Pride Party at Sea

Each year, the Pride Party at Sea kicks off in June. The party takes place in tandem across the entire Celebrity Fleet with each ship handing off the party baton. 

​

A variety of multi-generational LGBTQ-focused programming will take place throughout the month of June. Together, Officers, staff, and guests around the world will participate in Celebrity's signature Pride programming. 

LGBTQ Onboard Events

Celebrity's popular LGBTQ Welcome Parties are open to all guests fleetwide and take place the first night of almost every cruise. This is a great ice breaker and a chance to meet new friends to spend the cruise with. 

​

In addition to the welcome party, you'll find other LGBTQ-focused social events, like the Friends of Dorothy cocktail hour. These events are some of our favorite ways to meet new life-long friends.

Same-Sex Weddings

In 2018, Celebrity was the first cruise line to host a legal same-sex marriage at sea.

 

If you're looking to have a wedding at sea, you'll find no better wedding at sea. Rainbow Getaways and Celebrity take care of all the details to make sure your big day goes off flawlessly. ​
