Everybody’s welcome to come and learn how to make a variety of easy projects, all expertly designed by the creative minds at Michaels. These projects may include bracelets, key chains, or even picture frames.
Onboard Internet
Carnival cruise gives you options for just how in-touch you want to stay. Looking to share every moment as it happens, hashtag it up and get all the Likes. You’re gonna love an onboard WiFi, which lets you do the social thing and connect your phone, tablet or laptop wherever you are on the ship. Or are you looking to check in every now and then have a look at your email, check the news and send a note home? Stop in to your ship’s Internet Café, sit down at a computer and enjoy the kinda-connected life.
Pixels
Since photos are a big part of how you and your crew will remember your cruise, you can rely on Carnival’s photo-pros to bring your fun side into focus lighting and background, shutter speed and aperture know-how goes into every shot they take. You’ll find the pros all over the ship: when you’re gathered around the dining room table, as you step off the ship at your destination and plenty of times in between. You’ll even find creative and fun backdrops around the ship that you can casually stop by and do a quick pose in front of!
Sailaway Party
There are two kinds of people - land people and sea people. Unless they were born on a pirate ship or something, pretty much everybody starts out as a land person. And look, there’s nothing wrong with that. But there’s a process for becoming a sea person, and the Caribbean Sailaway Party on your first Carnival cruise is where the transformation occurs.
Video Arcade
Carnival's video arcade boasts a huge array of games, and is open to players of all ages, all night and all day. So get some tokens from the vending machine and let the fun times begin. Challenge your friends to a game, or just see if you can beat the top score.
Cherry on Top
A cruise is a perfect time to treat yourself to something sweet, and Cherry On Top™ happens to be the perfect place. You'll find this well-stocked candy-and-more store not only great for enjoying some of your confectionery favorites but the place to pick up food and apparel gifts for that special someone, even if admitting it that someone happens to be you!
Family Feud Live
Family Feud set, right down to the iconic Face-Off podium, plus all the excitement of Fast Money. Since we know how much entertainment the host can bring to the game, Family Feud Live is emceed by none other than your cruise director. So if you’re game, sign up your team of five for an audition.
Art Exhibitions
Even if you don’t “know” much about art, of course, you can still tell when you like something - who needs a refined palette to know when a piece is good? Carnival leaves snobbish cultural pretensions ashore and makes art something that everyone can enjoy with a series of events designed to bring great art where it belongs - to the people.
Art Auction
A room full of too-serious old men, many wearing monocles, paying top-dollar for priceless antique works of art. If that’s the “art auction” that comes to mind, adjust your expectations before your Carnival cruise! Unlike a stodgy auction house, your vacation features a series of auction events designed to turn high art into high fun. From the rapid-fire ‘Lightning’ action to the cheap thrills of the ‘under $500’ event, there are plenty of chances to try your hand at bringing home something great and have a blast doing it.
Art Games
Art is full of emotion, and as your Carnival ship sails, you’ll have the chance to experience art truly in motion… during lively onboard art games! Nobody would mistake this vacation for a ‘still life’ — these action-packed competitions truly ‘pop,’ giving you a chance to try your hand at ‘impressionism’- showing what you know about the dollars and cents of art valuation.
Art Seminars
Go from ‘normal vacationer’ to ‘world-traveling art whiz’ in one cruise flat - Carnival offers such a variety of educational and enlightening seminars that carnival cruises should hand out Art History degrees at the end of each cruise! You may not be an accredited university, but your cruise features an ‘Art 101’ lecture series designed to be your entrance into this vibrant world.
Dream Studio
On the same ship with the waterslides and conga lines is actually a photographic oasis. Everybody looks their best, smiles their biggest smiles on vacation and at Dreams Studio the professional photographers beautifully capture this side of individuals, couples, groups or families.
Games
Play is essential to childhood development - that’s what cognitive scientists believe! Carnival would add that play is important to ALL ages, so onboard games are a huge part of the Carnival experience for the young and old! From physical challenges to scavenger hunts to the very appropriate Battle of the Ages - the trivia game that actually pits kids against adults - Carnival puts the “all” in “fun for all.”
