Royal Caribbean Star Of The Seas Dazzles With Shows & Dining

Royal Caribbean is redefining what it means to vacation with Star of the Seas, the bold new addition to its Icon Class fleet, launching August 2025 from Port Canaveral, Florida. Whether you’re a thrill-seeker, foodie, musical theatre fan, or just want to unwind in style, this floating city at sea brings next-level entertainment and over 40 dining and drinking destinations under one dazzling sky.

Theatre, Thrills and Time Travel

Star of the Seas brings the heat with five signature shows across land, sea, air and ice. The headline act? A Broadway favourite with a Royal Caribbean twist: “Back to the Future: The Musical.” Get ready for a rocking ride through time as Marty McFly, Doc Brown and the iconic DeLorean land on the open ocean, featuring electric choreography, special effects, and the largest orchestra at sea.

Meanwhile, at the AquaTheater, catch “Torque,” a high-octane aqua show fusing acrobatics, diving, slacklining and cutting-edge visuals. Then head to Absolute Zero, the cruise line’s premier ice arena, for “SOL,” a gravity-defying ice performance tracking the mythical journey of the sun through awe-inspiring visuals and a record-setting cast.

Family Fun, All Day Long

From sunrise to starlight, Star of the Seas offers something for every member of the family. At the Royal Theater, kids and adults alike will be enchanted by “Create,” an original production that follows KRE-8, a curious robot discovering art, music, and meaning through creativity. Then dive into a splash of comedy and heart with “Pirates & Mermaids,” an AquaTheater show blending synchronized swimming, dance, and whimsical storytelling to remind us what life’s real treasure is.

Flavours That Travel the World

With over 40 dining and drinking venues, every meal on Star of the Seas is a culinary adventure. At the AquaDome Market — a vibrant food hall exclusive to Icon Class ships — taste your way through five stands, including three exciting new additions:

• Smoked meats like pulled pork and brisket

• Southeast Asian staples like pad thai and beef panang

• South American favourites like arepas and empanadas

Other delicious pit stops include Surfside Eatery for the little ones, Basecamp in Thrill Island for snacks between slides, and Windjammer — Royal Caribbean’s largest buffet — featuring over 12 cuisines daily.

Elegant Evenings at Lincoln Park Supper Club

Making its debut on Star, the Lincoln Park Supper Club in the Central Park neighborhood is an elegant homage to 1930s Chicago. Think moody jazz, art deco interiors, and multi-course tasting menus inspired by icons like Chez Paree and The Pump Room. It’s an all-sensory evening complete with signature cocktails and sultry live music — ideal for date night or a celebratory toast.

Looking for a pre-show feast? Choose from sizzling hibachi at Izumi Hibachi & Sushi, indulgent steaks at Chops Grille, or a bespoke gathering at the Celebration Table, perfect for birthdays, anniversaries or just sharing good food with great company.

 

Nightlife Under the Stars

When the sun goes down, the energy on Star turns up. Enjoy laugh-out-loud comedy at The Attic, belt out your favourite hits at late-night karaoke, or try your luck at Casino Royale. And with over 20 bars and lounges, the night is yours to explore:

• Dueling Pianos – a sing-along showdown of epic proportions

• Rye & Bean – coffee by day, coffee-spiked cocktails by night

• Lou’s – a New Orleans-style speakeasy with soul

• Bubbles – where you can sip Champagne beneath the stars in Central Park

Caribbean Getaways with a Perfect Day
