Celebrity appearances on the brand new MSC cruise ship launch

Exciting times again for MSC Cruises with the launch of another new ship.
Not long now until the naming ceremony of the Bellissima which will be the second of the Meraviglia class ship.
It is more exciting this time because the naming ceremony is in Southampton which is very unusual. This will be held on the 2nd of March and will be hosted by the nation’s favourite presenter Holly Willoughby. The godmother Sophia Loren will perform the traditional ribbon cutting.
There will be a gala dinner and live music on this 2 night event followed by a performance the following day from Craig David.
The Bellissima will then depart on the maiden voyage on the 4th March.
So here is what you can expect from this beautiful ship:

Cirque De Soleil – 2 brand new shows called Varelia and Syma
Digital assistant in all cabins similar to Alexa
New magic themed kids programme with a weekly magic talent show
Tapas bar by Michelin chef Ramon Freixa
Large waterpark and 2 deck indoor amusement park
96 metre promenade with LED sky screen
Italian choclatier Venchi
Speciality French restaurant plus 11 other dining venues and 20 bars



MSC are becoming more and more popular and prove to be very good value for money.
Their ships are beautifully designed and offering more and more choice in entertainment and dining as they have ever done before.
They will also match your loyalty with other cruise lines so even if you have never cruised with them before you can still benefit from 5% discount on their cruise fares.
