Carnival’s cruises aren’t just about where you’re going, they’re about how much fun you’re having along the way. From jaw-dropping shows to laugh-out-loud comedy and toe-tapping music, there’s always something happening to keep the good times rolling. The energy on board is electric, with performances and activities that are designed to surprise, entertain, and bring people together, no matter their age or style.
You do not need any magic to enjoy a drink at Alchemy Bar®. This bar looks like an old-time pharmacy, and it is a fun place to try something new. The bartenders mix up special drinks using quality spirits, fresh juices, homemade syrups, and spices. They prepare each drink in front of you like an exciting show. You can pick a drink from the menu or let the bartender make a custom one just for you, with or without alcohol.
Bring your friends or family to Alchemy Bar® and enjoy something different. Here, you can try four small martinis in different flavors like Spicy Chipotle Pineapple or Peach Cosmopolitan. You can also ask the bartender to make a custom mini martini for you. After tasting a few, if you find one you really like, you can order a full-size version next time.
If you think art auctions are boring events with old men and expensive paintings, think again. On a Carnival® cruise, art auctions are fun and exciting. There are fast-paced auctions, low-price events under $500, and games like "Guess the Price." These auctions are not serious or dull. They even include free champagne to make things feel fancy, but the main goal is to have fun while trying to win a piece of art.
You do not need to be an art expert to enjoy these exhibitions. Carnival® makes art easy for everyone to enjoy, with no pressure to be fancy. You can join in fun events like art battles between men and women, or view displays featuring European artists or famous pop artist Peter Max. These art shows bring great art closer to you, even if you are not planning to buy anything.
Art can be emotional and fun, especially during Carnival®’s lively art games. These games bring art to life with exciting competitions. You can guess how much art is worth and see if you know the value. You do not need to spend any money to play, and there is always a chance to win a prize. It’s a fun way to enjoy art while your ship sails along.
This is where your vacation truly begins. The Atrium is the ship’s entrance and main area, full of excitement and energy. It has big windows for great views and is always full of music, whether it’s a live band or a DJ. You can enjoy events, grab a drink, or ask for help at the Guest Services desk. This is the heart of the ship and sets the tone for all the fun ahead.
Basketball on a Carnival® ship is more than just scoring points. As you move on the court, you get to feel the ocean breeze and enjoy the view. It’s more about the fun experience than just the game. Just like a cruise, the journey is what makes it special. Just a heads-up, even at sea, "traveling" in the game is still not allowed!
Feeling thirsty? At the Beer Station, you can serve yourself a cold beer whenever you want, lunch, dinner, or any time during the day. You can pour our special ThirstyFrog® Red beer or choose from other popular beers you may already know from back home. It’s a simple and easy way to enjoy a drink on your own.
Bingo on a cruise is full of energy and more fun than usual. You can win big prizes, including up to $5,000. There are fun bingo packages and even colorful daubers to mark your cards. Bring your friends along because the more people play, the more money there is to win. It’s loud, exciting, and full of surprises, not your average bingo game.
Blackjack is a simple and popular card game where the goal is to get as close to 21 as you can. Carnival® offers the classic version and fun new types like Fun 21™ and Face-Up Blackjack. With low starting bets, anyone can try their luck. Head to the table and see if you can win big while enjoying a fun, fast-paced game.
If you want some excitement, check out BOLT®, the first rollercoaster at sea. It’s an electric ride where you sit on a motorbike-style seat and zoom along a trackway above the ocean. You control the speed, so you can go fast for a thrill or take it easy for the view. It’s called the Ultimate Sea Coaster® for a reason, and it gives you a fun ride and amazing views at the same time.
The Carnival Players Club® is free to join. If you’ve played in the ship’s casino before, you might already be a member. If not, you can join easily if you're 18 or older. You earn points while playing table games and slot machines. The more points you get, the better the rewards, like free drinks and special events invite. Just keep your Sail & Sign® card in the slot machine or show it to the dealer while playing.
After a big win in the casino, head to the nearby Casino Bar to celebrate. It’s located just off the gaming floor, so it’s easy to find. You can enjoy your favorite drink, whether it’s beer, wine, or a cocktail. It’s a great place to toast your win with friends, family, or even some new people you meet on the ship.
Get ready for some fun with the casino prize games. You’ll need a steady hand and a bit of luck to win. The prizes are big, from cash to cool electronics. If you win, you’re allowed to get excited, cheer, dance, or whatever feels right. After all, you just beat the game and walked away with a prize!
Cheers! is the cruise’s prepaid bar package. That means you can enjoy drinks without looking at the bill each time. After you board, just sign up and pay one set price. Then enjoy as many drinks as the package allows, without worrying about the cost. Bartenders will serve your drinks with a smile. Just note that a few rules apply, but it’s still a great deal for drink lovers.
