Redd and her crew rock out during one night on each Disney Wish sailing.
Pirate Night Sailings on the Disney Wish
Curious seafaring scallywags often wonder: “Do pirate nights happen on every Disney Wish sailing?”
Our answer? Aye, aye!
But there are a couple of details to keep in mind, me hearties. While each sailing turns salty with a piratey-fun celebration, the 3-night and 4-night sailings differ in style.
For 3-night sailings on the Disney Wish, enjoy a fabulous meal as usual at one of the rotational dining locations, then don your bandana and join the Pirate’s Rockin’ Parlay Party on deck. During 4-night sailings, you will be treated to a special pirate menu at dinner before joining the fun.
Get ready to unleash your inner pirate for an unforgettable night on deck, exclusive to the Disney Wish, Disney Treasure, and Disney Destiny. Leading the charge is Captain Redd, a fiery descendant of the iconic red-headed auctioneer from the Pirates of the Caribbean attraction, backed by her high-energy crew of guitar-shredding buccaneers.
Together, they deliver a setlist packed with classic rock hits, capped off with a bold, amped-up version of the classic anthem “Yo Ho (A Pirate’s Life for Me).” She’ll bring forth famous pirate captains, including Captain Jack Sparrow, as the night concludes in a sparkling fireworks display at sea.

As you board the Disney Wish for Halloween on the High Seas, you will enter not-so-scary regions beyond. The Grand Hall will be fully transformed into a Halloween wonderland centered around the Magical Pumpkin Tree.
Halloween on the High Seas brings all manner of fall fun onboard, including Mickey’s Mouse-querade, a lively “scare-a-bration” where kids of all ages are encouraged to dress up and dance alongside Disney characters in their Halloween best.
Throughout the cruise, you’ll find themed character meet and greets, featuring favorites like Minnie, Daisy, and Clarabelle dressed as the Sanderson sisters from Hocus Pocus—a perfect photo op for fans of the film.
Dive into hands-on Halloween activities, including spooky crafts and seasonal games that add a creative twist to the festivities. And of course, no Halloween celebration is complete without spine-tingling treats— indulge in themed desserts and beverages and enjoy trick-or-treating around the ship. It’s an exciting and festive experience packed with Disney magic at every turn.

Disney Wish Double-Dip Sailings
When Disney Cruise Line started offering sailings that visited Castaway Cay twice in one trip, guests started calling this the “double-dip” opportunity to soak in the Disney magic from ship to shore.
Now, with the new Lookout Cay at Lighthouse Point joining in the fun, a double-dip sailing can now offer two different shores with the same Disney quality of service, exciting offerings, and even an all-out Junkanoo celebration.
Slipping away to Castaway Cay and Lookout Cay isn’t just a tropical detour; it’s a curated extension of the Disney Cruise Line experience. Guests can expect the same level of storytelling, service, and immersion, all ashore a beautiful island destination designed by Disney.
Just like on the Disney Wish, Castaway Cay and Lookout Cay at Lighthouse Point are sectioned into specific areas to focus on the fun. Choose from family areas, adults-only lounging spaces, water play zones, and kids’ activities. From the smiling crew members who greet you on the dock, to the island cookout buffets, every detail is taken care of.
Note that all of the 2025 and 2026 double-dip sailings are 4-night sailings with a day at sea, and all sailings in 2025 are Very Merrytime Cruises.
