It's always a culinary event in our formal dining rooms. We've set the table for a first-class dining experience, including: fresh lobster on every cruise, an extensive wine list and attentive service.

For more intimate dining, many ships feature a reservations-only supper club with a Manhattan-chic setting and a menu that includes steakhouse favorites. Every meal is a celebration in our reservations-only Supper Club.

From the extravagant midnight buffets (on select ships), to the European-style cafes, sushi bars and 24-hour pizzeria, you'll discover a myriad of palate-pleasing favorites that even the most discriminating diner will enjoy.

We didn't forget about our youngest cruisers. Our children's menus feature plenty of kid-pleasing favorites including spaghetti and meatballs, hamburgers, hotdogs, pizza, assorted desserts and much more.

How Will You Spend Your Evenings?

It's up to you. Carnival ships boast some of the largest showrooms and best entertainment at sea. If you want excitement, you'll find it everywhere. There are lounges, bars and clubs to suit every taste.

During your cruise, no two shows are the same. So when the curtain goes up on one or our lavish Las Vegas-style extravaganzas, you'll want to be there. Later, stop in at the dance bar or meet new-found friends at the Sing-A-Long Piano Bar.

The overwhelming positive response from our guests was instrumental in encouraging us to add Las Vegas-style revues to the entertainment programs of all of our "Fun Ship" Super Liners.

Other options in entertainment include a wide variety of singers, comedians, bands and musicians performing either out on deck or in one of the many clubs and lounges.
