Villainous New Spaces & Entertainment Revealed for the Disney Destiny

 

'We’re baaaack’ with another day of exciting news unveiling the Disney Destiny! Yesterday was all about the heroes, but today we’re putting the “naughty” in “nautical notoriety” with spaces and experiences inspired by some of Disney’s most legendary schemers, scoundrels and specters.

With its “Heroes and Villains” theme, the Disney Destiny will embrace the dynamic duality of every great Disney story, and the opposing forces of light and dark that drive characters to rise to their destinies. After all, there wouldn’t be any beloved heroes without cunning villains to challenge them! Disney, Pixar and Marvel characters will inspire themed venues and entertainment across the ship, including brand-new lounges celebrating Cruella de Vil and the Pirates of the Caribbean!

 

DeVilish Delights

What’s black and white and red all over? If you think you may know the answer to this riddle, think again! On the Disney Destiny, guests can have a glamorous night on the town at De Vil’s piano lounge, a lavish affair fit for the bar’s namesake: the fabulously over-the-top villain Cruella de Vil of Walt Disney Animation Studios’ “One Hundred and One Dalmatians” and the acclaimed 2021 live action film.

Adorned in her signature color palette of red with accents of black and white, Cruella’s infamous flair for style and wickedly bold attitude will be reflected in the aesthetic of this adult-exclusive lounge. And while an eye-catching spotted piano will steal the show at the center of the space, in true Cruella fashion, this villainous icon will make cameos in some of the can’t-miss design details.

Located just off the Grand Hall, guests will be able to wind down in style at De Vil’s with a trendy martini, chic cocktail or glamorous glass of bubbly – an experience that is sure to be anything but “miserable, darling.”

Drink Up, Me Hearties, Yo Ho

At Cask and Cannon, join the ranks of the “Pirates of the Caribbean” for an evening of revelry, recreation and — of course — rum!

Inspired by the beloved Disney Parks attractions around the world, this new pub will be an eclectic, yet cozy watering hole furnished with treasures “acquired” (read: pillaged and pilfered) during the pirates’ many voyages around the globe.

Here, guests and their fellow buccaneers will regale one another with tales of their high seas’ adventures; cheer and jeer during live televised sporting events; and indulge in an extensive menu of rare, specialty and vintage rums and a selection of “bootlegged” brews developed specially for the venue and served – in true pirate style – straight from the barrel. What say you?!

 

We Dare Not Stop or Waste a Drop  

The AquaMouse, Disney Cruise Line’s signature attraction at sea, will return to the Disney Destiny with a brand-new storyline, “Sing a Silly Song,” filled with encounters with famed Disney villains. Before they complete the 760-foot-long water ride towering above the upper decks, guests will join Mickey and Minnie Mouse on a seemingly ominous trek to the peak of Villain Mountain. But what do you do when faced with some of the most fearsome Disney Animation villains? Sing a silly song of course! 

The result – with the help of some pixie dust – is that every chilling encounter turns into a wacky surprise. Families are sure to laugh and splash along as the Queen of Hearts (“Alice in Wonderland”), Scar (“The Lion King”), Chernabog (“Fantasia”) and others find themselves in the silliest of situations!

Be Prepared for the Chance of a Lifetime

Aboard the Disney Destiny, guests will encounter a fearsome crew of formidable foes throughout the ship — including Maleficent, Dr. Facilier, Cruella de Vil, Captain Hook, Mr. Smee and Oogie Boogie — and some of Disney’s most mischievous and misunderstood personalities – like Captain Jack Sparrow, Bruno and Loki. Families will have the chance to interact with these villains, rogues and mischief-makers during all-new events and activities, as well as some of their favorite Disney Cruise Line programs, from a frighteningly fun dance party in Oogie Boogie’s shipboard lair to interactive Disney trivia that often gets interrupted by a cast of Disney villains.

 

Happy Haunts Materialize 

Foolish mortals will be welcomed to sip spirited craft cocktails among the 999 happy haunts of Disney Parks lore at the Haunted Mansion Parlor, a highly anticipated lounge that will first debut aboard the Disney Treasure this December.

At the Haunted Mansion Parlor, grim grinning guests will sample a selection of ghostly cocktails that capture the spirit of the story, while legendary characters from Haunted Mansion attractions around the world come out to socialize in mysterious ways (along with a few new seafaring arrivals).
