Embarking on her inaugural sail from Galveston, Carnival Jubilee is set to dazzle guests with a Texas-sized celebration, incorporating Lone Star Tailgate - a dynamic deck party that captures the spirit of Texas. The 3-hour tailgate, reminiscent of a football game, unfolds with the vibrancy of a country fairground and rodeo, offering games and giveaways for guests of all ages.

Proudly displaying a Texas star on her hull, CCL's Carnival Jubilee pays homage to the Lone Star State in various ways. Texas artists set the musical backdrop across the fleet's newest ship, with the Backyard Band at Guy’s Pig & Anchor Smokehouse and Brewhouse blending Texas tunes with lively party band music.

Introducing a new live show, "Dear Future Husband," Carnival Jubilee immerses guests in an interactive pop musical. The storyline follows a bride and groom on a wedding adventure aboard the cruise ship, featuring 4 acts of popular hits like "Marry You" by Bruno Mars and "Man! I Feel like a Woman!" by Shania Twain. Following the performance, guests partake in a lively reception, dancing to more pop hits and engaging with the cast.

Complementing the new show, Carnival Jubilee offers the R&B-infused Soulbound, a Playlist Production that weaves a sinister tale set to timeless R&B hits. The ship's entertainment repertoire extends to live game shows, including "Family Feud Live" and "Deal or No Deal," along with laughter-inducing stand-up comedy at the Punchliner Comedy Club.

Other highlights encompass the guest-favorite Piano Bar, where an intimate musical performance awaits around a grand piano nightly. From a skilled DJ on Lido to "Dive-In Movies" at the Seaside Theater, Carnival Jubilee promises a diverse range of entertainment options for guests to savor on board.

Sailing year-round from Galveston, the ship will embark on week-long Western Caribbean voyages, visiting destinations such as Cozumel, Costa Maya, Mexico, and Mahogany Bay, Isla Roatan. The arrival of Carnival Jubilee marks a Texas-flavored addition to Carnival's entertainment-rich fleet.
