From 24 June to 20 September, Disney Cruise Line (DCL) will be taking over parts of Singapore’s Sentosa island – mirroring the seven themed zones of the Disney Adventure ship, which started sailing from Singapore on 10 March.

Called A Magical Island Adventure: Let’s Set Sail With Disney Cruise Line, the installations will be parked across popular stops including Palawan beach and Sentosa’s cable cars, to Instagram haven, Sensoryscape.

These spots will take inspiration from the Disney Adventure’s seven key zones: Disney Imagination Garden, Disney Discovery Reef, Marvel Landing, San Fransokyo Street, Town Square, Toy Story Place, and Wayfinder Bay. 

At Palawan, guests can check out the Marvel Landing attractions, Toy Story characters recast as giant bath toys, and a giant Baymax inflatable from Disney's Big Hero 6 inspired by San Fransokyo Street onboard the ship.

Come evening, there will also be neon-lit sculptures, inspired by the ship’s Infinity Bar.

Disney and Pixar hits such as Moana, The Little Mermaid, Finding Nemo, and Lilo & Stitch come alive at southernmost point of continental Asia – an islet located off Palawan Beach that is accessible via a wooden suspension bridge. In a first, the zone will open until 10pm for this period, allowing visitors to experience the magic when the area transforms into a luminous glow.

Sensoryscape will be lit with glowing pathways and a five metre-tall topiary installation – inspired by the ship’s Disney Imagination Garden_._

At the central beach bazaar, a splash pad will be set up with a 3.9 metre-tall shower head, surrounded by the Toy Story family such as Buzz Lightyear, Jessie and Woody.

Sentosa’s cable cars, dressed in iconic Disney Adventure prints, will complete the Disney magic in the sky.

Admission is free, except for night entry after 6.30pm to the southernmost point of continental Asia.