Holidays Aboard
Every Carnival cruise is a celebration - especially on holidays - but the truly go all-out for a few special dates throughout the year. This makes the ship a great place to call home for a while, gathering with your friends and family. For one, there’s Halloween, where costumes at sea are just the beginning. When Thanksgiving comes along, it calls for a feast with absolutely no cooking on your part. Christmas festivities are a big deal, combining solemn traditions with jolly fun, while Grinchmas opens the book on wacky and whimsical with the green one himself, plus the rest of the Dr. Seuss crew.

Outdoor Activities
Outdoor Activities
Go ahead and call Summer Landing “the greatest chill spot at sea” and It will be right there with you, any time of year!
Serenity Adult Only Retreat
Somebody at Carnival knows just what you need, and it's pretty much exactly the Serenity Adult-Only Retreat. Look, you'll still be on the same ship as the kids, the hoopla, and all the Carnival-style excitement, but you could easily forget because when you’re at Serenity you could not be further from it all.
Bolt : Ultimate Sea Coaster
Aboard Mardi Gras, you’ll meet BOLT the fastest - and first! - rollercoaster at sea. Strap in and zoom your motorcycle-style speed machine around an open-air course high, high above sea level.
Waterworks
For those who flock to waterparks just ready to make a splash, It’d suggest sliding on over to WaterWorks aboard Mardi Gras. Three large-scale spiralling slides, a giant dumping bucket, twin racing slides and more — you know, the works — are all practically overflowing for your hydro-delight. When you spot the slides on board you’ll see that they mean business… though cruise recommends checking them out from the inside.
Basketball
You may think basketball is all about the hoop and getting the ball in there, but you may not have ever played on a Carnival ship. Here, it’s all about the journey to the hoop: the view and the sea breeze you take in as you drive your way past defenders to put the rock in the bucket. Say, that actually reminds us of cruising the destinations may rock, but it’s all about getting there.
Bolt: Ultimate Sea Coaster
Aboard the Mardi Gras you’ll meet BOLT: the fastest and first rollercoaster at sea. Strap in and zoom your motorcycle-style speed machine around an open-air course high, high above sea level. You know how on most rollercoasters actually, never mind. Forget other coasters because this all-electric thrill ride puts you in the driver’s seat. That means you actually get to control how fast you go, so hit the gas and try for the fastest time, go for the biggest thrill plus some amazing 360° ocean views! That’s why its call this the Ultimate Sea Coaster.
Dive In Movies
Park yourself in front of the big screen - the really big screen - and settle in for some real stars at Carnival Seaside Theater. From the comfort of your poolside lounge chair, or even the pool itself, you'll enjoy sporting events and recent blockbuster movies think Comedy, Action & Adventure and Date Night.
Groove For St. Jude
Any cruise can move you, but a Carnival cruise can move you to support a great cause like St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital! Come on out to Groove For St. Jude - where all are grooving on every sailing - and make a small donation to help to move towards finding cures and saving children with cancer and other life-threatening diseases.
Jogging Track
Jogging may not immediately come to mind when you think of things to do at sea, but it probably should. You don’t have to walk on water, you just have to get on a Carnival cruise. Jogging tracks are available on almost all Carnival ships, and are even padded for long-distance comfort.
Loft 19
Loft 19 is proof: a retreat-style experience right there on your Mardi Gras cruise. Soak up the sun all day from the comfort of a lounge chair or Loft 19’s own infinity pool, or opt for private time in the shade by renting a cabana. Just a few are available, so reserve yours early for the day or for the voyage and you’ll unlock extra indulgences like fresh fruit, chilled towels, lunch delivery and attentive concierge service.
Mega Deck Party
If a deck party has the power to bring together friendly rivals BlueIguana and RedFrog, you can imagine what the Mega Deck Party can do for vacationers like you! Show up to the open-air Lido Deck pool area ready to have a good time under the stars. The ship’s DJ, cruise director and entertainment staff will be on-hand to get things going… and keep everyone moving.
Mini Golf
Imagine a perfect day out on the links, the golfer's zen of the ball, the hole and nothing in between but well-manicured fairway... plus one cactus, a treasure chest... and wait, is that a windmill in the way? Just who designed this course anyway? Whoever it was, they had one thing in mind - maximum fun for mini-golfers, big and small! That's precisely why you'll find a course on every Carnival ship, where you can hit the holes and take in everything you’d expect, like the sights and the sounds... plus the seagulls.
