CARNIVAL TROPICALE SETS SAIL FROM GALVESTON IN 2028
Named in honor of the legendary 1982 MS Tropicale, Carnival Tropicale™ will join our award-winning Excel class in 2028. The original Tropicale introduced a new way of cruising where standout entertainment and onboard experiences mattered just as much as the destinations themselves.
Now that legacy sails forward with a touch of old‑Vegas flair and a tropical glow all its own. Think tropical charm with a showstopping wink — immersive spaces and next‑generation experiences that make you feel like part of the show. The lineup wouldn't be complete without Excel-class headliners like Sunsation Point, the upper-deck zone made for all-day, all-night fun, and Carnival WaterWorks Ultra, setting the stage for family-friendly thrills and memories worth telling long after the curtain falls.
This is just the opening act with more reveals on the way before Carnival Tropicale sets sail from Galveston in 2028. You can expect even more new experiences, plus fan favorites from our Excel-class ships. Your chance to book is coming soon. The spotlight is waiting.
