1.      Tinker Bell is on the bow of the Believe

2.      Woodie and Buzz are on the stern of the Believe

3.      Moana and her pal Pua will be the Grand Hall statue.

4.      We can assume 2 of the 3 Main Dining restaurants will be the same, 1923 and World of Marvel.

a.      This show is on all the other Wish-Class ships

6.      Believe will join the fleet at the end of 2027

b.     Encanto, Peter Pan, Brave, Wish and Coco are some of my guesses

4.      Themes of at least some of the Lounges

7.      What will be the theme of the Kids Club

8.      What will be the theme of the Sweet Shop

What is current construction status of the Believe at right now.

1.      The Midship Giga Block is complete and sitting outside of Myer Werft Shipyard

a.      This includes the Grand Hall, 1923, some of the shops and any venue in that area

b.     This area is not completed as of yet

                                                              i.      Hull and basic interior Construction is done

                                                            ii.      Internal work like painting, wall coverings, carpet, lighting, artwork, decor, and furniture is not in as of yet

                                                          iii.      Decks with cabins have the cabins and they are fully completed with paint, carpet, furniture, and artwork

                                                          iv.      The majority of the finishing work will be done after “Sea Trials” when the ship is officially turned over to DCL

                                                            v.      After Sea Trials the ship will dock and Disney will start to add their final touches to the ship while Meyer Werft finishes up the last bits

                                                          vi.      The things Disney itself will do are things that are highly tied to intellectual property and must be done by Disney and nobody else

                                                         vii.      Some of the finishing work will be done while they sail across the Atlantic

2.      They are working on the next Gigablock

3.      While the hull construction continues and public areas are being constructed at Meyer Werft the Cabins are being constructed at an offsite facility

4.      Fully constructed cabins will be added to the hull as it is being built

Cabins are built offsite and shipped to the shipyard fully ready  have been painted, carpeted, furnished, and artwork hung

First Gigablock of Disney Believe Floats Out

First Gigablock of Disney Believe Floats Out

From DisneyParksBlog - Disney Believe Ship Log

September 18^th, 2026

Disney Cruise Line’s newest ship, the Disney Believe, is taking shape at the Meyer Werft Shipyard in Papenburg, Germany! Earlier today, the first of three gigablocks was completed and floated out of the shipyard, marking an important step in the construction process for the 2027-expected ship.

 

In case you’re wondering what a Gigablock is, you can think of building a cruise ship like putting together a giant 3D puzzle. Instead of building the whole thing in one piece, shipbuilders construct the vessel in large sections – gigablocks – complete with walls, plumbing, and wiring. Once the sections, which can weigh over 31,000 tons, are finished, they’re welded together like puzzle pieces to complete the ship.

The first section contains the midship of the Disney Believe, which is home to some familiar places like the Grand Hall. The next gigablock to be constructed will be the forward portion, followed by the aft.

 

Stay tuned to the Official Ship’s Log for more construction updates as the Disney Believe gets closer to setting sail for the first time.
