“It takes game, to change the game… it takes skills to bring thrills… And it takes icons to make an icon.” – Lionel Messi, an icon of football, officially named Icon of the Seas in a suitably glitzy affair.

The event showcased the people who make Icon of the Seas and the experiences onboard possible, highlighting crew members from around the world who form the Royal Caribbean team.

Audience members got a preview of the fantastic aqua show with aerial acrobatics, synchronised swimming, dancing and diving to a remix of the soundtracks of the Batman movies which was epic.

Entertainment included a very impressive medley by the Red Hot Chilli Pipers (pipe band) and were treated to a spectacle of fireworks to end an eventful day.

Icon of the Seas – Ultimate Family Vacation

The new ship features an all-encompassing lineup of eight neighbourhoods that come alive day and night, including five brand-new adventures and three bold, returning favourites. Each one is a destination in and of itself filled with an array of experiences, live entertainment and ways to grab a bite and a drink, so that everyone can make memories their way every day.
