50 Years of Carnival - Carnival Sailabration® Cruises
Carnival's next milestone birthday is coming up and we can't wait!
On March 11, 2022, we will turn 50 years and every single year represents a ton of fun we've had with you and our crew members during that time! For our birthday, we would like to be able to celebrate this special occasion with you.
To celebrate our 50th anniversary, we are planning a series of special themed cruises that will operate under the Carnival Sailabration® Cruises name. In addition to new activities, there will be throwback events - your favorites from the good old days. We'll also host a Fun Ship Meetup for the first time, where our cruise ships will join their sister ships for a big celebration at sea. Each ship will host a party on the Lido Deck. The ultimate atmosphere with classics you love to sing along and dance to will be provided by our Playlist Production team along with the ship's band and a DJ .
Since we couldn't have made it this far without you, we would be very happy to welcome you on board. In honor of all the voyages and the beautiful shared experiences since 1972, we invite you to celebrate with us at sea!
