DISNEY will be coming to Tilbury this summer!

It has been announced that the Disney Cruise Line will be offering a number of short term 'staycation' sailings from UK ports for a limited time and Tilbury is one of the selected departure and arrival points.

The mini-cruises which meet Covid-19 guidelines as they remain within UK waters will feature entertainment -with multiple layers of health and safety measures. The Disney Magic cruise ship plans to sail mostly two and three night voyages, as well as limited four night round-trips from Tilbury, Newcastle, Liverpool and Southampton.

"Our teams are bringing tremendous ingenuity and fun to these new cruises, tailoring them with care to the times we are living in, yet filling them with everything you'd expect from Disney, from great service and entertainment to immersive dining experiences and magic for the whole family," said Thomas Mazloum, president of Disney Cruise Line.

Guests will remain aboard the Disney Magic throughout the sailing and favourite Disney stories, characters and entertainment will come to life during the cruises.

Disney Magic at Sea staycation sailings are expected to go on sale in April 2021 for sailings this summer, pending the issuance of U.K. government guidelines and authorisations. For more information click here.
