Celebrity Cruises has unveiled the entertainment lineup for their upcoming vessel, Celebrity Ascent, the 4th ship in the Edge class. The onboard entertainment will include three new theatre shows: "Awaken," a performance centered around dreams; "Residency," a production inspired by iconic Las Vegas residencies featuring artists like Elvis, Lady Gaga, and Bruno Mars; and "Bridges," a show exploring human connections against the backdrop of some of the world's most famous bridges.

During "Ascent After Dark: Shine the Night," passengers are encouraged to wear metallic clothing as they enjoy a nightlife experience on the ship's Resort Deck, where a prism light show and DJ set will take center stage.

In the innovative venue known as Eden, acrobats, singers, and dancers will put on three interactive shows that include games and music. In The Club, passengers can listen to live jazz music or immerse themselves in a performance with an old Hollywood theme titled "Smoke & Ivories."

Scheduled to enter service in December, the ship will also offer various gaming and interactive activities, such as the 80s-inspired competition "Game On: Augmented Multiplayer Experience," a singalong party called "Guilty Pleasures," and sketch art classes for those looking to explore their creative side.

Vice-president of entertainment Lisa Lehr said they had embraced the opportunity with Celebrity Ascent to take their entertainment offering to an even higher level for their guests, "handpicking the best creative minds to deliver a world leading programme that solidifies Celebrity’s reputation for onboard entertainment that stuns."

“We are so excited to show guests how our new entertainment offering can enrich their holiday in ways they’ve never experienced before.

“With elements our guests love plus some new surprises, Ascent offers something for everyone and adds to the memories they will have for a lifetime.”
