Step Into the Story: Pride Lands — Feast of The Lion King Debuts Aboard the Disney Destiny
Prepare to roar with delight — Pride Lands: Feast of The Lion King is more than a restaurant. It’s a fully immersive dining celebration of family, flavor, and one of Disney’s most beloved tales. This first-of-its-kind experience, exclusive to guests aboard the Disney Destiny, brings the heart of the African savannah — and the soul of The Lion King — to life with every course and chorus.
🦁 A Journey Into the Circle of Life
From the moment you enter the sun-dappled corridor, you’re transported into the wild majesty of the Pride Lands. Inspired by a traditional Boma — a place where communities gather to eat, sing, and share stories — the main dining space features:
- Thematic lighting and atmospheric effects that bring wildlife and landscapes to life
- A magical wall of panoramic windows that shift from sunrise to sunset during your meal
- A tiered central stage modeled after African drums, setting the scene for live musical performances
Whether you’re gazing at a glowing savannah or hearing the distant rumble of stampeding wildebeests, every detail invites you deeper into the story.
🎶 Be Prepared… for Dinner and a Show
Throughout your meal, talented musicians, singers, and storytellers take the stage to guide you through Simba’s legendary journey — from playful cub to rightful king. Using authentic African instruments, vibrant costumes, and interactive moments, the performance is as heartfelt as it is high-energy.
Featured musical moments include:
- “Circle of Life” and “Hakuna Matata” with lively audience participation
- A hero-villain mash-up of “I Just Can’t Wait to Be King” and “Be Prepared”
- A sweeping interpretive dance set to “Can You Feel the Love Tonight”
- A soul-stirring finale of “He Lives in You”, honoring both the sequel film and Broadway adaptation
Each act is designed to spark wonder across generations — bringing families together in laughter, rhythm, and awe.
🍽️ A Feast Fit for Royalty
Just as the music pays tribute to its African roots, the menu is a culinary adventure inspired by the continent’s rich traditions. Featuring a mix of Disney Cruise Line favorites and authentic African dishes, you’ll find:
- Bold spice blends and vibrant sauces
- Traditional grains and seasonal produce
- Elevated comfort foods with a flavorful twist
For longer voyages (five nights or more), guests will enjoy a second themed menu, offering new tastes and encore performances — because one Hakuna Matata moment is never enough.
