Carnival Cruise Line Debuts New Bow Crest

Carnival Cruise Line is debuting a new look across its fleet.

This week, Carnival Legend returned to service after a 16-day dry dock in Freeport, debuting the cruise line’s new “From Sea to Shining Sea” bow crest ahead of Memorial Day weekend.

Inspired by “America the Beautiful,” the new design will roll out across Carnival’s U.S. ships during dry docks and new builds, except for Carnival Jubilee and Carnival Tropicale, coming in 2028, which display the Texas star on their bows.

Carnival Magic will debut the new crest next, returning to PortMiami from dry dock on May 26.

The crest’s debut comes as Carnival prepares to celebrate America250, the nation’s 250th anniversary. From June 4 to July 4, guests across the fleet will enjoy patriotic events, including trivia, crafts and ship meet-ups timed for July 4 fireworks on both coasts.

“With the debut of this new crest, we’re reinforcing what guests have long known: Carnival is proud to be America’s Cruise Line,” says Christine Duffy, president of Carnival Cruise Line. “We sail coast to coast and connect with millions of guests every year, and this crest reflects the reach of our brand across the U.S.—from the communities we visit to the memories we help create at sea."
