It is customary for our guests to extend gratuities to the shipboard staff in appreciation for their hard work and exceptional service. 100% of your gratuities are distributed to the crew who you interact with, such as your stateroom attendants, dining and culinary services staff, as well as others who work behind the scenes to enhance your overall cruise experience.

Entertainment

Here's your chance to dip a toe into onboard entertainment, activities, bars and more… so that when you cruise, you're ready to dive headfirst into the fun.

Alchemy Bar

You don’t need to be a mix-master to appreciate Alchemy – you just have to be up for trying something new. We’ve been stirring up some magic behind the scenes here at Carnival to produce a tasty series of all-new cocktails served at this unique vintage-themed cocktail “pharmacy.”

Let our cocktail specialists prescribe you something from the bar, with both nonalcoholic and alcoholic elixirs to remedy what ails you. Or, create your own custom concoction from a variety of unique ingredients.

RedFrog Pub
Get into an island state of mind before you even set foot on one. RedFrog Pub is our laid-back, no-worries, oh-so-lively Caribbean Island-inspired pub. Sample tropical fare, dominate at the foosball table, enjoy some sweet tunes and sip our tasty signature private-label craft beer; Thirsty Frog Summer Ale. So kick back and feel the island vibe come to life. You’ll be a local here before you know it.
RedFrog Rum Bar

Guests have told us we hit on something special with the cool Caribbean chill of the RedFrog Pub. We've taken the best parts and brought them poolside with the RedFrog Rum Bar, where the frog keeps the fun hopping day and night with all the island flava you know and love. Join the party at this poolside bar featuring a great selection of frog-approved Caribbean rum-based concoctions available by the glass or pitcher, plus plenty of Carnival’s signature private-label draft beer, ThirstyFrog Summer Ale.

Bluelguana Tequila Bar
BlueIguana Tequila Bar is the onboard spot to chill and enjoy a slushy tequila drink or an ice-cold Mexican cerveza. The menu offers up Mexican favorites, including several brands of tequila and a slew of Mexican brews. There’s a lineup of frozen concoctions, cocktails and margaritas served by the glass or by the pitcher, and even a special Mexican beer cocktail (yes, really). Where can you find this little slice of Mexican paradise? Next to the pool, of course. So stay cool and take in the bar’s vacation vibe while you kick back on your cruise – that’s what official bar mascot Blue the Iguana would tell you.
SKYBOX Sports Bar
Get hands-on with a game, a drink… and high-fives galore! SKYBOX Sports Bar gets you right into the front row of onboard sports action. Grab a drink or order some snacks — they’re great while kicking back and watching your favourite teams on one of the big screens, or just dropping by to check out real-time scores and headlines. And if you’re feeling lucky, feel free to grab a controller and get a little competitive with the latest sports game titles. They’re free to play, so find a friend or three and get set for some serious play-action.
Piano Bar
Play it again, Sam. Or Diana. Or whatever your name is. Because this is the bar where you call the shots – and the songs. Pull up a seat, order your favourite cocktail, and let your friendly piano player know which songs you'd like to hear. Then join the sing-along for a hand-clapping, foot-tapping, finger-snapping good time. Don't feel like flexing your vocal cords? No worries. Shy songbirds are welcome here, too. And since it's open from early evening to late at night, it's the perfect spot for a before-dinner drink or singing 'til the wee hours of the evening.
Casino Bar
Winning big in the casino is big fun, and your next stop is celebrating with a top-shelf drink. Located right off the casino floor, the casino bar serves up your favourite cocktails, beer and wine, making this the perfect spot to celebrate with family, friends… and maybe even total strangers.
Warehouse Arcade
If you love to play video games, you’re in luck. Our 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. After all, with the video arcade open 24 hours and an entire cruise ahead of you, you’ll have plenty of time to try.
Atrium
First impressions are important to us, that’s why the atrium, your first taste of your Carnival cruise, makes you go ‘wow.’ From the moment you step aboard, the atrium — the heart of the ship — simply screams “welcome aboard!” There’s hustle and bustle, there’s music and high ceilings featuring panoramic views of the whole scene from the upper decks. This 360-degree funspot is also the home of the Guest Services desk, the place you go if you have questions for one of our certified fun experts… try them out to see if they can make your experience just that little bit better.
Games
Kids never need an excuse to play and at Carnival, we believe play is important to ALL ages, so our cruise ship games are a huge part of the Carnival experience for all, young and old! From physical challenges to board games, trivia games to scavenger hunts to the very appropriate Battle of the Ages - the trivia game that actually puts kids against adults - Carnival puts the “all” in “fun for all.” You’ll also love our mini golf, bingo, basketball, and volleyball games, and our arcade games will keep the family entertained for hours.
Bingo
Bingo buzz fills the air. You’ve got three cards in front of you, and you’re ready to play. What will tonight’s big game be? Postage stamp? Big X? Big T? Get ready to play some crazy-exciting bingo. Cash prizes start at $100, and a jackpot game might add another zero to the pot. Other prizes include tour passes, gifts from onboard shops, spa services and more. So grab some bingo cards. That next B-6 could be the lucky call that lands you a whopping jackpot or even a free cruise. Check your onboard itinerary for the big Bingo happenings on your cruise.
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 our 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!
Dreams Studio
On the same ship with the waterslides and cocktails is actually a photographic oasis. Everybody looks their best, smiles their biggest smiles on holiday… and at Dreams Studio our professional photographers beautifully capture this side of individuals, couples, groups or families. We’ll lead you to the best photo spots on the ship, in our onboard photo studio… or even ashore in some picturesque destinations. You’ll end up with amazing prints or high-quality digital files, custom photo-books, collages and large prints. Tip: Elegant Night on your cruise makes the perfect time to capture your all-dressed-up look in refined black & white portraits!
Library

