Cruise giant Royal Caribbean presents a first look at a lineup of entertainment and culinary experiences awaiting passengers aboard the Star of the Seas—the new flagship set to debut from Orlando (Port Canaveral), Florida, in August 2025.
The ship, considered the next generation of sea vacations, promises experiences for all ages—from exhilarating entertainment to a multitude of dining options.
Highlights include a maritime version of the musical "Back to the Future", stunning acrobatic and water art shows, an ice theater, and live music from the largest band ever at sea.
Shows for the Whole Family
In the main Royal Theater, an original show titled "Create" will be staged, following the emotional journey of KRE-8, a creativity-loving robot, combining music, dance, and visual art. At the AquaTheater, enjoy the show "Pirates & Mermaids"—a humorous and action-packed battle between pirates and mermaids.
New Culinary Experiences
In addition to over 40 restaurants and bars on the ship, three new food stations will be unveiled at the AquaDome Market. These include a smoked meats stand, Southeast Asian cuisine (Pad Thai, Penang curry), and South American flavors with empanadas and arepas. The Lincoln Park Supper Club will offer a 1930s Chicago-inspired dining experience, complete with live jazz and crafted cocktails.
Endless Nightlife
After sunset, the party continues: adults-only stand-up comedy shows, Royal Casino, nightly karaoke, and 20 bars and social spots including Dueling Pianos, Rye & Bean cocktail café-bar, and the Bubbles bar for a toast under the stars.
The ship, represented in Israel by Sanorama, will offer 7-night cruises to the Eastern and Western Caribbean, including a stop at Perfect Day at CocoCay—the company's private island in the Bahamas.
Starting December 2025, a stop will be added at Royal Beach Club Paradise Island—a new beach club offering a mix of family-friendly, relaxing, and festive atmospheres.
