Discover the Disney Destiny! New Reveals!

Heroes and villains – assemble!

Disney Cruise Line is embarking on three days of epic announcements revealing the Disney Destiny, our new heroes and villains-inspired ship – and we invite you to follow along! From July 30 through Aug. 1, 2024, stay tuned to find out everything you need to know about this marvelous addition to the fleet.

First up: A host of hero-worthy new spaces and experiences inspired by beloved Disney and Pixar films!

We are thrilled to announce that the Disney Destiny will debut a first-of-its-kind dining experience celebrating the unforgettable music of Walt Disney Animation Studios’ “The Lion King;” an exclusive confectionary themed to Pixar Animation Studio’s “The Incredibles;” and legendary accommodations perfect for relaxing after a day of heroic feats.

If you’re anything like me, the only thing better than dinner or a show is … well, you guessed it – dinner AND a show! Pride Lands: Feast of The Lion King will not only be just that, but it will also join the ranks as a first-of-its-kind Disney dining experience, bringing the iconic songs and legendary moments of the renowned animated classic to life for your family throughout dinner.

So, what can you expect in this all-new family restaurant?

While you dine, live musicians and storytellers will present a musical journey through “The Lion King” soundtrack, using authentic African instruments and theatrical props to represent the story and characters. From productions of “Circle of Life” and “Hakuna Matata,” to a one-of-a-kind mash-up of “I Just Can’t Wait to Be King” and “Be Prepared, the show will be a musical retelling of Simba’s heroic journey to triumph over his villainous uncle and claim his rightful place as king of Pride Rock – and undoubtedly one of your most memorable meals on the high seas!

Zazu said it best when he told Simba: “you can’t escape your destiny”… and we can’t wait for you to discover yours at Pride Lands: Feast of the Lion King! For more information about the restaurant’s design and inspiration, check out this post!

Edna Mode’s lab, where the famed fashion designer from Pixar’s “The Incredibles” films whips up outfits for the world’s most famous Supers, will be transformed into a unique confectionary at the brand-new Edna Á La Mode Sweets aboard the Disney Destiny.

Inspired by the “Auntie Edna” short film, Edna’s sewing equipment will be repurposed as sweet-making devices – and the result is, shall we say… marvelous?!

This dessert spot is sure to be a hit with your family, with handmade gelato, ice cream, cookies, candies and specialty treats served in a space full of bolts of fabric and costume models. And while she never looks back, you might have to do a double-take of the picture-perfect sculptures of both Edna and Jack-Jack — one hard at work, one hungry for “num nums!”

Just off the Grand Hall — the central hub and gathering space on the Disney Destiny — two casual walk-up cafes will serve a mighty selection of coffee, tea, specialty beverages and snacks. You can fuel up for your heroic ventures onboard at Café Megara, a space that will pay homage to Disney Animation’s “Hercules” with a unique and vibrant “Greco disco” design, or at Café Merida, an area that will be inspired by the flame-haired heroine of Pixar’s “Brave” with its Celtic-centered design.

A hero’s welcome will be waiting for you aboard the Disney Destiny! Your stateroom will be your home-away-from-home on the high seas – a luxurious retreat where you and your family can rest, reconnect and dream of far-off places.

Like every Disney Cruise Line ship, the Disney Destiny will offer spacious, comfortable and functional staterooms that uniquely meet the needs of your family. Most staterooms will feature Disney Cruise Line’s signature split-bath concept, and many will offer the option of a connecting door between staterooms, making it easy to travel with extended family and friends.

Concierge guests aboard the Disney Destiny will receive a premium level of dedicated service and access to exclusive areas and amenities, including a concierge lounge and private sun deck. Among the concierge staterooms and suites will be four royal suites inspired by “Hercules” and “The Incredibles,” offering accommodations (and views!) of heroic proportions. Every hero needs a place to rest, so be sure to check out more information about the staterooms and accommodations aboard the Disney Destiny here! And stay tuned throughout the week to see what’s next!
