Carnival Festivale™ – Where Every Moment Becomes a Memory
The name Carnival Festivale™ may pay tribute to one of our earliest ships — but this is a completely reimagined experience. This modern vessel is designed to bring people together, with a special focus on family harmony and unforgettable moments for all generations.
So, what can you expect on board? Plenty of highlights across six unique zones — including two brand-new areas inspired by music, offering immersive experiences filled with vibrant lights and powerful sound. Studio 724, our multi-deck multimedia venue, delivers a spectacular fusion of sound and visual magic. The Mix adds a producer’s flair to every cocktail session, while The Festival brings open-air vibes and tasty variety with Pizza Palooza and the Rhythm & Rolls Deli.
Families will love Sunsation Point, featuring the all-new Carnival WaterWorks Ultra, thrilling rafting attractions like SunSoaker and Turning Tides, plus dry play areas for even more fun.
Of course, guest favorites are back too: enjoy the beloved Alchemy Bar™, the vibrant Piano Bar 88™, the show-stopping Limelight Lounge, and tasty classics like Big Chicken™ and Swirls.
And that’s just the beginning — even more surprises are on the way!

Passengers under 18 Carnival Festivale
Carnival Festivale offers children and teenagers plenty of fun and variety. Our age-appropriate programs offer exciting, creative and sporting activities where young guests can let off steam, make new friends and enjoy their time on board to the fullest. There are specially supervised areas for each age group where children can play safely and have fun while their parents relax and enjoy the cruise.
Camp Ocean
The cruise becomes a real adventure for children: At the supervised Camp Ocean, they can discover the world of the sea through play – in small, age-appropriate groups. Whether it's crafts, dancing, watching films or playing together – the varied activities provide entertainment and new friendships. During mealtimes, children dine together with specially designed child-friendly menus. In the evenings, the Night Owls program (subject to a fee) provides further highlights, while parents can relax and enjoy the evening.
Age: 2–11 years
Club O2
While parents relax, Club O2® offers a holiday paradise of its own – especially for teenagers. Here you can hang out with your peers, watch films, listen to music, play sports or let off steam in video and karaoke sessions. Even a prom night in your own style can be part of the program. All in a relaxed atmosphere and, of course, without parents – just as a holiday should be.
Age: 15–17 years
Night Owls ($)
As a child, there was hardly anything more exciting than staying up late – and even as an adult, the night is fun on a Carnival cruise. With Night Owls™, children up to 11 years of age can play, dance and participate in activities under supervision until 1 a.m. for a small fee, while you enjoy a carefree evening.
ZSPA ($)
Teenagers also need their own space – to relax, recharge and treat themselves. At ZSPA, we offer treatments tailored specifically to teenagers, from trendy hairstyles and pedicures to fitness and relaxation options. This way, teens can feel completely at ease, whether it's their first spa visit, or they're already experienced.
