Ahoy, Diana!
Thanks for cruising by the Moms Panel with your question.
I'm so excited to hear you're thinking about back-to-back cruises on the beautiful
Disney Dream - what fun! It's always so sad to have a Disney Cruise come to an end, but you'll get to restart your vacation and experience the magic all over again!
While the main stage shows will be the same for both sailings, it's possible you may have a different variety act scheduled to appear during your cruise. Each cruise usually has a featured entertainer perform, either on the main stage, in the adult district, or both. We've seen a juggler, a ventriloquist, and even a hypnotist on our cruises. (I was one of the volunteers for the hypnotist - we have crazy fun memories of that night, for sure!)
I would love to have a chance to see some of my favorite live stage shows twice on a back-to-back itinerary! If you choose to opt out of a repeat show, you can always schedule dinner at the adult-exclusive restaurants
Palo or
Remy on those evenings, or even a late afternoon visit to
Senses Spa. With no need to rush to get ready for the show, you could lounge on the pool deck for an extra hour or two before dinner, or catch a movie in the
Buena Vista Theatre.
I hope this helps with your planning! Please let us know if we can help answer any further questions as you plan your awesome adventure with Disney Cruise Line! - Diane W.
