We are learning a LOT about the Disney Wish!

Today, Disney is hosting the “Once Upon a Disney Wish” event to reveal a LOT of details about the upcoming Disney Cruise Line ship. We’ve already learned when we’ll be able to book our first voyage aboard, and now we know about a surprising and exciting offering on the ship!

During the event, Disney referenced an “out of this galaxy,” experience on board with Star Wars: Hyperspace Lounge. Um…a STAR WARS LOUNGE!? ON A CRUISE SHIP!? That’s SO neat!

During the day, families will be able to “experience this interstellar watering hole.” But in the evening the lounge will “jump to lightspeed” and become an adults-only space. 

At night the lounge will offer “otherworldly concoctions,” including “signature beverages inspired by the films.” We can’t help but think about the drinks at Oga’s Cantina in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge. Perhaps the offerings will be similar or maybe they’ll be entirely original space sips! There will also be interactive tasting experiences!

The interior will be designed with sleek, metallic detailing inspired by “lavish star cruisers” similar to Dryden Vos’ ship in Solo: A Star Wars Story.

But, you won’t just be there to sip some otherworldly drinks. When you enter this lounge, you’ll “embark on a space-jumping tour of the Star Wars galaxy.” While guests sip their drinks, the virtually-enhanced space will transport them (using hyperspace, of course) to iconic Star Wars locations “from the eras of the Republic, Empire and First Order” including Tatooine, Mustafar, Batuu, Coruscant, and more. As you “travel” through the spaces, sensational scenes will unfold just beyond the ship’s panoramic viewport.

Out the window, guests will see everything from serene vistas to action-packed encounters, making for an immersive story-driven lounge experience. Add surround-sound audio and a holotube that presents holographic models of nearby ships and you’ve got a very cool space.

During a question and answer session, one Disney Cruise Line official also noted that he could only imagine a little bit of “robotic magic” will be part of the experience as well. Disney hasn’t shared what that means yet, but we did recently hear about how animatronic bartenders were once considered for part of Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge. We can’t wait to see more about what “robotic magic” might come to Star Wars: Hyperspace Lounge.

Also, we want to note that this space sounds similar in some ways to Skyline, an adults-only lounge space we’ve seen on some other Disney Cruise Line ships that utilizes special technology to give guests “windows to the world.” In Skyline, guests at the lounge could look out at different cities every 15 minutes as the windows magically transformed from one city to the next.

It sounds like Star Wars: Hyperspace Lounge will be somewhat similar, but we’ll just have to wait for Disney to share more details to get a complete look at exactly what the space will be like.
