A new cruise ship will introduce the first stage adaptation of Encanto at sea, an original Frozen dining experience and a range of family and adult venues.
Disney Believe will begin sailing from Fort Lauderdale in Florida on December 18, 2027, operating four- and five-night voyages to the Caribbean and The Bahamas. General bookings open on October 19.
The ship’s theatre program will include Disney Encanto, created exclusively for the vessel and featuring songs from the animated film, alongside a reworked version of Tangled: The Musical and Disney Seas the Adventure.
A new family restaurant, Oaken’s Table: A Frozen Family Feast, will extend the Frozen story with appearances from characters including Oaken, Anna and Kristoff.
Returning dining concepts will include 1923 and Worlds of Marvel, while a new Mediterranean food outlet, Pluto’s Pita Platters, will join the upper deck dining options.
The ship’s Grand Hall will draw inspiration from Moana, while a new entertainment space themed to Zootopia will host family activities during the day and adult programming at night. Judy Hopps and Nick Wilde will also feature in a new family show.
New adult venues include Sea Notes, a piano lounge inspired by The Little Mermaid, Wishing Well, drawing on Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, and Skygazers, an observatory-style pub.
The Haunted Mansion Parlor will also return with a new menu created for the ship.
Family areas will include seven pools, the AquaMouse water attraction, a Toy Story themed splash zone and dedicated clubs for children and teenagers.
Accommodation will include family staterooms, concierge rooms and suites, four Royal Suites and the two-storey Believe Tower Suite, located within the forward funnel.
The ship will be the fourth Wish Class vessel, joining Disney Wish, Disney Treasure and Disney Destiny.
Its launch forms part of Disney Cruise Line’s wider fleet expansion, which is expected to grow to 13 ships by late 2030.
