It is time … for brand-new details about the entertainment and menu for Pride Lands: Feast of The Lion King! 

The iconic songs and legendary moments of “The Lion King” will come to life at this first-of-its-kind dining experience celebrating the renowned music of the Walt Disney Animation Studios film.  

As families dine, a colorful ensemble of live performers will take the stage and present a musical journey through the award-winning soundtrack, retelling Simba’s story from cub to king. Charismatic storytellers, Mwongozo and Shaha, will share a timeless tale of family and fate through soulful narration, impeccable vocals and creative costume accessories that allow them to take on the personality and attributes of various characters. With an inspiring interpretive dancer and a trio of live musicians specializing in authentic African instruments, the show will be an upbeat and uplifting addition to an already spectacular meal. 

Readers, open your eye(s) … Now we’ve got a first look at The Sanctum, Disney Cruise Line’s first lounge inspired by the powerful sorcerers and mystical artifacts of Marvel Studios’ “Doctor Strange.”  

Taking cues from Doctor Strange’s New York Sanctum, this venue will feature mystical items designed to aid sorcerers in protecting the world. Guests will discover unique design details inspired by the shapes and symbols of the sorcerers’ Rune Shields, along with familiar icons like the Cloak of Levitation and spell books from the library of Kamar-Taj.  

The centrally located entertainment parlor will host a variety of activities throughout the voyage while offering guests of all ages a magical array of mocktails, cocktails, spirits and coffees. Guests will be dazzled by the mystic art of mixology through entrancing tableside beverage experiences and exclusive menu items that seemingly materialize from across the multiverse. 

Super heroes need style … and sweet treats! We’re headed to the brand-new Edna Á La Mode Sweets. 

Edna Mode’s lab, where the famed fashion designer from Pixar Animation Studios’ “The Incredibles” whips up outfits for the world’s most famous Supers, will be transformed into this one-of-a-kind confectionary aboard the Disney Destiny. Inspired by the “Auntie Edna” short film, the lab’s modern sewing equipment will be repurposed as sweet-making mechanisms to entertain Jack-Jack, the hilariously unpredictable super baby. 

Taking on the signature look of the films, the futuristic design blends techy features with sweet surprises for super fans. A collection of Edna’s sketches and high-fashion artwork will decorate the walls, with the front window showcasing costume models of the latest suits for Mr. Incredible and Elastigirl. Families will strike their best heroic poses with a fun sculpture of Jack-Jack and Edna working on her cookie recipe and may even spot the infamous Rocky the raccoon popping out of a garbage can nearby, attempting to get his paws on a plate of cookies. 

An incredible menu of handmade gelato, ice cream, candies and specialty treats will be served from Edna Mode’s lab, including cupcakes inspired by the heroes of the Parr family, decadent gourmet popsicles, homemade chocolate bark and — of course — an endless supply of fan-favorite Jack-Jack Cookie Num Nums.
