Ahoy there, April!
Welcome aboard planDisney! Enjoying the swashbuckling fun of Pirate Night
on the Dream while sailing through the Mediterranean sounds like the kind of story Captain Hook himself would want to steal for his logbook. What could be better than trading views of the sparkling Med for a night of yo-ho-ho adventure onboard?
The not-so-magical news is that Disney has not yet finalized the entertainment schedule for your sailing, so I can’t give you a definitive answer just yet. Typically, schedules are released no later than 130 days prior to embarkation—though, like the Mad Hatter’s tea parties, the timing doesn’t always run by the clock. If Disney follows the same rhythm as 2025, it is very likely you’ll enjoy
Pirate Night during your cruise. One thing to keep in mind: due to local laws and regulations in Europe, fireworks at sea are usually not available, so the evening’s magic is more about costumes, music, and pirate festivities onboard.
Now, this is just an estimate based on itineraries from this year, but here’s a peek at how nights may unfold:
• Day 2 (at sea) –
Formal Night• Day 3 (Cagliari) – Pirate Night
• Day 7 (at sea) – Semi-Formal Night
Once your booking window opens for Port Adventures, adult-exclusive dining, and onboard activities, the
Disney Cruise Line Navigator app becomes your treasure map. A little insider tip—check “My Plans” for
Pirate-Themed Makeovers. The day you see those appear? That’s your Pirate Night! It’s the perfect way to uncover the secret without needing a spyglass.
I hope this helps steer you in the right direction as you get ready for your Mediterranean adventure. Planning these details always makes the countdown feel even more exciting, and before you know it, you’ll be standing on deck with a sea breeze in your hair and adventure in your sights.
Sea ya real soon as summer waves goodbye and autumn magic begins to shine,