A cruise is a great time to enjoy sweet treats, and Cherry On Top™ is the perfect shop for that. This fun candy store is packed with different kinds of sweets, and it's also a nice spot to grab some food or fun gifts. You can even buy clothes or something special for someone you care about, or for yourself! Like cold desserts? On Carnival Vista® and Carnival Horizon®, you’ll find an ice cream counter where you can order a special creation or make your own using all kinds of mix-ins and toppings. And if you feel like eating ice cream with your hands, no problem — try the homemade ice cream cookie sandwich. Pick your favorite ice cream, your toppings, and they’ll build it just for you.
If you enjoy wine, the Cruise the Vineyards package is a good choice. You can pick from two wine packages that include selections from places like Italy, France, Chile, Germany, and more. Some are fruity like Merlot, and some are light and dry like Sauvignon Blanc. No matter what you prefer, there’s a good option waiting. The best part? You get to enjoy your favorite wines at a lower price. If you're eating in the Dining Room, ask your server for more details about this wine offer.
The famous TV game show with briefcases and big prizes is now on Carnival cruises. You’ve seen it on TV, now it’s your chance to play Deal or No Deal at sea. There are two ways to win: get picked to go on stage or win prizes right from your seat. You’ll need a card game to play. Buy one or save money by buying two or three. Each card gives you a shot to be picked for the stage game, where you could win up to $1,000. But even if you’re not picked, matching spots on your card can win you prizes too, even up to $5,000. You have to be 18 or older to play, but everyone can enjoy watching the fun unfold live.
If you love movies under the stars, head to Carnival’s Seaside Theater™. You’ll see sports and blockbuster films on a giant screen, all while sitting in a comfy poolside lounge chair. Or wear your swimsuit and enjoy the show from the pool. The huge screen gives everyone a great view, but it’s not just about watching, it’s about the breeze, the vibe, and enjoying a good movie night together. It’s a special way to relax and have fun. Think back, when was the last time you watched a movie like this?
Imagine turning a regular library into a Dr. Seuss® world. That’s what Dr. Seuss Bookville™ looks like, and you can only find it on Carnival ships. The space is full of color, fun furniture, and characters that look like they’ve jumped off the page. The room has lots of popular books for kids, but that’s not all. There are fun storytimes, learning activities, and visits from special characters. It’s a great place for kids and families to read and play together in a world filled with imagination.
Some questions in life are silly, like, can an octopus drink a cocktail under the sea? With Dr.Inks, Ph.D.™, the answer is yes. She’s a smart sea creature who enjoys clever drinks and fun times. This bar offers more than tasty drinks — it serves wild, creative cocktails like color-changing mixes, jellyfish drinks, and shots with cool toppings like seafoam or boba. It’s not just the flavors; it’s the look too. Check out Dr.Inks’ books and journals nearby, and don’t miss the live music at the bar. Even octopuses need to have fun sometimes.
On a cruise filled with water slides and dancing, there’s also a quiet place for great photos. Dreams Studio is where professional photographers help capture your best vacation moments. Whether you’re alone, with your partner, or in a group, you can book a photo session. They’ll take you to great spots around the ship, in the studio, or even on land during your trip. You’ll receive amazing printed or digital photos. Don’t forget to ask about packages, photo books, collages, and larger prints to keep your memories alive.
When the casino action gets exciting, Carnival helps you stay refreshed. With the Drinks On Us! program, once you earn enough points by playing, your drinks are free. That includes cocktails, beer, wine, sodas, and other nonalcoholic drinks. What’s even better is that Carnival lets you earn those drinks twice as fast as other cruise lines. You’ll also get full access to the casino bar menu. Just check in with the casino host when you’re on board to see how it works. Cheers to winning and sipping while you play!
Good beer shouldn’t be hard to find, and Carnival agrees. You can now drink Carnival’s original beers in cans on every ship. Some top picks include ParchedPig® West Coast IPA, ThirstyFrog® Caribbean Wheat, and ParchedPig® Toasted Amber Ale. Now you can take those flavors anywhere on the ship. New drinks include ParchedPig® Beach Lager, a light beer that tastes like a beach day. Plus, Carnival now offers vodka-based seltzers like ThirstyFrog® Piña Colada and Berry Hibiscus, just 99 calories each. And on select ships, try Heroes American Pale Ale on tap. Each pint helps military families through Operation Homefront with a $1 donation.
Family Feud™ has been a favorite TV game for a long time, but now you can play it on a cruise! It’s called Family Feud™ Live, and it’s only on Carnival ships. The game is played on a real Family Feud set, with the famous Face-Off podium and the fun Fast Money round. The cruise director hosts the show to keep things lively. If you want to join, make a team of five and sign up for an audition. Other guests will be watching, so bring your best energy! You can also just sit back and enjoy the show from the audience.

