While there isn’t a Disneyland in Australia, a Disney-themed cruise is coming! The Disney Magic cruise ship “Magic at Sea” will set sail in Australia and New Zealand for the first time in 2023.
Specifically, from October 2023 to February 2024, the Disney Magic will offer 2-night, 3-night, 4-night, 5-night, and 6-night cruises from Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, and Auckland.
Magic at Sea
Departing from four home ports – Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, and Auckland – the “Magic at Sea” itinerary features themes from Marvel, Pixar, and Star Wars.
The Sydney station will depart on October 28, 2023, and the last station will depart on February 12, 2024.
With voyages ranging from 2 to 6 nights, passengers will embark on a magical journey and immerse themselves in the world of Disney.
Disney characters can be found throughout the cabin, along with live music performances. Guests can also enjoy cuisine from around the world inspired by different Disney movies.
Musical performances include “Frozen”; another show will be selected from Peter Pan, Pinocchio, Cinderella, and Aladdin; and there will also be a Golden Mickeys-themed show. Every night, there will be fireworks and a pirate-themed party.