Pools
Whether today's the day for a bit of a dip, a dash of splash or even some swimming- or just a serious poolside lounging session - your Carnival cruise has just the pool for you. In fact, pools are so important to a great cruise that we designed many of th ships to have two of them.
Skycourse
The chance to complete an awesome challenge, high above it all… now that's what you want in a good ropes course. An awesome ropes course, however, will let you do all that with a cool sea breeze and a view to match! Not sure that navigating a high-up-there challenge is for you? Did we mention that on SkyCourse you'll be safely strapped in, emboldening you to take on the kinds of challenges you may not normally feel up to? Here everyone — even kids — become thrill-seekers, testing their ability to make their way around the course.
Twister Waterslide
Spot the spiraling Twister Waterslide atop your Carnival ship and you can be sure that your vacation comes complete with twists, turns and squeals of thrilled delight. Countless gallons of water rush through the entire length of this slide, so you're by no means dry when you start, but by the time you reach the end - hundreds of feet later - you reach new levels of soaking, splashing down in that classic waterslide photo-finish: hands-up, eyes wide and nothing but exhilaration on your face.
Volleyball
A Carnival cruise is all about service. There’s usually someone to take you dinner order, make your bed, bring you drinks, give massages at the spa, and so on. In fact, there’s actually very little aboard where you’re left to fend for yourself. Volleyball is an activity we’d definitely term to be - pardon the pun - self-service. That said, whatever your serving style happens to be -overhand, underhand, sidearm - you can take to the court and get the play started your way.
Summer Landing
Go ahead and call Summer Landing the greatest chill spot at sea.
Sport Square
Sport Square is featuring an entire mini-golf course, full-court basketball and a ropes course.
Patio Pool
Patio Pool.
Pickleball
This game’s history goes way back to the 60s but it’s gotten pretty popular lately, and best of all your cruise is a great time to learn the simple rules and take a whack at this game.

Kids & Teens
Kids & Teens
To kids, arts and crafts is a fun way to spend an afternoon. Camp Ocean presents plenty of creative opportunities for budding Picassos to master Monets, and kids can express themselves with all kinds of crafts from painting to jewelry-making. You know, future living-room-museum pieces.
Build A Bear Workshop At Sea
A Carnival cruise gives kids plenty of chances to make new friends, but never before quite like this. When kids visit the Build-A-Bear Workshop at Sea, they use their small hands and big creativity to bring a new stuffed friend to life.
Dr. Seuss Bookville
Let’s use the imaginations just think what would happen if we took a normal library and put it through one of Dr. Seuss’s wacky contraptions set to maximum fun, of course. It would probably come out looking much like Dr. Seuss Bookville, which as you can imagine, is exclusively aboard Carnival! The room is all decked out in bright colors, featuring fun and whimsical furniture and even has some of your all-time favorite Dr. Seuss characters on the walls. But let’s not forget that this space is all about the books the shelves are filled to the brim for hours of fun reading.
Night Owls
Think back as a kid, was there anything better than times you got to stay up late? Even as an adult, nighttime is funtime, especially with all there is to do on your Carnival cruise. Carnival have the perfect thing for you AND for your kids, and it’s called “Night Owls”! For a nominal fee, kids 11 and under can fun it up with others their age until as late as 1 a.m.
Seuss-a-Palooza Story Time
Experience Dr. Seuss books like never before at Seuss-a-palooza Story Time. Watch as your favorite stories come to life in a setting that’s as one-of-a-kind as the Dr. Seuss classics themselves. But don’t just take this one sitting down as an audience member at Seuss-a-palooza Story Time you’ll find chances to interact as the story unfolds and perhaps even become a part of the story, yourself! Also, be sure to keep an eye open for unexpected, delightfully costumed guests who may very well be stopping by to make a special appearance.
Seuss-a-Palooza Parade
Stand up and cheer for the Seuss-a-palooza Parade, now streaming down the deck of select Carnival ships. Join characters you love and a flock of your fellow fun followers as you become part of the spirited procession of the biggest (and smallest) fans on this side of shore. This parade spreads the fun, so go spread the news and to think that you’ll do it on your Carnival cruise!
