Brand New Experiences Coming to Disney Wonder this Fall, Disney Parks Blog Unboxed - Dooney & Bourke

Brand New Experiences Coming to Disney Wonder this Fall:

The Disney Wonder will be getting some new entertainment and experiences this fall. This will include the Marvel Super Hero Academy, a new jazzy restaurant called Tiana's Place Restaurant, an English Pub exclusive for the adults, and many stern to hull enhancements. Along with the Marvel Super Hero Academy more imaginative and fun experiences for the children themed to Frozen, Disney Junior, and Toy Story. The Disney Wonder will hit dry dock in Candiz, Spain for the work from September 9 through October 23.

Inside the new Marvel Super Hero Academy inside the Oceaneer Club, kids will enjoy extraordinary adventures as they play an integral role along with mentorship of Marvel's greatest super heroes. The young trainees will learn the value of teamwork, bravery and problem solving through hands-on play and programs.

Spider-Man will appear to help the children hone their spider senses by perfecting their skills of reflex, speed, and sharp minds. Other Marvel favorites will be available to interact through the digital world. One program will allow children to control the movement of the characters on screen to practice their super hero skills like repulsor blasting (Iron-Man).

Here is a description of the remaining new experiences coming to Disney's Oceaneer Club aboard the Disney Wonder:

• Frozen Adventures is where fun takes the form of imaginative play and hands-on activities. On the digital screen, Olaf leads summery games with a wintery twist and a sing-a-long of “In Summer.”
• In another festive activity, young guests prepare for a coronation and receive a truly royal and in-person visit by Anna and Elsa.
• Club Disney Junior features favorite Disney Junior characters, storytelling and games. During one activity, Doc McStuffins pays a visit to the club to help children diagnose and treat the stuffed animals.
• Andy’s Room where kids feel toy-sized in the multi-level play space themed to the Disney•Pixar “Toy Story” trilogy. As a special treat, Woody appears in person to join youngsters in a hoedown and Jessie stops by to join in a scavenger hunt.

Tiana's Place Restaurant will be inspired by one of our favorite princesses in Princess Tiana from "Princess and the Frog." The restaurant will transport you to an era of southern charm, spirited jazz, and street party celebrations. Guests will be treated to New Orleans dining and entertainment with music that will create a French Quarter supper club atmosphere.

The menu will be inspired by Tiana's favorite recipes that bring flavors and ingredients of the Louisiana bayou. Her personal touch will be evident in the menu, the entertainment, and throughout the entire restaurant. 

In the adult district of the ship a brand new pub that will invite guests to jaunt to an authentic English tavern. The space will be adorned with dark woods, plush leather furniture, brass accents, and will have subtle nods to Disney films set in London with artwork and props. British and specialty beers will create the perfect atmosphere where the adults can sip a pint or just sample a brew especially made for the pub.

Here is what else will be enhanced on the Disney Wonder from stem to stern:

• After Hours – a new adult district featuring the English pub, an all-new night club and a shiny new model of the popular Cadillac Lounge
