The Carnival Celebration is the current flagship of Carnival Cruise Line. She is Carnival's second vessel of the fleet's Excel class, a subclass of Carnival Corporation & plc's Excellence class. At 183,521 GT, she is the largest ship in Carnival's fleet. Unlike her sister ship, Mardi Gras, as well as the original Celebration, this ship is named Carnival Celebration using the Carnival prefix. Her name was announced on 21 August 2020. Construction started on 13 January 2021 and was completed on 2 November 2022.

We had a bit of a run in with the folks from the Celebration and it wasn't real pleasant.

One of the things that Niccy really wanted to do on this trip was to ride the Monte Cable Cars up the hill and take the Wicker Toboggan Sleds back down. Super touristy but she really wanted to do it so OK, I'll go along. We went on a ship tour that took us up to Monte on the cable cars. Once there, we went to queue up for the toboggan ride back down. Well because the Celebration got into town before us their folks (it seemed like all 6500 of them) on their tour were already in the queue. Our tour guide told us the wait was going to be close to 3 hours and Niccy wasn't having it. We went to catch the cable car back down the hill and found out we only had one way tickets and had to buy another ticket to get back to town! Now she's madder than a wet hen!
