries, tall trees and cascading vines. There will also be things like towering trellises and twinkling lanterns. Planted throughout the space will be a mix of popular characters and designs from Disney, Pixar, and Marvel stories.

Disney Imagination Garden will be anchored by the Garden Stage on one end and the larger-than-life castle artwork on the other. There will be a promenade in between. Directly in front of the stage will be an open “lawn” area leading to a large staircase that will double as amphitheater-style seating which is perfect for enjoying live entertainment on the Garden Stage. On either side of the staircase, there will be arches and tree branches with hanging lanterns that will further evoke the area’s storybook garden theme.

At the top of the grand staircase, guests will discover a charming garden courtyard and bar surrounded by trees. This area will be designed to look like storybook cut-outs and decorated with images of familiar animal pals.

At the center of the courtyard, a Sorcerer’s Apprentice Mickey Mouse topiary will stand with his wand held high.

Families staying in Garden View staterooms, an all-new room category for Disney Cruise Line, will have access to a verandah providing unmatched views of Disney Imagination Garden.

New Fireworks Show! The Lion King: Celebration in the Sky

Disney Cruise Line is famously the only cruise line in the world to offer fireworks at sea, and that magical tradition will continue aboard the Disney Adventure. The ship will feature an all-new, ship-exclusive fireworks show called “The Lion King: Celebration in the Sky.” This stunning nighttime spectacular celebrates the beloved story of The Lion King through dazzling fireworks at sea, dramatic lighting effects, and powerful music from the film’s iconic soundtrack.

Guests will hear:

• “Circle of Life”
• “Hakuna Matata”
• “He Lives in You”

The Lion King: Celebration in the Sky will be offered on select nights.

New Broadway-Style Show Called “Remember”

In addition to fireworks, the Disney Adventure will debut a brand-new Broadway-style production. This show will be exclusive to the ship’s Walt Disney Theatre.

“Remember” is a heartwarming original story featuring WALL-E and Eve from Pixar’s WALL-E and yes, it sounds like it will absolutely tug at your heartstrings.

The story begins as WALL-E prepares a surprise for Eve when she returns from a long mission. But their joyful reunion takes an unexpected turn when a sudden power outage causes Eve to reboot, threatening their special moment.

To help restore Eve, heroes and princesses from beloved Disney and Pixar films come together. This includes characters from Coco, The Little Mermaid, and Aladdin.

Through the magic of music and cherished memories, these characters help WALL-E on his emotional journey to bring Eve back. This musical spectacular will bring to life these incredible characters, stories, and songs through state-of-the-art technology and beautifully crafted puppetry.
