Disney Cruise Line has unveiled the name and design theme of its newest ship, scheduled to debut late 2027.

The vessel—the fourth in Disney’s Wish class—will be called Disney Believe.

The “promise and possibilities” design theme will honor the “dreamers and doers who dare to pursue their own happily ever after,” according to the company.

Disney Believe will bring to life the magical worlds of “Encanto,” “Frozen,” “Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs,” “Moana” and “The Little Mermaid.”

Disney Cruise Line is in a growth phase, with plans to expand the fleet to 13 ships by 2031. Recent additions include Disney Adventure, which launched from Singapore this month, and Disney Destiny, which debuted in the fall of 2025.

Disney Cruise Line has a new class of ships coming in 2029 and plans to introduce Disney cruise vacations to Japan in 2029.
