Exciting news for Eurovision fans: Royal Caribbean is launching two unique cruises dedicated to celebrating the iconic European song competition.
The first cruise, departing on May 11, 2025, aboard the newly renovated Allure of the Seas, offers fans a shared viewing experience of the Eurovision final. This seven-night voyage departs from Barcelona and makes stops in French and Italian ports, featuring concept parties, karaoke nights with Eurovision hits, surprise live performances, and gala dinners inspired by participating countries.
“Royal Caribbean is sponsoring the Eurovision competition for the second consecutive year,” explains Udi Schnabel, CEO of Sunorama, Royal Caribbean’s official representative in Israel. “This year, we’re offering special experiences with two unique European cruises designed for fans and enthusiasts of all ages.”
The second cruise, aboard Independence of the Seas—the world’s second-largest ship in the Freedom series—sets sail from Southampton, England, on June 18, 2025, for a three-night journey to Bruges, Belgium. This cruise centers on “Eurovision Memories,” celebrating iconic moments from the competition’s history.
Both ships provide a rich array of attractions, from thrilling water slides and climbing walls to sports courts and pools, along with gourmet restaurants and state-of-the-art entertainment facilities. Allure of the Seas boasts the tallest water slide at sea (10 stories) and a nine-story zipline, while Independence of the Seas features the world’s first floating wave park.
Prices for these cruises start at $1,077 per person for an interior double cabin on the longer Eurovision cruise, and $533 for the shorter cruise.
