Newsletter: Disney Cruise Line Reveals Spaces and Experiences Coming to the Disney Adventure, Setting Sail on December 15, 2025

[THIS IS A PRESS RELEASE]

Drawing on over 100 years of storytelling from Disney, Marvel and Pixar, the first Disney Cruise Line ship for guests in Asia will be filled with epic experiences, endless adventures and something for everyone to delight in 



When the Disney Adventure sets sail from Singapore on December 15, 2025, guests will be treated to a magical cruise holiday that celebrates Disney’s rich legacy of storytelling, bringing to life the fantastical worlds and beloved characters at the heart of Disney, Pixar and Marvel.  

Continuing Disney Cruise Line’s tradition of delivering the most magical and relaxing vacations at sea,  the Disney Adventure will also feature many “firsts” for the fleet, including experiences specially created  for guests in Asia to enjoy.  

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 larger-than-life personalities from the Marvel Universe. One of the attractions will be Ironcycle Test Run – the longest rollercoaster at sea. Guests can  also look forward to a remarkable spread of dining options comprising not just international favorites  but also world-renowned Asian cuisine. Showstopping Broadway-style entertainment will dazzle in an  all-new musical spectacular, “Remember,” developed exclusively for the Disney Adventure, and, for  every traveling group and size, there will be numerous luxurious and comfortable stateroom types for  guests to retreat and unwind in.  

Bookings for the Disney Adventure are scheduled to open on December 10, 2024. Details on pricing and  sailing dates will be released on November 14, 2024. 

“As part of our unprecedented expansion for Disney Cruise Line, we are committed to delivering  exceptional experiences that bring our special brand of cruising and the best of Disney storytelling to  new guests on new shores,” said Sharon Siskie, senior vice president and general manager, Disney Cruise  Line. “When the Disney Adventure sets sail in December 2025, guests throughout Southeast Asia will have the opportunity to experience the magic of their favorite Disney, Pixar and Marvel stories, in their very own backyard.”  

Disney Cruise Line guests can look forward to an exceptional experience anchored in world-class entertainment, themed dining and artful accommodations. On the Disney Adventure, this magic will come alive through seven uniquely themed areas: Disney Imagination Garden, Toy Story Place, San Fransokyo Street, Town Square, Wayfinder Bay, Disney Discovery Reef and Marvel Landing (refer to accompanying press materials for more information). 

“Today we unveil the spectacular new Disney Adventure to the world,” said Sarah Fox, vice president and regional general manager, Southeast Asia, Disney Cruise Line. “Sailing on primarily three- and four-night voyages designed with only dedicated days at sea, the ship will include something for everyone.  From fun and interactive spaces for kids, to relaxing venues for adults to unwind, to entertaining and  engaging places for families to enjoy together, guests will find endless adventures from bow to stern.” 

Enthralling Entertainment 

Disney Cruise Line’s unique approach to ship design – where every space and venue is an opportunity for stories to come to life – sets the fleet apart. On the Disney Adventure, guests will be in for entertainment on an epic scale: unforgettable character encounters, dazzling Broadway-style shows, signature events, first-run films, karaoke, game shows and more. 

Surrounded by the open sea and sky, the upper decks of the Disney Adventure will have something for  everyone to enjoy. At Marvel Landing, guests will experience Avengers-level adventures on three all new attractions and experiences inspired by iconic Marvel Super Heroes. On Ironcycle Test Run, a 250- meter-long (820 feet) rollercoaster, guests will test-drive Tony Stark’s latest Ironcycle prototype on a  thrilling high-speed circuit and be suspended up to 9 meters (30 feet) above the upper decks. Aboard  Pym Quantum Racers, guests will steer Pym Tech-modified mini-cars on an oversized toy set track, and  Groot Galaxy Spin will take guests on an out-of-this-world ride onboard a Nova Corp Bass Jumper, set to an awesome mix of upbeat music. 

Also on the upper decks, Toy Story Place will inspire guests to explore, play, connect and have fun in a  whimsical water play land where the world of Pixar’s “Toy Story” will spring to life. Designed for  families with young children, the area will include playful water features inspired by the films, including  a large family pool, multiple whirlpools, towering water slides and interactive splash pads. 

In San Fransokyo Street, guests will find Big Hero Arcade, a dynamic family gaming lounge. The  centerpiece of Big Hero Arcade will be Hiro Training Zone, an immersive training simulator – an active,  full-body experience that will allow groups of four to put their skills to the test as they run, dodge and  block their way across a high-tech gaming floor. 

In true Disney Cruise Line fashion, dazzling stage shows and Broadway-style entertainment will capture  the hearts of guests. At the Walt Disney Theater, two spectacular productions will come to life on stage:  “Remember,” an all-new musical spectacular developed exclusively for the Disney Adventure, will be a  heartwarming tale featuring the beloved robot duo from Disney-Pixar’s “Wall-E” and other beloved  Disney stars, and a favorite of the fleet, “Disney Seas the Adventure” will take guests on a musical  journey through beloved stories featuring iconic Disney songs and characters. 

At the heart of the ship, Disney Imagination Garden will have a state-of-the-art Garden Stage with three-deck-high LED screens, setting a wondrous scene for guests with its open-air, amphitheater-style seating. It will be home to several shows starring favorite Disney and Marvel characters, including: 

Let’s Set Sail, a high-energy dance party that will jumpstart the fun on embarkation day; Avengers Assemble!, an epic battle of Marvel Super Heroes and Villains; Captain Jack Sparrow & the Siren Queen, a swashbuckling adventure helmed by the roguish and charming Captain Jack Sparrow; Mickey’s Color  Spin Dance Party, a vibrant and energetic celebration perfect for Disney music lovers of all ages; and  Baymax Super Exercise Expo, a musical exercise show inspired by the members of Big Hero 6. 

A Dining Extravaganza – Featuring the Best of Asian and International Flavors Aboard the Disney Adventure, dinner will be more than a meal — it will be a chance to experience favorite Disney stories through immersive theming and distinctly Disney entertainment.  

The Disney Adventure will offer rotational dining, Disney Cruise Line’s signature dining concept in which guests will have three distinctly Disney dining experiences during their voyage, with a preset dining schedule included with each booking. Guests will also be accompanied by the same dedicated service team assigned to their dining party throughout the voyage, adding an elevated and personal touch to each meal.
