Latest Updates From the Disney Treasure: Disney Treasure Celebrates Conveyance from Meyer Werft Shipyard
Welcome to the official ship’s log for the Disney Treasure! Follow along for an exclusive look into the complex ship building process as we document all the important milestones of the Disney Treasure’s journey. The Disney Treasure’s story began with the start of construction in January of 2023 and has continued to evolve ever since. Return here for the latest developments in the Disney Treasure’s progress as the world patiently waits for Disney Cruise Line’s newest ship to officially set sail in 2024. The adventure is just beginning!
Make way for the Disney Treasure! Today, the Disney Treasure completed another milestone when it was guided by tugboat down the Ems River from Meyer Werft shipyard toward open water for the first time. The ship made its way passed waving spectators, who lined the river’s shores to celebrate its departure. During the next few days, the ship will go through a series of rigorous tests, known as sea trials. The captain of the Disney Treasure, Captain Marco, will step onboard to help oversee the trials and ensure the Disney Treasure is ready for its upcoming transatlantic journey.

“After an amazing experience at D23 a few weeks ago, where we announced the addition of four new ships to our Disney Cruise Line fleet, I had the opportunity to travel to Toronto, Canada and visit the Disney Cruise Line and Disney Live Entertainment teams in rehearsal for the newest stage show, “Disney The Tale of Moana.”
This is the first theatrical adaptation of Moana, and I’m proud of the attention that we’re putting on the story – as well as on the culture of the Pacific Islands. This is a brand-new show that will debut on board the Disney Treasure, setting sail for the first time later this year.
This rehearsal facility is impressive. With 52,000 square feet of space, including 19 studios, this facility has been the home to more than 150 casts prior to shows and other entertainment debuting on board our ships.
Despite not having costumes, sets, makeup, props or lighting in the rehearsals yet, it’s easy to see that this new show is going to be incredible, and I can’t wait for you to see it.”
