MSC Grandiosa
“MSC's most decorated ship — home to Cirque du Soleil at Sea, now sailing year-round from Florida.”
MSC Grandiosa is the first of the Meraviglia Plus class and one of MSC's most awarded ships, twice named World's Best Cruise Ship at the World Travel Awards. Her signature space is the Galleria Grandiosa, a two-deck indoor promenade topped by an LED dome that shifts from starry sky to marine reef throughout the day. She's also the exclusive home of Cirque du Soleil at Sea, performed in the purpose-built, 360-degree rotating Carousel Lounge. After years sailing the Mediterranean and Brazil, Grandiosa relocated to Port Canaveral in December 2025, now offering year-round eastern and western Caribbean itineraries that can be combined into 14-night voyages. With 6,300+ guests and the MSC Yacht Club, she blends European polish with Florida convenience.
The Galleria Grandiosa promenade and its purpose-built Carousel Lounge, the exclusive venue for Cirque du Soleil at Sea — a 360-degree rotating stage with aerial rigging found on no other cruise ship in the world.
