Disney recently announced the name of their newest cruise ship, and while we got a few details, they’ve been pretty quiet on news, probably because the ship is still in the building phase. Lucky for us, we found new photos of the cruise ship, and it’s making us even MORE excited to set sail.

Say hello to the Disney Believe! Isn’t it looking so great? This is the ninth ship for Disney Cruise Line and the fourth in the Wish-class series. We’re so glad to see these pictures thanks to a LinkedIn post.

It’s set to debut in late 2027 and will have stories represented like Encanto, Frozen, Moana, and The Little Mermaid. There will also be Pixar, Marvel, and Star Wars stories incorporated!

The Disney Believe’s motif is “one of promise and possibilities.” Disney said, “Onboard the Disney Believe, powerful tales of characters who believe in themselves and their dreams will come to life in exciting new ways. From the mystical worlds of Encanto and Frozen, to the wishing wells of Snow White, to the depths of the sea with Moana and The Little Mermaid, there are endless stories waiting to be discovered and new chapters ready to unfold onboard.”

Disney recently debuted two new ships, which we’ve been thoroughly obsessed with. The Disney Destiny launched in 2025 and is heroes-and-villains themed. From the details of the rooms to the incredible food, we were in cruise ship heaven. This one sails out of Florida.

The Disney Adventure sails from Singapore and debuted in March 2026. The ship has gorgeous details and a lot of references to Marvel, including attractions on the deck to enjoy.

We can’t wait for the Disney Believe to set sail, and you best believe (haha, get it?) that we will be there reporting every detail along the way. Make sure you keep following Disney Food Blog for more Disney news.
