Celebrity Cruises has officially unveiled its much-anticipated 2027 cruise brochure, offering a comprehensive look at the brand’s worldwide sailings through May 2027. The 103-page digital and print guide reveals new ship deployments, exciting itineraries, and a $250 million investment in ship refurbishments, underlining the cruise line’s continued commitment to innovation, luxury, and destination diversity.
The release comes earlier than expected due to high demand from both travel agents and loyal cruisers. Available now for digital access via Celebrity Central, the brochure will also be available in print starting July 21 through Tradegate, enabling travel professionals to share detailed cruise options with clients seeking early vacation planning opportunities.
A Global Cruise Portfolio Spanning Seven Continents
The brochure includes in-depth information on nearly 300 destinations across more than 70 countries and all seven continents, positioning Celebrity Cruises as a premier choice for travelers seeking both cultural exploration and luxury at sea. From the Norwegian fjords and Caribbean islands to the South Pacific and Southeast Asia, the itineraries are designed to satisfy the preferences of seasoned cruisers and first-time passengers alike.
Eight Ships Set to Cruise Europe in Summer 2026
Celebrity Cruises’ 2026 European deployment will be its most ambitious yet, featuring eight ships operating across top regional hubs. A highlight will be the introduction of a brand-new ship, sailing from iconic Mediterranean ports such as Athens, Greece, and Barcelona, Spain. These itineraries will include overnight stays in Madeira, Portugal—giving passengers additional time to immerse themselves in the island’s lush landscapes and cultural heritage.
The Celebrity Apex will also return to Southampton, UK, for a third consecutive year, offering a series of popular cruises to Norway’s majestic fjords. This ongoing commitment to the UK market reflects the strong passenger demand for Northern European sailings with immersive experiences.
Major Fleet Refurbishment for the Solstice Series
In a significant upgrade initiative, Celebrity Cruises will invest $250 million into refurbishing its Solstice Series ships. The Celebrity Solstice will be the first to undergo enhancements in early 2026. The upgrades will align the vessel’s design and guest offerings with the latest Edge Series innovations, ensuring a seamless blend of contemporary luxury and classic cruising charm.
Once refurbished, Celebrity Solstice will embark on a series of epic voyages beginning in March 2026, including sailings to Alaska, Hawaii, Fiji, and Southeast Asia. The ship’s itinerary also features an extraordinary 110-night Grand Voyage from September to December 2026, visiting 55 ports across multiple continents—offering an unmatched opportunity for immersive global travel.
Caribbean, Asia, and South America in Focus for Winter 2026–2027
As the seasons change, Celebrity Cruises will shift its fleet to warmer destinations. The Celebrity Edge will return to the South Pacific and Australia, showcasing remote island getaways and vibrant coastal cities.
Meanwhile, Celebrity Beyond, Celebrity Apex, Celebrity Ascent, and the highly anticipated Celebrity Xcel will deliver a variety of 7- to 12-night Caribbean cruises, departing from U.S. homeports and providing seamless escapes to the region’s sun-soaked shores.
The Celebrity Equinox will resume its deployment in South America, offering culturally rich 8- to 14-day voyages from Buenos Aires, Argentina. These itineraries will take guests through iconic destinations including Patagonia, Uruguay, and Brazil.
In Asia, the Celebrity Millennium will continue its year-round operation, delivering in-depth regional exploration across destinations like Japan, Thailand, Vietnam, and Singapore. These itineraries are tailored for travelers seeking authentic cultural immersion paired with world-class onboard service.
Early Planning for a Luxury Cruise Future
The release of the 2027 brochure signals Celebrity Cruises’ long-term vision of shaping the future of luxury cruising. With ships sailing to destinations as varied as the Antarctic Peninsula, the Mediterranean, and the South China Sea, Celebrity Cruises offers something for every kind of traveler—from beach lovers to adventure seekers and cultural enthusiasts.
“Travelers are planning further ahead than ever before,” said Celebrity Cruises in an official statement. “This new brochure allows our guests and travel partners to plan transformative experiences now and look forward to unforgettable journeys with us over the next two years.”
