Introducing iTake, the video project for teens
For up-and-coming "directors," we have the coolest video project afloat. First, young visionaries brainstorm a storyboard for the short videos to be created. Then, armed with GoPro Hero 3 high definition, wide-angle video cameras (used to film extreme sports and other cool events), they'll head out to get the shots they planned—even underwater! After the filming, they'll learn how to edit their videos in our cyber chic Celebrity iLoungeSM. Cool prizes will be awarded in a variety of film categories at the XClub Film Festival & Award Ceremony. Complimentary program takes about 4 hours to complete. Available on all ships with a Celebrity iLounge: Celebrity Eclipse®, Celebrity Summit®, Celebrity Silhouette®, Celebrity Reflection®, Celebrity Infinity®, Celebrity Solstice®, Celebrity Millennium® and Celebrity Constellation®.

Surround yourself with the best entertainment at sea

We're shaking up your idea of what entertainment is all about. It begins on the main stage with groundbreaking productions that blend dance, comedy, musical theater and concert-style performances—but it doesn't end there. You'll find unexpected and award-winning experiences at every turn, from live music performances that perfectly complement our ships' stunning spaces to unpredictable parties sure to excite all your senses.

Production shows
Our main stage productions will leave you talking long after the final bow and match the mood of the hour.

Of course, there’s so much more.

Beyond the theater
The stage is just the beginning (there's just so much to experience—we couldn't keep it all in the theater).
