Disney Cruise Line is a name that needs no introduction for those who love the sea and the magic of Disney. This year marks the 25th anniversary of Disney Cruise Line, and the company is all set to celebrate in style. In honor of this silver anniversary, Disney Cruise Line has planned a host of special activities and events for guests taking a holiday on board. From incredible summer destinations to exciting merchandise, unique food, and more, there’s never been a better time to cast off on a cruise adventure with Disney.
Disney Cruise Line’s history
The Disney Cruise Line has been setting sail since 1998, with its first ship, the Disney Magic. The Disney Wonder joined the fleet in 1999, followed by the Disney Dream in 2011, and the Disney Fantasy in 2012. The company has continued to grow its fleet over the years, most recently adding the Disney Wish, which entered service in 2022.
The two original Disney Cruise Line ships were the first of their kind to be designed and built from the keel up with the specific goal of being family ships. And of course, each of DCL’s ships has a special horn that plays the opening to the classic When You Wish Upon a Star theme from Disney’s Pinnochio.
What can you expect for Disney Cruise Line’s Silver Anniversary?
To mark its 25th anniversary, Disney Cruise Line will offer a range of delightful treats for guests onboard. Guests with special dietary needs can enjoy Mickey Mouse-shaped gluten-free waffles and other delicious food items. Additionally, guests can enjoy the limited edition merchandise with commemorative logos, including anniversary hats, t-shirts, and pins.
Special food
A celebration wouldn’t be complete without some exciting new dishes! Vacationers on a Disney Cruise Line cruise this summer can expect Disney to have pulled out all the stops when it comes to their dining experience. Seafarers can indulge their sweet tooth with the new 25th Disney Cruise Line Cupcake or the Mickey Chocolate Sphere filled with candy pieces. If you’re a fan of the many classic DCL desserts you’ve come to love, you can expect an extra enhancement on each of them this summer — a special 25th-anniversary chocolate piece! If you’d rather have a salty snack, DCL has you covered with their Silver Anniversary at Sea Popcorn Bucket.
Shimming Seas Collection
