    Does everyone dress up for the theme nights on a Disney cruise? If you choose not to dress up for formal night, can you still dine at the restaurants?

    Welcome back to planDisney, Melissa! Your magical vacation on Disney Cruise Line is just around the riverbend.

    Some Guests will follow the themes of the night, and others won't. I have seen sequined attire on formal night, but also casual attire on formal night. In the rotational dining restaurants, the dress code is not strict. If you will be dining in one of the adult-exclusive restaurants, you will need to adhere to the dress code, though. Formal or semi-formal attire is recommended. You can also wear dress-casual attire with a polished look. For example, dress pants, jeans in good condition, collared shirts, dressy tops, and lifestyle shoes are acceptable. If you are having brunch in Palo or Palo Steakhouse, dress shorts are also acceptable. T-shirts, swimwear, and sports attire are not permitted.

    Melissa, I hope this packing list will give you some ideas as you prepare for your upcoming cruise. If you have any other questions, sail back to planDisney for answers. We are happy to help!

    Bon Voyage!
