Carnival Cruise Imax Theater: Movie Schedule, Tips, & Information For Carnival Vista and Carnival Horizon

1/21/2023

 
Carnival Vista Multiplex Theater
          Carnival Cruise Line has two ships with the Carnival Multiplex onboard. This includes an Imax Theater and Thrill Theater. In this post I will discuss some information about the Imax Theater onboard Carnival ships and the movie schedule. 

Which Carnival ships have the Imax Theater onboard?
               As of January 2023, the Carnival Vista and Carnival Horizon are the only Carnival Cruise ships to have an Imax Theater onboard. This is a part of the Carnival Multiplex on both of these ships, which also includes the Thrill Theater.  

Imax Movie Schedule For Carnival Vista and Carnival Horizon: How can I find out which movies or documentaries are being shown on my Carnival cruise?
                   
Unfortunately, Carnival no longer releases the Imax movies scheduled to show on the Carnival Vista and Carnival Horizon. The movies do vary by cruise, but Carnival does not publish a schedule in advance. Once a guest is onboard the ship they will be able to find out what movies are scheduled to play. 
Where on the Carnival Vista and Carnival Horizon can I find the Carnival Multiplex? 
​                       The main location of the Carnival Multiplex is on Deck 6 and can be easily found from the front elevator/stairwell area. The Carnival Multiplex's main area has a desk where tickets can be purchased as well as a desk that sells concessions. When I cruised on the Carnival Vista a kiosk was available for self-service ticket purchasing.
What times and days of the cruise are movies shown?
                            This ultimately can vary by cruise. On my Carnival Vista cruise the Imax Theater had movies scheduled on all days of the cruise, including the first day & port of call days. The number of showings on sea days was higher than the days the ship was going to be in a port of call. 
Does the Carnival Panorama have a Carnival Multiplex?
                            The Carnival Panorama does not have the Carnival Multiplex experience despite being considered a Vista Class cruise ship. Instead this area on the Carnival Panorama is home to the Sky Zone experience.
How much is the cost to see a movie?
                           When I cruised on the Carnival Vista in 2019, the cost was based on the type of movie. Documentaries cost $5.50 per guest. Movies that were considered Hollywood Blockbusters cost $12.95 for adults and were discounted at $9.95 for kids 12 & under or senior citizens (55+). Pricing has likely changed since my cruise in 2019, but I wanted to share this so you can have an idea of the cost from a few years ago. Prices should be posted when you go to buy your tickets on your cruise. 
How do you pay for your movie tickets onboard?
                           It will be charged to your Sail & Sign Card account. This is your onboard spending account while on the ship. Ultimately, this is linked to your credit card, debit card, or backed by a cash account you setup. When you complete your pre-cruise online check in you will have to setup your Sail & Sign account.
What are some tips to have a better experience watching the movies onboard?
  • Book your tickets near the beginning of the cruise to make sure you are able to get the showing you want.
  • If you book early, make sure to not forget to actually show up for your showing. It is easy to forget on the cruise as there are so many things to do. 
  • On my previous cruise the tickets were considered non-refundable. Keep these in mind when you book and also read the info Carnival has posted about terms & conditions when you book your tickets. 
  • Seats on my cruise were first come first service basis. If you want to try to get a certain seat come early. Ask the crew members working or watch for signage indicating how much before a show doors are scheduled to open.
  • Have a great time watching and enjoy!