With wall-to-wall activities on offer, most people wouldn’t consider their cruise as a great time to read a book, but you’ll find the bibliophilic faithful stretched out on deck chairs, enjoying the sun, sea breeze… and a page-turner. Forgot to bring a book? E-reader battery just died? Carnival ships feature an onboard library stocked with the good stuff. For the silent types, it’s a great place to read, but if the roar of the ocean is more your soundtrack, the library is a great place to find a good read to devour, al fresco.

Cherry On Top
A cruise is the perfect time to treat yourself to something sweet, and Cherry On Top happens to be the perfect place. You'll find this well-stocked lolly-and-more-store not only great for enjoying some of your confectionery favourites, but the place to pick up food and apparel gifts for that special someone, even if — admit it — that someone happens to be you!
Roulette

Boosting your excitement levels and trying your luck at the spinning wheel go hand in hand at cruise casino roulette with Carnival Cruise Line.

While it may come from the French for "little wheel," on your Carnival cruise, roulette means big action! There are a whole bunch of ways to get into the game… and just as many ways to win. Take red or black, high or low, even or odd... or go for the long odds — and big payoffs — by playing the inside (you know, the numbered spaces). If you're lost, know that you're not alone... the casino staff on your cruise can set you on the right path to an unforgettable experience.

Let Carnival raise the adrenaline levels and lift the party spirit, with high stakes and entertainment values to match, in the wide range of Australia casino cruise deals offered online.

Dive-In Movies

Ready to see stars? Park yourself in front of the big screen — the really big screen — and settle in for a night at the cinema… under some real stars. From the comfort of your poolside lounge chair, or even the pool itself, you'll enjoy the most recent blockbuster movies at our cruise ship theatre.

And don't think a cruise cinema in the middle of the sea means going without the usual comforts. There's not only popcorn — who could forget that? — but blankets! So, lounge around, snuggle up and try to remember the last time you truly enjoyed a night at the movies. And the good news is there’s a heap of other cruise entertainment for the other days and nights you’re at sea. Stick with the cinema experience and be blown away with our Thrill Theatre or IMAX experience.

Check out our stage shows and playlist productions, and the amazing Airia aerial illusionist. If laughter and interaction is more your thing, a night at the Punchliner Comedy Club, singing karaoke, or showing off with our Lip Sync Battle are a lot of fun. And there’s plenty for the kids to do, if you just want to laze around in any of our outdoor pools.

Playlist Productions

When was the last time you got up and danced… at the theater? Playlist Productions takes tunes you know and puts them live on stage, transforming them into full blown musical productions featuring pro singers and dancers rocking the house.

The Punchliner Comedy Club
Cruise entertainment doesn’t come any better than laughing-so-hard-you-can-barely-breathe funny. To take our Punchliner Comedy Club talent way over the top, we've teamed up with renowned Aussie comedians who are certain to take you to the point of mirthful hysterics. Our comedy shows are so good, we basically run a comedy cruise. From physical tom-foolery, through sharp one-liners to blood-vessel-busting bardiness, the Punchliner Comedy Club is the home of hilarity. Our comedy shows are the perfect companion to our other entertainment activities such as our playlist productions, piano bar, karaoke and lip-sync-battle, stage shows, live music, bars, pub, and sports bar, and casino. Every night is a night out on a Carnival cruise.
Stage Shows

Our stage shows are designed to razzle and dazzle. Featuring talented singers, musicians and dancers performing crowd-thrilling numbers in extravagant costumes with awesome sets and scenery, it's like catching one of the best shows on land. All performances are created to ensure that every night feels like opening night. And best of all, since shows are included in your fare, it's like having top-dollar tickets to the hottest show in town, absolutely free.

