    We are on a four night Disney cruise on the Disney Wish, setting sail on August 11. What night would the Pirates night dinner be?

    Ahoy there, Brock, and welcome to planDisney! Your magical adventure aboard the Disney Wish is just around the riverbend, so let me consult Magic Mirror to discover when you should keep your eyes peeled for pirates.

    It looks like if all goes according to plan, you’ll want to pull out your buccaneer best on Night 3 for Pirate Night. Not only will you and your fellow scalawags party like a pirate on deck after dinner, you’ll enjoy themed activities throughout the evening. While you don’t have to dress up, many Guests choose to look like they’re a part of Jack Sparrow’s crew; even many of your favorite Disney pals will be wearing their pirate garb too! And, if the weather permits, look to the stars after the Deck Party because you just might find fireworks lighting up the night sky.

    And while that’s the only theme night planned for your 4-night sailing, I thought you might be interested in knowing that the dinner attire on Night 2 (after your stop in Nassau) is “Dress-Up”. Again, this is completely optional, but I always find it’s a great opportunity to coordinate the family for some rare photos where everyone can get in front of the camera (thanks to the professional photographers onboard). In fact, if you want to make sure you don’t miss any memories while saving money, I suggest pre-purchasing the Unlimited Digital Photo Package.

    I can’t believe you’ll be on Castaway Cay in less than a month! I hope you enjoy plenty of long walks on the beach and flavored soft serve ice cream sandwiched between two cookies (my favorite post-lunch dessert from Cookies BBQ). And if you think of any other questions before you leave, know that you’re always welcome back here at planDisney.

    Bon voyage,
    Sami
