Carnival Jubilee Debuts Unique Experiences for Kids and Families

CARNIVAL JUBILEE BRINGING IMAGINATIVE NEW FAMILY FUN AND ADVENTURE, FROM THE WORLD OF DR. SEUSS TO FARAWAY GALAXIES

Jubilee Debuts Unique Experiences for Kids and Families

Carnival Cruise Line’s new flagship, Carnival Jubilee, debuts unique experiences for kids and families. The ship will usher in a roster of new and reimagined experiences into the fleet. The new programming will inspire journeys through the world of Dr. Seuss as well as celebrate cultures across the globe and give a glimpse at venturing into outer space.

“Kids and multigenerational families sailing on Carnival Jubilee are set to enjoy a new level of fun with all new experiences tailored to every age group. We’re welcoming new characters, creating new spaces, and telling new stories so everyone in the family can make the most of their cruise vacation,” said Melissa Mahaffey, Carnival’s director of youth and family experience.

Expanding the Space Cruisers Program

Through a partnership with Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex, a high-tech space wall inside Camp Ocean will allow young cruisers to imagine they’re at the helm of their own spacecraft. This addition to Carnival’s Space Cruisers program has an LED screen designed like the dashboard of a space capsule. It will add stunning NASA space imagery to promote STEM and heighten hands-on learning experiences.

Inspiring Creativity with Immersive Experiences

Kids will find plenty of fun all over the new ship. In the Currents zone, which utilizes LED technology to create “portholes” that produce a virtual aquarium, kids (and kids at heart) can add their own whimsy. They can design a unique sea creature and watch it magically come to life on the wall and ceiling screens.

Creating More Opportunities to ‘See the World’

See The World, a highly-rated program for teens already providing enriching fun across the fleet, will expand on Carnival Jubilee. The Panagbenga Festival, developed collaboratively with several of Carnival’s onboard team members from the Philippines, will come to life. With a flower parade and cultural jewelry-making activity, teens can discover new, culturally rich experiences.

Keeping the Fun Going with ‘Night Owls Camp Out’

A new themed program for kids, Night Owls Camp Out, will keep the fun going into the evening hours. Outdoor camp-themed challenges like cornhole and horseshoes, as well as fort building, obstacle courses through the “forest,” and singing songs around a “campfire,” will be part of the Night Owls programming. It will also feature competitions, crafts, dance parties, and giveaways.

‘Fox in Socks’ to Join Seuss at Sea as New Breakfast, Parade and Story Time Debut Soon

The family-favorite Dr. Seuss Breakfast will become a birthday party led by Thing 1 and Thing 2 beginning Jan. 6, 2024. The new take on the breakfast will celebrate individuality and uniqueness in true Seussian style. It will feature brand new menu items, activities, music, and more. After launching on Carnival Jubilee, the breakfast will be added into Seuss at Sea programming across the fleet.

Then, beginning Feb 17, 2024, the popular Seuss-a-palooza Parade is welcoming a new character ‘Fox in Socks’ to join in the fun. During the Parade, inside the ship’s two-deck Currents zone, a series of colorful and whimsical scenes will come to life on the LED screens along the walls and ceiling of the area. The imagery will create an immersive underwater world inspired by Dr. Seuss.

Furthering the fun, Seuss-a-palooza Story Time will now feature the very popular Dr. Seuss book Green Eggs & Ham, hosted by the ship’s Cruise Director. This interactive and immersive story time event, where scenes from the book come to life, will engage the whole family like never before.

Extra Enhancements Coming Soon to the Ultimate Playground and Camp Ocean

Planet Play at Sea, a space-themed toddler playground, will be added to the ship as well after its initial launch. This new toddler area of the ship’s Ultimate Playground zone will resemble the fully-immersive, multiple story play experience located at Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex. It will provide a special play place that inspires imagination and space exploration for the youngest cruisers.

Soon in the new year, the ship will also utilize enhanced facial recognition technology in the youth area for junior cruisers. Introduced on sister ship Mardi Gras, facial recognition technology is an important part of the check-in and check-out process at Camp Ocean on Carnival’s Excel-class ships. The technology uses facial recognition to authenticate a match between the child and adults authorized on behalf of the family. A match is required for any child to be let in or out of the area.

The new programming developed for Carnival Jubilee complements a wide variety of experiences already popular on other Carnival ships. There’s well-known favorites like Build-A-Bear Workshop and Zumbini family experiences. There’s also the thrilling all-electric roller coaster BOLT: The Ultimate SeaCoaster, as well as a miniature golf course, a suspended ropes course, an expansive sports court, plus the WaterWorks aquapark with three exciting waterslides.
