Disney Adventure will be setting sail from Singapore in 2025. And if you didn’t know that, you certainly will after paying a visit to the installations featuring Disney at Jewel’s Canopy Park, where there are various photo spots and activities for the year-end season, as part of The Gift of Disney Cruise Line.
The Gift of Disney Cruise Line at Canopy Park, Jewel
For The Gift of Disney Cruise Line, Disney has taken over Canopy Park at Jewel and decked it out with various installations inspired by the various zones that guests can look forward to onboard the Disney Adventure cruise ship which will be setting sail from Singapore in December 2025.
For the Disney adventure around Canopy Park, one of the key activities is a stamp rally where visitors can go around and pick up various stamps in an adventure booklet to redeem a Disney Cruise Line premium.

What to Expect at the Disney x Canopy Park Experience
There are a total of seven Disney installations at Canopy Park. These transform sections of Canopy Park with cute backdrops that highlight the various zone on the Disney Adventure cruise ship.
When you will first need to purchase tickets to Canopy Park. However, one important thing to note is that five of the installations are within the general Canopy Park area. Two of them are in the separately ticketed areas, specifically the Hedge Maze and the Mirror Maze.
To complete the Disney Cruise Line stamp rally, you will have to purchase the general Canopy Park admission and the Hedge Maze entry.
Going on a Disney Stamp Rally at Canopy Park
We purchased our tickets at the Canopy Park ticketing counter. Along with our tickets came a Disney Cruise Line sticker. Cute!
The first stop on our stamp rally with the Mirror Maze. Just inside, there is a photo spot with Elsa and Anna where you can snap a picture before arming yourself with a pool noodle and venturing into the mirror maze.
Interestingly, when we were there, the stamp rally counter at the Mirror Maze was setup outside of the ticketed area. However, we didn’t have a booklet to stamp on.
Undeterred, we ventured into the Hedge Maze.
We personally preferred the Hedge Maze to the Mirror Maze. There’s something about it being more open.
Just inside the entrance, there is a stamp rally counter with the Adventure Quest Card.
We picked up one and stamped it while learning about the Disney Adventure cruise ship’s Imagination Garden.
We were delighted to find some Disney characters decorating the Hedge Maze.
After finding Mickey the Sorcerer within the Hedge Maze, it was on into the main Canopy Park area.
Disney Photo Spots and Installations at Canopy Park, Jewel
At the entrance to Canopy Park, you can pick up a cute and complimentary Captain Mickey Mouse visor complete with ears to begin your adventure.
As we made our way around Canopy Park, the cute Disney photo spots beckoned to us.
From the Little Mermaid to the Avengers, each of the photo spots was inspired by a section within the Disney Adventure cruise ship. For example, the installation at the Discovery Slides was inspired by Disney Adventure ship’s Marvel Landing and the installation at the Foggy Bowls by San Fransokyo Street on the cruise ship.
The counters at the various photo spots have the stamps that you can chop onto the Adventure Booked. You can also learn more about what to expect onboard the Disney Adventure once it sets sail in December 2025. We dutifully completed our Adventure Quest Card as we went along.
One spot that we almost missed was with the Moana photo spot. This is located within the ticketed Canopy Park area but slightly off the main path. Don’t miss it if not you won’t be able to complete the stamp rally. We were also glad that we found it because it was right next to a spectacular vantage point to soak in a view of the Rain Vortex pouring down from the top of Jewel Changi Airport.
Right at the end of Canopy Park, just before the exit, there is a photo spot of the funnel of the Disney Adventure cruise ship. Decorated with boxes of gifts in front of it, it is a great place for a photo with family and friends.
Alternatively, there is another photo spot just after it where you can frame yourself within the ring of floaties that have been put together to form a not-so-hidden Mickey.
You may also notice an area with the side of ship and three dark portholes close to the entrance. You may be tempted to just walk straight past it but don’t. Instead, step up to each of the portholes and you never know who may just pop up to say “hi”!
Redeeming a Disney Collectible
After collecting the seven stamps, we made our way down to Basement 1 where there is a redemption counter. Handing in our card, the counter staff stamped the card with the eighth stamp and gave us a collectible poster.
In addition, you can enter in to a draw for a chance to be amongst the first to sail on the Disney Adventure cruise ship in 2025. You will make a case for it in 50 words or less on a card attached to the Adventure Quest Card.
Overall, the Disney stamp rally will be a fun activity for young kids as they get to explore Canopy Park and go about collecting the stamps. There is something about chopping a booklet feels like an accomplishment for kids! Just bear in mind that you have to purchase admission to more than just the Canopy Park main area to complete the stamp rally.
The Disney installations are fun backdrops for visitors to take pictures, for memory’s sake, with your favourite Disney characters.
