New Sun Princess Serves Up Celebrity Concepts with its Culinary Experiences

Posted on 06/27/2024
Princess Cruises’ newest ship isn’t just an engineering marvel. Sun Princess launched in February, 2024, another member of the “Love Boat” fleet – with a slew of celebrity partnerships enhancing guests’ onboard dining and drinking experiences, in addition to her advanced design, technology and craftsmanship.
 
Eye-Catching Advances
The 4,300-guest Sun Princess debuts new experience venues including The Dome, a ground-breaking geodesic, glass-enclosed structure at the top of the ship the cruise line says is inspired by the terraces of Santorini. At night, The Dome astonishes audiences with acrobatic Cirque Éloize performances while the Piazza dazzles with a retractable stage and immersive Champagne Waterfall.
 
The suspended Sphere Atrium takes the central Piazza hub of the ship into a new dimension. Here guests are enveloped by expansive ocean views and an open concept, inspired to deliver the desired lifestyle of relaxed indoor and outdoor living.


The Princess Arena is the most technologically advanced theater at sea, offering showstopping and original productions including performances in the round.
 
The first-ever family activity zone, Park19, offers multi-generational fun from the top deck. Within decks 19, 20 and 21, guests can experience everything from the Sea Breeze, a glider ride that offers panoramic views of the ocean and breathtaking ports of call to the Coastal Climb, an engaging climbing structure where guests can take in the gorgeous views.
