Princess Cruises has revealed an array of coronation-themed events and entertainment aboard two Princess Cruises ships based in the UK.
Guests aboard Sky Princess and Regal Princess, both sailing out of Southampton, will enjoy a host of activities designed to celebrate King Charles’ ascension to the throne in May.
Aboard both ships on 6 May, live coverage of ‘The Coronation Service at Westminster’ and ‘The Coronation Concert at Windsor Castle’ will be shown on the 300-square-foot jumbotron and ‘The Biggest Street Party’ will be replicated on the top deck.
A ‘Royal Afternoon Tea’ will be served on board both ships, complete with British favourites such as Victoria sponge cake.
Pimms and strawberries will be served on the top deck and favourite British fare such as fish and chips, sausage rolls, and trifle will be available in World Fresh Marketplace.
Talks from guest speaker Grant Harrold, former butler of the King, will take place onboard Regal Princess between 3 and 5 May and on Sky Princess between 6 and 13 May.
The Piazza on board both ships will be decorated with banners and buntings in the Royal colours and guests will be encouraged to wear the Royal red, white and blue for a special dress-up night.
Regal Princess will call to Holyhead in Wales on 6 May as part of the ship’s itinerary around the British Isles.
This means that guests will get the chance to experience the historical moment in a part of the UK that has strong ties with the King.
Sky Princess will offer Coronation-themed entertainment including a special ‘Royal Variety Show’- featuring a tribute to Elton John – performed in the Princess Theatre, as well as ‘Royal Trivia’ in Princess Live!.
