MSC Cruises has partnered with Cirque du Soleil to offer a unique onboard entertainment experience. Back in 2013 Pierfrancesco Vago, Executive Chairman of MSC Cruises, had the vision to take the entertainment offered on board to the next level. Since MSC Cruises always seeks to work with innovative, world-class leaders, it was only natural to approach Cirque du Soleil. This long-term partnership, will see the world leader in artistic entertainment, Cirque du Soleil, create a total of eight original shows that will be exclusively available on MSC Cruises’ four Meraviglia generation ships, with the first two shows debuting on MSC Meraviglia from June 2017. Six nights per week, this entertainment experience takes place in the a multi-million euro, custom-made entertainment and dining venue, the Carousel Lounge, where guests will be able to enjoy dinner or cocktails and then watch the Cirque du Soleil a Sea performances.
