Disney Cruise Line (DCL) has marked the arrival of Disney Adventure at its new homeport in Singapore, as the ship docked at Marina Bay Cruise Centre Singapore (MBCCS) with a water salute and fireworks display.
The vessel will depart on its maiden voyage from Singapore on March 10, 2026, operating three- and four-night sailings at sea. The programme is designed for families and will draw on Disney, Pixar and Marvel content across entertainment, dining and accommodation.
The deployment forms part of DCL’s expansion plans, with the fleet expected to grow to 13 ships by 2031. Recent additions include Disney Treasure and Disney Destiny. The Singapore homeporting arrangement is set for five years.
Singapore recorded more than two million cruise passengers from 375 ship calls in 2025, supported by direct air links to more than 160 cities and the expanded MBCCS. The Singapore Tourism Board said the agreement is expected to support fly-cruise demand and contribute to the tourism and maritime sectors.
Disney Adventure will feature seven themed areas and a range of dining and retail outlets. Onboard retail space totals nearly 1,580m². Retail concepts include World of Disney, National Geographic Store, and the Duffy and Friends Shop. Entertainment offerings include a new stage show, Remember, developed for the ship, alongside Duffy and the Friend Ship and a Marvel-themed attraction, Ironcycle Test Run.
Joe Schott, president of Disney Signature Experiences, said: “The arrival of the Disney Adventure in Singapore marks a significant milestone in our global expansion, introducing Disney cruising to Asia for the very first time. Honouring Disney Cruise Line’s legacy of unforgettable journeys, our newest ship brings together our signature storytelling and creativity in an exciting new destination.”
Melissa Ow, chief executive, Singapore Tourism Board, added: “The Disney Adventure’s arrival brings us a step closer towards realising our Tourism 2040 vision to drive quality tourism growth. Together with Disney Cruise Line, we’re excited to bring magical experiences to travellers from around the world.”
