Celebrity has announced a new series of cruises for the 2015 to 2016 season that will allow passengers to witness some of the world’s most iconic events.
Called the Signature Event Sailings, the cruises will commemorate occasions such as the 100th anniversary of Anzac Day in Turkey and the Cannes Film Festival, taking tourists to the events themselves as well as treating them to themed on-board activities.
Other highlights of the season include a visit to the Redentore Festival, held in Venice since 1577, which will constitute part of a 14-night tour of Turkey and the Black Sea. Passengers will be able to watch fireworks from St Marks’ Basin and attend a poolside event inspired by a Venetian masked ball.
Those wishing to travel further afield can also enjoy the sights and sounds of Rio de Janeiro’s world-famous carnival – the highlight of a 14-night South America cruise from Buenos Aires. This includes access to the city’s Sambadrome to check out the Samba Parade from grandstand or VIP seating.
