Disney’s Very Merrytime sailings are offered on select cruises in November and December. Each sailing combines everything you love from a traditional Disney cruise plus all of the magic of Christmas! This year, Disney has all-new magic in store for 2023 that is sure to put a little jolly in your holly! From all new shows to exciting first-time events, there’s something for everyone aboard!
Tree Lighting
On the first night of every Very Merrytime sailing, Mickey, Minnie, and the gang will invite you to the atrium to kick off the magic in a very special way. The tree lighting begins with a Christmas carol sing-along followed by a fun-filled countdown. Once the countdown reaches 0, the tree will light up in a dazzling display that will take your breath away. Once the tree is lit, Mickey will introduce the guest on honor sailing aboard your ship- the big guy himself! Santa will make an appearance to the delight of all the kiddos on board.
Who doesn’t love a good tree lighting? Even the simplest tree-lighting ceremony fills hearts with joy. A Disney tree lighting? It’s unforgettable. Pro-tip: to really get in the Christmas spirit, stop by any of Disney Cruise Line’s fabulous coffee shops for a festive hot cocoa before the tree lighting begins!
Mickey and Minnie’s Holiday Party
Join Mickey and Minnie on the upper deck for a one-of-a-kind holiday party for the whole family! This party is brand new for 2023 and sure to become a fan favorite.
