Halloween at sea? Yes, please! If you’ve never sailed with Carnival during October, you’re in for a fang-tastic treat. Every year, Carnival transforms its fleet into floating haunted houses filled with spooky fun, eerie décor, and festive activities the whole family (or your fun-loving friend group) can enjoy.
We’re talking about Halloween decorations, costume contests, parades, special cocktails, and themed events that make October cruises extra special. It’s one of the best times to sail, and we’re excited to confirm that Carnival’s Frightfully Fun Halloween sailings are officially back for 2025!
