Royal Caribbean Extends the DreamWorks Experience to Mariner of the Seas in 2013

Royal Caribbean International and DreamWorks Animation SKG, Inc. extended their alliance amd announced the expansion of The DreamWorks Experience to a sixth-ship, Mariner of the Seas, when she arrives in the Far East in May 2013. The DreamWorks Experience was first launched aboard Allure of the Seas in November 2010, with character Princess Fiona of the “Shrek” franchise inaugurating the ship as godmother. The entertainment has since been expanded aboard Oasis of the Seas, sailing from Port Everglades in Fort Lauderdale, Fla.; Freedom of the Seas from Port Canaveral on Florida’s Space Coast; Liberty of the Seas, which splits her year between Port Everglades and Barcelona, Spain; and recently, Voyager of the Seas in the Far East and Australia and New Zealand.

The DreamWorks Experience premiered aboard Allure of the Seas when the ship launched in late 2010 and offers Let You Entertain Me: The Madagascar Aqua Show in the ship’s AquaTheater and How to Train Your Dragon Ice Show in Studio B ice rink. The ship also hosted South Florida’s Puss in Boots premier in 2011, attended by stars Selma Hayek and Antonio Banderas.

Having just completed her first season sailing from China, Voyager of the Seas arrived in Sydney this past November to combine the DreamWorks Experience with South Pacific cruises and cruisetours.

Year-round, vacationers can join in the DreamWorks Experience aboard Freedom of the Seas, sailing weekly from Port Canaveral along Florida’s Space Coast, and Allure of the Seas and Oasis of the Seas from Port Everglades in Fort Lauderdale. Furthermore, Liberty of the Seas exclusively offers the DreamWorks Experience in the Mediterranean Sea in the summer season and is a fourth Caribbean option in the winter season.

Royal Caribbean’s younger guests in the complimentary award-winning Adventure Ocean children’s program can enjoy a line-up of activities, games and adventures rooted in the popular DreamWorks Animation films.
