    What nights will the Halloween night and Pirate night be on the 5-night Disney Dream sailing out of Ft. Lauderdale 9/11/25?

    Hiya pal, and welcome to planDisney! It sounds like you’re preparing for a frightfully fun adventure on your upcoming 5-Night Halloween on the High Seas Western Caribbean Cruise. With tropical ports of call and pixie-dusted surprises around every corner, you’re in for a voyage that’s equal parts spooky and spectacular.

    Let’s break down your theme nights so you can start planning those fa-boo-lous outfits! Night 2 (after a relaxing day at sea) is your Halloween celebration, complete with Mickey’s Mousequerade Party on deck. Costumes are welcome but not required, so whether you pack something spirited and spooky or stick with cruise casual attire, you’ll fit right in.

    Get ready to dress like a royal on Night 3, after your day in Cozumel. This is your Optional Dress-Up night, so feel free to don your finest for dinner and capture those magical photo ops with Characters dressed in their elegant best. Of course, if you prefer to keep it casual instead so you only have to pack the “Bear Necessities”, that’s perfectly fine too.

    Then, following another peaceful day at sea, break out your buccaneer best because you’ll experience Pirate Night on Night 4. The Disney Dream will dazzle with plenty of themed activities, a special menu, Character appearances, and, if the weather cooperates, fireworks at sea!

    Because you have so many unique celebrations on one sailing, I recommend downloading the Disney Cruise Line Navigator app before embarkation and keeping it handy during your trip! Not only will it provide schedules for parties, movies, and Character greetings, but it’ll also help you plan your evenings. Be sure to “heart” your favorite events in the app so it will send you reminders to ensure you don’t miss a minute of the magic.

    Wishing you a spooktacular voyage full of eerie enchantment and memories to last well beyond the witching hour. If you have any more questions as your cruise creeps closer, we hope you’ll come back and visit us here at planDisney.

    Bon voyage!
