Get ready for: Festival at Sea The only way to cruise THE SHIP: We like mixing it up with different ships here at Festival at Sea. And this year we're pleased to take you on one of Carnival's newest vessels, the Carnival Valor. There's no need to go looking for fun aboard the Valor, fun will find you. In fact, with her three pool areas, 9 hole mini golf course, huge screen of the Carnival Seaside Theatre and the best fine dining afloat at her steakhouse, it's almost impossible to not have the time of your life aboard Carnival Valor. And, with FESTIVAL AT SEA's many entertainment options, the good times are just getting started when the sun goes down. THE PARTIES: When it comes to parties, FESTIVAL AT SEA knows how to throw down! We've been doing it since 1992, and it just gets bigger and better every year. Whether you're old school... new school... or somewhere in between, we've got a dance floor with your name on it. Our DJ's keep the boat rockin! And on our Cool White Linen Night, African Attire Evening, and our themed costume parties, everyone dresses the part and adds to the camaraderie. THE STARS: The list of entertainers who have performed on Festival at Sea is... if we can say so ourselves.... impressive! Legends like the Isley Brothers and the OJays... funk monsters like the Gap Band and Ohio Players... neo-soul artists such as Joe, Kem, and Bryan McKnight, have all graced our stages over the years. They say that laughter is good for the soul, and there's no shortage of laughs on FESTIVAL AT SEA when the list of comedians who have appeared include Sinbad, DL Hughley, Mark Curry and Bruce Bruce.