Lip Sync Battle: Carnival
You don’t have to hit the right notes. But the right moves… you better bring ‘em. Bring ‘em to Lip Sync Battle™: Carnival, an on-stage adaptation of the hit Paramount Network series, aboard Carnival cruises. This series of competitions throughout your vacation is designed to see who’s got what it takes to truly channel their inner idols and make the crowd go wild. You’ve got what it takes, but we don’t expect you to do it alone. Fight your way to the finals, where we'll provide the props, music, lighting, choreographers and even backup dancers to elevate your performance. But the attitude — superstar, diva, rockstar — that is all you. So get up there and work it, twerk it, give it all you got. And if you’re crowned the Lip Sync Battle Champion, you’ll get to pose with the coveted LSB belt and take home an exclusive gift!
Karaoke

You can channel your inner rock star as you cross the channels and transcend musical boundaries with cruise karaoke onboard Carnival.

Rockers and rollers of all ages can hold the mic and audience captive in one. Regularly scheduled karaoke events on your cruise are open to all, so budding country music luminaries, pop stars and rock gurus in the making simply need to front up and put on a show.

The Carnival cruise karaoke song list is bound to hit the right note for cruise goers of all musical tastes. All the latest billboard chart toppers and a smattering of old-time favourites are tossed into the mix to ensure that music lovers of all genres, preferences and age groups can sing out loud to their heart’s content.

All you need is a zest for fun and a tune to strum the heartstrings. With regular karaoke events and, of course, all song lyrics included, you’ll be in fine voice no matter where you’re headed.

Live Music

Want to rock 'n' roll every night and every day? Well, you've come to the right ship. We reckon we’re the best cruise line for live music, with so many cruise shows, venues, and live bands to choose from. We really are a live music cruise that brings some of the best performers on land out to sea for an ambiance that can't be beat. From happy-go-lucky island rock at RedFrog Pub to sing-alongs at the piano bar, to a heap of karaoke, chances are you'll find a live performance on board that gets your hands clapping and toes tapping. And don’t forget to enjoy the nightclub, Playlist Productions, Lip Sync Battles and brilliant Stage Shows. And then there’s our other cruise entertainment including bars, Comedy Club, and our popular dive-in movies.

Nightclub
Get up and get down at the most happening club in the Pacific. The DJs at our cruise nightclub are spinning today's hottest hits and yesterday's golden oldies, guaranteed to get you out of your seat and tapping your feet. (Hey, that rhymed!) Whether you're doing the robot or the worm or just swaying to the music, you'll want to dance 'til dawn. Or at least 'til last call. Oh yeah... our themed parties are pretty fun too. Our cruise nightclub isn’t the only nighttime cruise entertainment. With bars including the Alchemy Bar, Redfrog Pub and Brewery, Casino Bar, and Skybox Sports Bar, there’s plenty of fund to be had. And you can Cruise the Vineyards and mix martinis if you’re a real connoisseur. If you’re after even more entertainment, check out the Punchliner Comedy Club or have a punt at our casino.
Deal or No Deal

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-favorite 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 kinds of people — land people and sea people. Unless they were born on a pirate ship, 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 Sailaway Party on your first Carnival cruise is where the transformation occurs. It’s actually pretty easy: get there and… you’re in the club and ready to celebrate! (Then, on your second Carnival cruise — and let’s be honest, you’ll be back — strap on your sea legs, find a cruise newbie and join them in a toast to the great times to come.)

80s Night
Your cruise features 80s Night, so when the sun goes down you know things are gonna get bad… bad meaning good! The fun starts with a Playlist Productions show and, since everybody just wants to have fun, features an evening of themed parties that will have you wondering if the ship’s, like, sailing back in time. Just in case we do hit 88 knots, wear your hair big and we’ll up this journey to the max with DJs spinning some righteous tunes from the heyday of music videos, one illin’ 80s dance contest, plus a class to totally teach you how to bust a move. Rad!
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. And when we say “everyone,” that means guests of all ages are welcome at this party! Make the most of your evening with games, giveaways, line dances — and more — well into the night.
Mad Hatter's High Tea
Have you got a sweet tooth? Then the Mad Hatter's Afternoon Tea Party is just for you! Pack a crazy hat and enjoy a selection of teas and coffees and a spread of decadent canapes, themed treats and cakes while the Queen of Hearts, the white rabbit and Alice herself make a special appearance. Visit Guest Services to book your spot once you’re onboard. A traditional afternoon tea is $10. A bubbly afternoon tea includes a glass of champagne and will cost $15. Available on both Carnival Spirit and Carnival Splendor for itineraries 5 days or longer.
Holidays Aboard
You don’t need a reason to celebrate… but if you want one, look no further than your calendar. Every Carnival cruise is a celebration — especially on holidays — but we 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 thing, there’s Halloween in October, where costumes at sea are just the beginning. 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. Finally, we close out the year — and begin the next one — with New Year’s Eve traditions like a huge party… and the party isn’t complete without an after-party. Ready to celebrate? Plan your cruise for the right dates and you’re in for even more festive fun.
Carnival WaterWorks

