Carnival announces a new cruise ship to dock in Galveston.

The Carnival Jubilee will join Carnival’s other ships sailing from Galveston – the Carnival Vista, Carnival Dream, and Carnival Breeze in 2023. Carnival began offering year-round cruising from Galveston in 2000. The cruise line’s presence has grown as the Port of Galveston grew.

The Carnival Jubilee is the third excel-class ship in Carnival’s fleet joining the Carnival Celebration and the Carnival Mardi Gras. The Carnival Jubilee will be fueled by clean-burning liquefied natural gas and features several fun surprises – such as the first rollercoaster at sea, six distinct onboard themed fun areas, and several new-to-Carnival surprises.
