Cruise News: Star Princess Shines on Her Maiden Mediterranean Voyage

The brand-new Meridian and Illuminate are the original theatrical shows taking centre stage in the grandest Princess Arena yet. The first one showcases a cinematic story of yearning and liberation, accompanied by original musical score and reimagined chart-topping hits, whilst the second is a spectacle of joy and mind-bending enchantment, set under the canopy of a nostalgic circus tent. The return of Sun-favourite Viva La Música also graces the world-class theatre with electrifying performances that perfectly capture Latin America’s vibrant beats.

Guests can continue enjoying a slate of brand-signature entertainment all day long beyond the arena, from the lively deck parties under the stars and the glass-enclosed Piazza that dazzles with ocean views to romantic candlelit performances at The Dome, the first geodesic dome at sea! 

Raising the standard of speakeasy experience on board Star Princess is the highly celebrated Spellbound by Magic Castle as seen on Sun Princess, with awe-inspiring magic, illusions, and hand-crafted theatrical cocktails that spark wonder, plus a fresh theme that pays tribute to the master magician Richard Valentina Pitchford – better known as “The Great Cardini.” 

Guests can indulge in a choice of culinary delights and drinks on board, including the expanded dining venues for O’Malley’s Irish Pub and Love by Britto, plus the exquisite Princess’ Love Line Premium Liquor Collection, offering a curated selection of wines, spirits and non-alcoholic beverages to match every mood and taste.

Star Princess also takes recreation and relaxation to the next level, with a new sports court and track at the SkyDeck, a well-equipped fitness centre, and an array of pampering treatments in the two-story Lotus Spa. Additionally, over 1,500 balcony staterooms are tailored to deliver ultimate comfort and luxury, featuring the lushest amenities and breath-taking views from the comfort of guests’ private sanctuaries. 

Embarking from Barcelona, Star Princess sets sail on her inaugural Mediterranean journeys, visiting some of the most captivating destinations in Italy and Spain. Following her debut season in Europe, she will continue with a transatlantic cruise, ready for her next adventure in the Caribbean and official naming ceremony. After a series of winter 2025 and spring 2026 cruises, she will transit through the Panama Canal to Seattle for her bucket-list summer cruises in Alaska.