No matter how old you are, there’s something playful for you to join in. Carnival believes in fun for every person on the ship, and that’s why the fun never stops.
A cruise with Carnival is more than just fun, it can also help others. Groove for St. Jude is a dance event held on every cruise to support St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital®. When you join in and give a little donation, you help raise money for kids fighting cancer and other serious illnesses. You’ll get a t-shirt to wear, but don’t forget to bring your dancing shoes. The more you dance, the more people notice, and the more kids we can help together.
Havana Bar™ feels like a trip to old Cuba. It’s cozy during the day and full of life at night. This place brings back the charm of old Havana with its drinks, food, and music. You can sip on Cuban coffee or enjoy drinks like daiquiris and mojitos while taking in the ocean views. And when night comes, the music gets louder and the dancing starts. The fun keeps going all night long in this special corner of the ship.
If you like music, you’re in luck. Carnival ships are filled with live music all day and night. Talented performers come on board to bring great tunes to your vacation.

You can relax and enjoy something fancy at the same time in Loft 19™. It’s a quiet retreat on board, made for people who want to unwind. You can rest in the sun, take a dip in the infinity pool, or book a private cabana. There aren’t many cabanas, so book early! If you get one, you’ll enjoy nice extras like fresh fruit, cold towels, lunch brought to you, and a helpful concierge to take care of your needs.
Picture this, a perfect day playing golf, just you and the ball… plus a cactus, a treasure chest, and maybe even a windmill! Carnival’s mini golf course is full of fun surprises.

Vacations are for relaxing, but it’s also nice to stay in touch. Carnival gives you both options.

The piano bar is open for hours, so come by anytime and enjoy the music.
Pickleball might sound like a snack, but it’s actually a fun game! Think of it like small-sized tennis. On your Carnival cruise, there’s a spot just for playing. You’ll hear a “pop” sound as people hit the ball, that’s part of the fun. The game started in the 60s but is super popular now. Even if you’ve never played before, it’s easy to learn. If you’ve played ping-pong, badminton, or tennis, you’ll get the hang of it fast. Just stop by and join a game.

You know the game show with the briefcases stuffed full of money, a big red button and a mysterious banker phoning in deals? Yep, you’ve seen it on TV… and now you’ll find it on your next Carnival cruise. When it comes to Deal or No Deal at sea, there are actually TWO ways you could win — and only one of them is reserved for the lucky contestant up on the stage! It works like this: buy a game card (or save money by buying two), and each card you hold gives you another a chance to be randomly selected to take the stage and play the fan-favourite game of eliminating briefcases throughout the rounds for a shot at $1,000. But even if you’re not selected, you’re still in the game — matches on your game card let you move up the prize board. (And up to $5,000 goes to lucky cardholders in the audience!) Of course it’s 18+ to play, but everyone’s welcome to watch the fun from the studio audience. Deal?

There are two types of humans: land people and sea people. Most people are originally land people, unless they were born on a pirate ship or something. Lo and behold, there is nothing wrong with that. But becoming a sailor is a process, and a transformation takes place at the Caribbean Saillaway Party on the first Carnival cruise. It's actually pretty simple: show up..you're in the club and ready to party! Tie your feet up, find a cruise newcomer, and toast to the great times ahead.
