Star Princess Entertainment Unveils Exciting New Show Lineup for 2025 Debut: Here is Everything You Should Know About It Now

Princess Cruises has revealed an innovative and exciting line-up of entertainment will be available on its new ship, Star Princess, due to set sail in early October 2025. The updated roster is designed to offer a wide variety of theatrical productions, and immersive live, in-person music, and pop-up performances that aim to exceed guests’ entertainment expectations.

The on-board shows on Star Princess are top and center to two exclusive productions, “Meridian” and “Illuminate: A Spectacle of Joy”, as well as a variety of acts to suit all passengers’ entertainment wants. Guests will experience an entertainment experience they won’t soon forget as these new activities make their debut on board.

Theatrical Masterpieces: “Meridian” and “Illuminate”

One of the standouts from the new entertainment lineup, “Meridian” offers a dynamic mix of high-energy dance choreography, detailed narrative and cutting-edge stage design. The fictional castaway drama is based on the glamour of cruise liner luxury — the Celestial — and on noblewoman Arabella Dovewood. The production is directed by creative director Dan Shipton with choreography by Kieran Daley-Ward.

The other main theatrical offering is “Illuminate: A Spectacle of Joy,” an investigation of the power of light, music and human connection. Slightly corny in the nostalgic manner of a circus, this is a visually stunning production, choreographed by Jay Revell and co-directed by Ross Nicholson. The multi-generational pop score, with music and lyrics by Kola Bello, contributes to the show’s festive mood and bouncy feel.

Candlelight Concerts and The Dome Experience

A part from the big productions, the Star Princess will also stage an inventive programme of Candlelight Concert Series. The ship’s illuminated glass-domed Dome venue will become a relaxing atmospheric environment, as guests spread out and listen to a variety of musical styles played in subdued, atmospheric lighting. The Dome creates a special environment where visitors can relax and enjoy an intimate live-music performance.

The Piazza’s New Pop-Up Performances

Along with its full-scale shows, Star Princess also will offer pop-up performances spread across the ship. The performances will be hosted in the ship’s busy Piazza, which is famous for its lively environment. One standout is “Princess Jamz,” a 45-minute live performance by the skillful Princess World Orchestra, under the direction of the cruise director. The orchestra will play everything from timeless symphonies to contemporary chart toppers meaning there’s something for everyone to enjoy.

The Piazza will also be home to the “Celestial Champagne Soirée,” a special multimedia show of light, sound and visual storytelling that will make for a stunning performance under the stars. This one-of-a-kind shop-at-sea experience ends with the traditional Princess Cruises Champagne Waterfall.

Blending Technology with Entertainment

Princess Cruises is revolutionizing the entertainment on their cruise ships with guest experience that magnifies the live show atmosphere. The only theatre of its kind at sea, it accommodates up to 1,400 guests, has state-of-the-art staging, lighting and sound systems, and the biggest LED wall at sea.

Princess Cruises guarantee that you will never forget the Star Princess with a programmed that has been designed to shock, awe and inspire guests each and every night on your cruise with a varied selection of show programmes to make every moment on board unforgettable. Lorna Warren, Vice President of Hotel Operations and Guest Experience at Princess Cruises explained, “We want guests to leave us not only having seen a show, but with memories that will stay with them long after the lights go out on the final performance.”

Other Exclusive Onboard Experiences

In addition to these new stage shows Star Princess will also add a few other options in the entertainment mix that are featured only on Star Princess: “Viva La Música” was launched first on Sun Princess. Developed around Latin-American rhythms and culture, this high-energy production is a dynamic blend of joyful dance and visual spectacle.

Entertainment: The choices on Star Princess are varied and all-encompassing, in a bid to please most tastes. From the magical choreography of The Secret Silk to the glittering spectacle of Born to Dance, the lineup represents some of the most talented performers in the industry—and they’re about to meet their most discerning audience: you.

That dedication to providing an extraordinary onboard experience will be remarkably evident when the Star Princess kicks off the new year with a repertoire of exciting innovations as well as refined cruise traditions. Theatrical productions with a dash of theatrics, live music, and magic filled the top-deck theater where guests can also find the voice of the ocean – a digital sound wave experience that allows guests to participate in a special performance