Seuss at Sea
From the whimsical and always wonderful world of Dr. Seuss comes Cats in Hats, Fish Red and Blue, and both kinds of Things 1 and 2. And they’re all coming to a Carnival cruise near you as the world of Dr. Seuss leaps off the page and onto Seuss at Sea.
Zumbini
Cruises are great for relaxing unless you’re a kid! Since kids have virtually unlimited energy and you know they definitely bring it with them on vacation your Carnival cruise will get your kids moving and developing with Zumbini, created by Zumba & BabyFirst. On every sailing, kids 2–5 years old will enjoy a free 30-minute Zumbini class that brings together the same musical fun that families love on land.
Club O2
Hang out doing stuff like watching movies, listening to music from this decade, playing sports and video games, joining karaoke jam sessions maybe even attending Carnival’s version of prom, all with other high schoolers ages 15 to 17.
Circle C
It’s the onboard spot where teens ages 12 to 14 go to hang out, meet new friends, and enjoy some pretty awesome activities. Like what? Think dance parties, games, outdoor movies and more, some in the exclusive Circle “C” lounge and others around the ship.
Camp Ocean
The little ones can enjoy the best parts of summer camp, year-round aboard their Carnival cruise. At Camp Ocean kids will have a blast in supervised, age-based groups and give each a cool marine-life label: Penguins (2 to 5 years), Stingrays (6 to 8 years) and Sharks (9 to 11 years).
Family Feud Live
Family Feud set, right down to the iconic Face-Off podium, plus all the excitement of Fast Money. Since we know how much entertainment the host can bring to the game, Family Feud Live is emceed by none other than your cruise director. So if you’re game, sign up your team of five for an audition.

Wellness
Wellness
True or false: cruises are a time for relaxation. An answer: whether you’re all action all the time, or chill to the core, everybody needs a chance to take it easy! And nobody will find an easier spot than Cloud 9 Spa aboard Mardi Gras.
Acupuncture
Lots of people, clearly acupuncture is performed all around the world, and has been used for all manner of ailments for thousands of years. Whether you’re looking to pinpoint a specific health concern or just searching for a different way to relax, our onboard, licensed acupuncturist’s table is a great place to do it.
Beauty
Treat yourself to cosmetics, fragrances and skincare items up to 25% off retail prices. Located just steps from the heart of the ship, The Fun Shops have everything you need to pamper yourself, perfect your signature look or try out a new makeup trend with authentic top-name beauty products.
Cloud 9 Spa : Thalassotherapy Pool
On a Carnival cruise, the vast and beautiful sea is all around you. You can do all the looking you want from the ship, but sorry — no touching allowed. (We’re sure you’ll understand.) That’s what the thalassotherapy pool at the onboard Cloud 9 Spa is for! Get your sea-water fix and soak completely in it, easily absorbing all the relaxing, rejuvenating benefits of the trace elements and vitamins you’ll find in nature.
Cloud 9 Spa : Thermal Suite
While bending the elements to your will, finding that perfect temperature for relaxation is awesome, even better is not needing to. Carnival's Cloud 9 Spa thermal suites are dedicated relaxation zones with a variety of available environments, each carefully developed by our master climate artists.
Facial Treatments
Your face is the first thing the world sees, and while a nice smile can make a world of difference, one of the best ways to put a smile on your face is with a nice, refreshing facial. Of course, there’s more to it than just feeling great… post-facial, your rejuvenated skin will also be looking its best, so there’s definitely substance behind the good looks you’ll be catching glimpses of in all the mirrors you pass.
Fitness Center
your ship has a gym. In other words, there’s no excuse for leaving your fitness routine back on land. That’s great news, however, for your body, which will definitely benefit from all the extra energy that vacationing pumps directly into you. And let’s not forget the extra time you’ll have, since you won’t be waking up and spending most of the day at the office or anything like that.
Fitness Classes
You can have all the will in the world, a great attitude that keeps you working hard at the gym, but still not see the results you’re hoping for. If that’s the case - or you’re just looking to shake things up with a little extra fun or challenge in your workout - check out Carnival’s selection of onboard fitness classes.
