Earlier today, Disney Cruise Line emailed guests sailing on Alaskan, European, and Westbound Transatlantic cruises. Guests were informed that there would not be experiencing the 25th-anniversary fireworks.
For many guests, this was not a surprise. Disney does not have the Pirates fireworks show in Alaska or Northern Europe for environmental reasons. Other guests on Bahamian, Mediterranean and Transatlantic cruises were surprised to receive this information.
The Eastbound Transatlantic cruise that sailed earlier this month did get to experience an abbreviated 25th-anniversary firework show. The show was cut short because a guest entered the restricted area during the fireworks. The fireworks were stopped for safety reasons.
The 25th-anniversary fireworks show will be featured on most 4-night or longer sailings visiting The Bahamas, the Caribbean and the Mediterranean this summer.
Alaskan Cruises
We are so excited that you will be sailing with us during our Silver Anniversary at Sea. To commemorate our anniversary, we invite you partake in new offerings this summer. You will be able to meet favorite Disney Characters dressed in new, shimmering outfits created just for the anniversary. Plus, you can enjoy festive décor, limited-time food and beverage and special photo opportunities. And don’t forget to join some of your favorite Disney friends and the ship’s Captain and Cruise Director for a special anniversary toast.
As a reminder, fireworks are not offered on Alaskan cruises. During your Alaska sailing, Freezing the Night Away with Anna, Elsa, and Friends deck party will be presented instead of pirate night fireworks and 25 anniversary fireworks. This deck party features Anna, Elsa, and Kristoff- along with virtual visits from Sven, Olaf and the trolls! Delight in upbeat dancing, Frozen song favorites and Elsa’s powerful ice magic. Play reindeer games with Sven. Sing along to Olaf’s signature song “In Summer.” You’ll have a wintry blast because this deck party extravaganza is anything but chill!
Please be sure to check the Disney Cruise Line Navigator mobile app once onboard for all shows, activities, and times.
Sincerely,
The Cast and Crew
