Catch beloved hits from the animated classic like “Zero to Hero” and “I Won’t Say I’m in Love.”

The live performance combines soulful gospel-style music with pop concert energy, plus puppets designed by the award-winning Michael Curry.

Feast like a king and be entertained as Pride Lands: Feast of the Lion King brings back the movie’s catchiest tunes.

The dining experience features African instruments, live musicians, and interpretative dance.

These will be complemented by matching dishes with African spices, grains, produce, and sauces.

The quirky yet endearing Edna “E” Mode from The Incredibles returns with an assortment of desserts.

Edna á la Mode will serve ice cream, candies, handmade gelato, cupcakes, gourmet popsicles, home-made chocolate bark, and the guest favorite Jack-Jack Cookie Num Nums.

The dessert shop has a futuristic, mid-century style that shows off Edna’s high-fashion sketches and latest superhero suits.

The Sanctum will be the first of its kind—a bar where Disney Destiny guests can indulge in Doctor Strange fandom.

Based on Stephen Strange’s New York Sanctum, patrons can admire the doctor’s light shield and mind work designs, the Cloak of Levitation, and spell books from Kamar-Taj while sipping coffee, cocktails, and mocktails.

See Cruella de Vil Live

The fashionable Cruela de Vil piano bar celebrates one of Disney’s most infamous villains.

We’ve been told that the ambiance is “wickedly bold,” lavish, and over-the-top, but always stylish from the interior design to the trendy martinis. 

Cruella herself is rumored to make an appearance, allowing guests to experience her larger-than-life personality.

Loki Takes Command of Disney Destiny

Passengers will come across several villains in the Grand Hall, but Loki’s arrival is one of the most anticipated.

Don’t be surprised if Thor’s adopted brother tries to commandeer Disney Destiny and invites bystanders to join his glorious quest.

True to its heroes and villains theme, the Wish-class cruise ship will host many other nemeses, including Sleeping Beauty’s Maleficent and The Princess and the Frog’s Dr. Facilier.

These villainous characters will be available for interactive shows, meet-and-greets, and special appearances throughout each sailing.

Together with three other ships, Disney Destiny will help Disney Cruise Line double its fleet by 2031.

The 140,000 gross-ton ship launches from Port Everglades in November 2025 with a four-day cruise to the Bahamas.

It will then host four- and five-night Western Caribbean and Bahamas voyages, featuring visits to Castaway Cay and Lookout Cay.
