MSC Cruises has officially announced that its signature Yacht Club experience is coming to MSC Magnifica. Starting from summer 2026, guests will be able to book this luxurious “ship within a ship” concept, offering a more exclusive and all-inclusive cruise experience onboard one of MSC’s most popular ships.
The big reveal comes as MSC Magnifica prepares for a major dry dock later this year, marking the ship’s most extensive refurbishment in a decade. Highlights of this exciting transformation include a completely redesigned MSC Aurea Spa, a new state-of-the-art Technogym® fitness centre, and, of course, the all-new MSC Yacht Club.
This is also the first time the MSC Yacht Club will be available on cruises from Warnemünde, Germany, offering Baltic and Scandinavian itineraries. It will also debut on the 2027 MSC World Cruise- a first for the brand’s luxury concept.
Set across five upper decks, the MSC Yacht Club onboard MSC Magnifica will feature:
63 All-New Luxury Suites: Ranging from ocean-view balconies to expansive Royal Suites with private whirlpools and 840 sq. ft. terraces, perfect for families or luxury-seekers.
Private Sundeck & Grill: Expect cabanas, a whirlpool, sun loungers, and an outdoor grill restaurant and bar in a serene, contemporary setting.
Top Sail Lounge: A light-filled forward-facing lounge with floor-to-ceiling windows, offering drinks, light bites, and panoramic views.
Dedicated Yacht Club Restaurant: A fine dining experience with 24/7 culinary staff, curated menus, and an expert sommelier for perfect wine pairings.
Also part of Magnifica’s transformation is a newly upgraded MSC Aurea Spa, now spanning over 2,900 sq. ft. with a salt room, steam rooms, panoramic sauna, and a relaxation lounge.
Additionally, the ship will boast a brand-new Technogym® fitness centre, complete with yoga and spin studios featuring stunning sea views.
Summer 2026 Baltic Cruises: Departing from Warnemünde, Germany, starting 16th May 2026 with port calls in Estonia, Sweden, Finland, Denmark, and Latvia.
Winter 2025/26 Mediterranean Cruises: 3- to 8-night sailings to iconic European ports including Barcelona, Rome (Civitavecchia), and Marseille.
MSC World Cruise 2027: For the first time, the Yacht Club will be available on MSC’s epic 121-night global sailing, visiting 45 destinations across 25 countries.
If you're looking to cruise in style, with butler service, private lounges, and curated dining, MSC Magnifica’s new Yacht Club might just be your perfect 2026 escape!