Wanna splish — and splash — the day away? Head on over to Carnival WaterWorks™, our onboard waterpark, for the ultimate fun. First up, there's Carnival’s Twister Waterslide™, hundreds of feet of spiraling awesomeness that starts you off high in the air and gets you down low with one of the fastest, wettest rides you'll find anywhere. Or you can take the epic plunge from our Green Thunder and Green Lightning slides.

The great news is our ultimate cruise waterpark is not the only kids fun onboard. Stay wet with any of our popular pools and dive-in movies. Daredevils will love our Bolt sea coaster. Or perhaps you’d prefer the slower pace with our mini golf course. And there’s plenty for kids of all ages to do indoors as well, including Camp Ocean and our fitness centre.

Pools

POOL DAY! Cruising the high seas combined with some of the best cruise ship pools at sea to float your cruise-going dreams at Carnival. 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, a cruise ship pool is so important to a great cruise that we designed our ships to have a few of them. At an aft pool you'll catch a breeze, plus a sea view featuring the ship's wake, while midship pools are adjacent to that oh so sweet 24/7 ice-cream spot! And no matter which you find yourself chilling in, the sunbeams are there for the taking! And our cruise ship pools are only part of the aqua park fun. Our Green Thunder and Green Lightning waterslides are fun for all ages, as are our dive-in movies and Waterworks water park. And don’t forget our other family outdoor activities such as .

Accessories

Whether you’re in the market for a special piece of jewellery, or just shopping around for designer sunglasses, accessories and artisan leather bags, duty-free shopping at our cruise accessory shops are a must. All of Carnival’s state-of-the-art fleet of cruise ships offer cruise accessory shops onboard for cruise goers.

While you’re there, keep an eye out for limited-time-only special events — the perfect deal on that watch gift set or resort fashions may only come along once per sailing. But while pop-up sales may come and go, the tax-free, duty-free savings — which you definitely won’t find on land — are available all cruise long!

Apparel

Whether your cruise wear clothing is swimwear or cocktail dresses designed to stand out, the cruise clothes shop on a Carnival ship is a must visit. A cruise clothes shop has never been so much fun or offered such a variety of styles, designer clothing, and cruise wear clothing options. You can shop until you drop at our cruise clothes shop, with the extensive selection of cruise wear clothing for men, women and children.

You can even window shop and grab a bargain when it presents itself. Especially as cruise shops are duty free. Get your cruise fashion as part of our big range of shopping onboard. With luxury retailers and a range of different cruise shops, you’ll definitely find what you’re looking for. Shop for watches, accessories, designer clothing, jewelry, and all the beauty products you’ll ever need. You can also grab a few drinks and make a day of it.

Liquor
Did you know that your bartender will be glad to list the ingredients of your favorite onboard cocktail? Give it a shake once you get home… but first, make sure your bar is ready for action. Stock up on spirits at the onboard Fun Shops™! Here, the savings start with up to 50% off prices on land, but they really add up when you subtract the taxes — every bottle at The Fun Shops, even the top-shelf stuff, is tax-free and duty-free. (The bottles are also bigger than most — we’re talking 33% bigger, 1 liter.) Raise a glass and drink deeply of great vacation memories… and vacation savings.
Watches

Time isn’t really a big deal on vacation, so it may seem surprising that one of the best times to save on watches is during your cruise. But it’s true! From the simple to the sporty, the intricate to the luxurious, our onboard Fun Shops™ have a selection to fit your style, your wrist… and even your budget. Grab a new dive watch for your shore excursion, or something sparkly for elegant night, and you’ll save 35% to 75% off retail prices. Whether it’s a timepiece to commemorate a great vacation, a thoughtful gift for someone back home, or just because the time is right — all purchases are tax-free and duty-free! — head to The Fun Shops for big-time savings.

Beauty

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder when you pay a visit to the cruise beauty shops onboard Carnival. With the offer of top-selling beauty brands, at up to 25 per cent of the recommended retail price, the beauty allure is simply irresistible at our cruise beauty shops.

Part of Carnival’s Fun Shops, these stores offer an extensive product selection from all the popular international beauty brands. If you’re in the market for a new lipstick, designer fragrance, skincare, cosmetics, hair and health products, our cruise beauty shops are your one-stop shop. Cruise holiday goers should also keep an eye out for Travel Exclusives, which offer extra-special prices on famous brands that you can only find on ship and in store at our cruise beauty shops.
