The Disney Destiny, Disney Cruise Line’s new heroes and villains-inspired ship, is roaring to life in late 2025, and we just can’t wait to be king … and set sail!
Like all Disney Cruise Line ships, the Disney Destiny will feature imaginative restaurants where you can interact with Disney stories in exciting ways … including the debut of a brand-new family dining experience exclusive to this ship.
The iconic songs and legendary moments of “The Lion King” will come to life at Pride Lands: Feast of The Lion King, a first-of-its-kind dining experience celebrating the renowned music from the Walt Disney Animation Studios film that continues to transcend generations.
The enchanting venue will be inspired by the African savanna, with unique depictions of animals and nature brought to life through lighting and special effects. The back wall will be lined with large windows that transform from stunning sunrises to enchanting sunsets throughout the meal, while the center of the restaurant will have tiered risers that mimic the look of African drums.
A colorful ensemble of live musicians and storytellers will take the stage to present a musical journey through the award-winning soundtrack as you dine. During special intervals throughout the meal, the band and performers will revisit the iconic songs from “The Lion King” using authentic African instruments and theatrical props to represent the story and characters. Audiences will delight in:
- Productions of “Circle of Life” and “Hakuna Matata;”
- A mash-up of “I Just Can’t Wait to Be King” and “Be Prepared,” a fun take that highlights the hero-villain dynamic of the story;
- An instrumental version of “Can You Feel the Love Tonight” paired with a beautiful interpretive dance; and
- A moving rendition of “He Lives in You” from the sequel film and Broadway show.
Can you feel a sing-along coming?
Oh, we just can’t wait for this to open!
So Be Prepared for the vacation of a lifetime…
