The world’s largest cruise line has named Grammy-winning singer and songwriter Meghan Trainor godmother of the new Utopia of the Seas.

On a three-night cruise from July 15-18, the “Timeless” singer will deliver a live performance on Utopia while at Royal Caribbean’s award-winning private island destination, Perfect Day at CocoCay. Trainor will also be part of the naming party during the cruise, which takes place just days before the new vacation’s official July 19 debut in Port Canaveral (Orlando), Florida.

TravelPulse Canada will be onboard for the naming cruise, bringing you timely reports on RCI’s newest ship, which will offer three- and four-night cruises from the Florida port, dubbed “the ultimate short getaway.”

 “It’s an incredible honour to join the Royal Caribbean family as godmother of Utopia of the Seas and set the tone for the parties to come,” said Meghan Trainor. “The best part is that we get to bring that weekend energy to the stage with my family and fans. What’s better than being on vacation with the people you love and dancing to your favourite music? Let’s make some beautiful memories and get this party started!”

Trainor’s exclusive show will be held in the open-air AquaTheater.

“Utopia of the Seas is where making the most of the weekend and every moment are more than a state a mind, they’re a reality any day of the week. This is the short getaway that’s all about celebrations, celebrating friends, family and the memories you make together,” said RCI president and CEO Michael Bayley.

“Meghan embodies that in every way, from who she is to how she shares her music with the world, making her the perfect godmother to match Utopia’s big weekend energy. We’re thrilled to welcome her to the family and host a party of epic proportions fit for the ultimate short getaway.”

The celebration will set the tone for 3-night weekend and 4-night weekday vacations on Utopia. RCI says the ship will offer more than 40 ways to dine, drink and party, including a lineup of parties only on Utopia, two casinos and Royal Railway – Utopia Station, a first-of-its-kind immersive train car dining experience.

Every vacation on Utopia  includes time to thrill and chill on Royal Caribbean’s Perfect Day at CocoCay in The Bahamas. The top-rated private island ups the ante with 14 waterslides, the largest freshwater pool in the Caribbean and The Bahamas, the newly opened adults-only oasis, Hideaway Beach, that features a private beach, pools and spots for drinks and bites, exclusive cabanas and a live DJ; and more.
