Carnival Festivale
Meet Carnival Festivale
We're announcing Carnival Festivale™, whose name pays tribute to one of our earliest, most pioneering ships, while connecting celebration to the universal language of music. But the new Carnival Festivale is made to change how you enjoy vacation, one beat at a time. If the name sounds like an invitation… you're right on key, and we'll be infusing your love of music into immersive experiences all over the ship, including two new music-themed zones, and Sunsation Point, the upper-deck zone that's made to be enjoyed all day and night.
Keep an ear open because there are definitely more announcements to come before Carnival Festivale sets sail from Port Canaveral in 2027. You can expect even more new experiences, plus fan favorites from our Excel-class ships. And if you want to be first in line, you'll get your chance to book this summer.

SUNSATION POINT:
FUN FOR ALL, DAY AND NIGHT
Carnival Festivale's top deck is home to Sunsation Point, a new zone that's all entertainment, and made with families in mind. Carnival WaterWorks Ultra is the most family-friendly waterpark at sea, and our biggest one yet. Everybody is sure to love the six waterslides and two splash pads, designed to deliver the H, the 2 and the O to all guests. But the water is just the beginning of the Sunsation story: a mini golf course, outdoor games, arcade and dining spots make this the perfect place for fun all day and night.


ONBOARD DINING:
MORE TO CRAVE & SAVOR
Carnival Festivale will be bringing back fan-favorite flavors like Guy's Burger Joint, Guy's Pig & Anchor Smokehouse | Brewhouse and Shaq's Big Chicken™ restaurant — and three cheers for that! — but that's not the end of the scrumptious story of this ship. Emeril, food legend and Carnival's Chief Culinary Officer, is cooking up a whole new dining concept, so go ahead and start daydreaming about the flavors in store for you on Carnival Festivale.
Can't Wait? Sail a sister ship.
