First Look at Disney Imagination Garden Aboard Disney Adventure Cruise Ship

Disney Cruise Line shared a first look at Disney Imagination Garden, the central hub of the upcoming Disney Adventure.

A decorated indoor stage with a castle mural, surrounded by ornate green and gold architecture, trees, and plants, with green carpeting in the foreground and staircases on either side.

An enchanting valley, blooming with beloved stories, will welcome guests onboard the Disney Adventure, Disney Cruise Line’s new ship sailing out of Singapore in 2025. 

Disney Imagination Garden, one of seven uniquely themed areas coming to the Disney Adventure, will transport guests into the pages of well-loved Disney stories alongside their favorite characters.

The vibrant, open-air space will be the emotional heart and central hub of the Disney Adventure. Planted within the garden, guests will discover a state-of-the art theatrical stage, two tasty quick-service eateries, an alluring bar and a selection of garden-view staterooms.

The Adventure Begins: Exploring Disney Imagination Garden

Recalling the pages of a classic pop-up storybook, Disney Imagination Garden’s playful, paper cut-out styled landscapes will be embellished with decorative foliage of blossoming flowers, shaped topiaries, tall trees and cascading vines. Among the decorative greenery and trellises, guests will be able to spot a mix of popular characters, iconography and fan-favorite Easter eggs from Disney, Pixar and Marvel stories. 

Families staying in designated Garden View staterooms, an all-new room category for Disney Cruise Line, will have access to a verandah providing unmatched views of the ship’s garden.The space will be anchored on one end by the theatrical Garden Stage and a charming courtyard on the other. A large, open “lawn” area will lead to a large staircase, framed by adorned arches and layers of leafy tree branches spotted with hanging lanterns, that will create amphitheater-style seating perfect for enjoying live entertainment on the Garden Stage — including Avengers Assemble!, an action-packed signature stage show starring Marvel Super Heroes and Villains.

A multi-story indoor garden atrium with intricate decor, green turf flooring, and balconies overlooking the central area. Lush plants and detailed architectural elements are visible throughout.

At the top of the grand staircase, guests will discover a quaint courtyard surrounded by lofty trees designed to look like storybook cut-outs featuring a few familiar animal pals. See anyone familiar? 

Orchestrating the courtyard’s symphony of storytelling will be a topiary of Sorcerer’s Apprentice Mickey Mouse with his wand held high as if conjuring this magical garden where beloved characters and stories bloom to life.

An indoor courtyard featuring ornate ironwork, lush greenery, a statue of a cartoon character, and a large mural of a castle, with tables and chairs under decorative parasols in the center.

Fit for Royalty: Disney Cruise Line’s First Castle at Sea

Presiding over Disney Imagination Garden will be a stunning storybook castle showpiece soaring three decks tall.

This beautiful artwork is inspired by castles, both real and imagined, from Disney stories and theme parks across the globe. Look closely to find nods to the Walt Disney Pictures castle, Sleeping Beauty’s castle at Disneyland Paris and Rapunzel’s castle, as well as influences from sketches done by legendary Disney artists such as Herbert Ryman, Frank Armitage and Eyvind Earle. The Disney Imagination Garden castle will sit above a decorative waterfall surrounded by a wave motif to celebrate Disney Cruise Line’s first castle at sea.

An indoor space features a large, ornate castle mural with a decorative archway. Plants and lanterns add to the whimsical ambiance, and there are multiple floors visible along the sides.

At the Family Table: Showcasing Regional Cuisines 

Disney Imagination Garden will be home to two quick-service eateries inspired by the animated worlds of Walt Disney Animation Studios’ “The Jungle Book” and “Moana.” With options for indoor and outdoor seating at both locations, guests who opt to dine on either patio will also have a view of the Garden Stage to enjoy that day’s entertainment.

A restaurant with ornate woodwork, round windows, patterned ceiling, wall art, and rows of neatly arranged tables and chairs. The space is well-lit with hanging lamps.
A dining room with wooden tables and chairs, decorative paddles on the walls, circular windows, and a mural featuring an ocean scene. The ceiling has a detailed pattern, and the floor is herringbone wood.
  • Mowgli’s Eatery – Serving Indian cuisine, including vegetarian and regional dishes with a special Disney twist, this casual eatery will be inspired by Mowgli’s epic journey in “The Jungle Book.”
  • Gramma Tala’s Kitchen – This inviting quick service restaurant will be inspired by the vibrant scenery and island flair of “Moana” with an imaginative menu showcasing the diverse flavors found throughout the Pacific and Asia.
