Disney Lookout Cay at Lighthouse Point Completion
Thomas Mazloum, President of New Experiences Portfolio and Disney Signature Experiences, has shared new images of Disney Lookout Cay at Lighthouse Point in celebration of the Disney Cruise Line destination’s completion. One image shows the Goombay Cultural Center, which will be a hub for a Junkanoo festival celebration. Also in the image are members of a Junkanoo group styled in traditional festival dress. They will perform in a Junkanoo parade for guests visiting Lookout Cay.
Along with the images, in a post on LinkedIn, Mazloum congratulated the teams involved with the creation of Lookout Cay, including native Bahamians, Walt Disney Imagineering, and Disney Cruise Line for the achievement. You can read his note below:
“Today was a big day for all of us at Disney Cruise Line.
For years, our teams at Disney Cruise Line and Walt Disney Imagineering have collaborated with the incredible community in The Bahamas to bring our second island destination to life. And today, we gathered alongside government officials and local leaders to celebrate the completion of Disney Lookout Cay at Lighthouse Point!
We cannot wait to welcome guests to the island when the Disney Magic arrives for the very first time next week!
Congratulations to all who made this dream a reality.”

The photos include a new look at Mickey and Minnie in their costumes designed by Bahamian fashion designer, Theodore Elyett. The outfits are designed with references to The Bahamas, with straw details, fruit, and conch shells incorporated into their looks.
Disney Lookout Cay at Lighthouse Point is located on the island of Eleuthera and is the second of Disney Cruise Line’s private destinations. It will open for cruises on June 6.
