Disney Cruise Line Announces Four New Cruise Ships

What’s better than a new Disney cruise ship? four All-New Disney Cruise Line Ships Joining the Fleet?

Four is the magic number! Announced during the Horizons: Disney Experiences Showcase, Josh D’Amaro (with help from the musical group All-4-One) revealed that four ships will join Disney Cruise Line’s ever-growing list of award-winning ships sailing around the world. These new ships will arrive between 2027 and 2031.

There are currently five ships in the fleet, with four more already under construction. These four additional new ships will bring the fleet to a total of 13, giving you 13 different opportunities to experience everything Disney Cruise Line is known for. Ship names, designs and exciting itineraries are still being developed, but feel free to start dreaming about your next cruise!

Josh also discussed other topics at D23: the ultimate Disney fan event. Josh revealed that the flagship production aboard Disney Destiny, which sets sail next year, will be “Disney Hercules,” featuring the music and characters you know and love from the classic Walt Disney Animation Studios film.

Additionally, Josh revealed new details about the Disney Treasure, which will set sail later this year! – where guests will be able to see the all-new stage production, “Disney The Tale of Moana.” The show will also feature a giant puppet on stage.

“Te Kā will appear on stage as a 15-foot-tall puppet, the largest we’ve ever produced for a Disney Cruise Line show,” Josh told the crowd. “I got to see it in person, and it’s mind-blowing.”

“At Disney Experiences, Imagineers dream, create, design and build these stories in real places. And we have Imagineers in place right now all over the world because everything we’re about to share with you is in development. Plans are being made. Things are moving. I just want to be clear about this: We’re doing everything you’re going to hear tonight.”