Hair & Beauty Salon
A trip to the salon is an opportunity to relax, to chat with others, to focus on yourself. It’s about more than just getting your hair or nails done, but it’s definitely about getting your hair or nails done! Even though you’re on vacation, you won’t have to settle for anything less than the salon style you’re used to back on land.
Massage
Cruising always feels good, but it doesn’t usually, right there. At the onboard spa, where they do these amazing massages by hand. But they don’t just stop there they’ve got tools to enhance the benefits too. Select from different hands-on experiences featuring seaweed for detox, herbal poultice for energy, bamboo for deep tissue penetration and hot stones for perfection. You know you’re all about feeling good, and so are these massages.
Medi-Spa
Carnival cruise contains a Medi-spa. Certainly not saying that you need them, but if you’ve been thinking about Botox or Dysport treatments, this spa is a good place to do them. Get them on vacation and they’ll always be administered by the onboard Medi-spa physician, a licensed medical doctor.
Men's Services
Hey man, been to the spa lately? Well, why let the ladies have all the fun? You can actually enjoy a lot of the same stuff they do, plus manly services like razor-close barbershop-style shaves - pair one with a facial to really get a good thing going up top. Speaking of the barber, a cruise is a great time to rock a whole new hairstyle, a quick grey-hair darkening, or even just a fresh trim.
Sky Fitness
Grab some gloves and work the bag, grab a seat and work the bike, or work your way around the vita course for a little of everything. Speaking of variety, why not switch off between SkyFitness and the standard indoor gym, to work a little change of pace into your daily workout?
Zspa
There’s a lot to being a teen - they need to kick back, chill and sometimes even indulge just as much as adults… if not more! Carnival cruises understand them, which is why they have tailored the onboard ZSPA treatments to their unique needs. ZSPA keeps teens looking their best from head to toe, with everything from trendy hairstyles to pedicures.
Acupuncture
Lots of people, clearly acupuncture is performed all around the world, and has been used for all manner of ailments for thousands of years. Whether you’re looking to pinpoint a specific health concern or just searching for a different way to relax, our onboard, licensed acupuncturist’s table is a great place to do it.
Beauty
Treat yourself to cosmetics, fragrances and skincare items up to 25% off retail prices. Located just steps from the heart of the ship, The Fun Shops have everything you need to pamper yourself, perfect your signature look or try out a new makeup trend with authentic top-name beauty products.
Cloud 9 Spa : Thalassotherapy Pool
On a Carnival cruise, the vast and beautiful sea is all around you. You can do all the looking you want from the ship, but sorry — no touching allowed. (We’re sure you’ll understand.) That’s what the thalassotherapy pool at the onboard Cloud 9 Spa is for! Get your sea-water fix and soak completely in it, easily absorbing all the relaxing, rejuvenating benefits of the trace elements and vitamins you’ll find in nature.
Cloud 9 Spa : Thermal Suite
While bending the elements to your will, finding that perfect temperature for relaxation is awesome, even better is not needing to. Carnival's Cloud 9 Spa thermal suites are dedicated relaxation zones with a variety of available environments, each carefully developed by our master climate artists.
Facial Treatments
Your face is the first thing the world sees, and while a nice smile can make a world of difference, one of the best ways to put a smile on your face is with a nice, refreshing facial. Of course, there’s more to it than just feeling great… post-facial, your rejuvenated skin will also be looking its best, so there’s definitely substance behind the good looks you’ll be catching glimpses of in all the mirrors you pass.
Fitness Center
your ship has a gym. In other words, there’s no excuse for leaving your fitness routine back on land. That’s great news, however, for your body, which will definitely benefit from all the extra energy that vacationing pumps directly into you. And let’s not forget the extra time you’ll have, since you won’t be waking up and spending most of the day at the office or anything like that.
Fitness Classes
You can have all the will in the world, a great attitude that keeps you working hard at the gym, but still not see the results you’re hoping for. If that’s the case - or you’re just looking to shake things up with a little extra fun or challenge in your workout - check out Carnival’s selection of onboard fitness classes.
Hair & Beauty Salon
A trip to the salon is an opportunity to relax, to chat with others, to focus on yourself. It’s about more than just getting your hair or nails done, but it’s definitely about getting your hair or nails done! Even though you’re on vacation, you won’t have to settle for anything less than the salon style you’re used to back on land.
