Walt Disney Imagineering shared a first look at the Storybook Castle sculpture in the Imagination Garden onboard the Disney Adventure.
Imagination Garden Storybook Castle
The first Disney castle at sea, the fantastical Storybook Castle — standing three decks tall as the centerpiece of the Imagination Garden — was shared on the Disney Parks Blog:
The Walt Disney Imagineering team drew inspiration from the iconic castles featured in beloved Disney films and Disney Parks around the world. The paper cut-out style, reminiscent of a pop-up storybook, invites guests to step into their own story.
Like its landlocked brethren, the Storybook Castle features the Disney family crest along with several Easter eggs, including a hidden Mickey. The decorative waterfall cascading from the base is an homage to the animated Walt Disney Pictures opening.
Imagination Garden
One of the unique spaces on the Disney Adventure, the Imagination Garden is the ship’s open-air atrium, filled with “playful, paper cut-out styled landscapes” and vibrant greenery.
Along with Storybook Castle, it will have a state-of-the-art theatrical stage, two quick-service eateries, a bar, and a selection of new Garden View staterooms with verandahs overlooking the space.
Disney Adventure
The Disney Adventure, the only Adventure class ship in the Disney Cruise Line fleet, will be based in Singapore. Originally set to sail in December 2025, the Disney Adventure’s maiden voyage was delayed to March 10, 2026.
