Do Carnival Cruise ships show the Super Bowl game?
Yes, according to Carnival's website the Super Bowl game is planned to be shown onboard. This is on the USA Carnival Cruise website. I do not have information regarding if the game will air on ships based outside of the USA. The experience you have watching the Super Bowl onboard could vary a bit from at home or on land as the commercials may not be the same due to the ships broadcast coming in via satellite.

Where on a Carnival ship can you watch the Super Bowl game?
Carnival states the primary viewing locations of the Super Bowl onboard are select bars, lounges, and the Carnival Seaside Theater. Ultimately, the location(s) where the game is shown will vary by ship. Most Carnival ships have Seaside Theaters, but not all do.

How can I find out where on my Carnival ship the Super Bowl game is being shown?
You should be able to find this information out once onboard your Carnival ship. The Carnival Hub App lists events & activities. If you cannot find the game listed in the Carnival Hub App, I recommend stopping by a bar or guest services to ask. Someone on the ship's crew should be able to tell you the time & location of where you can watch the game.

Will Carnival have bar service at the Super Bowl showing locations?
You should be able to access bar service while watching the Super Bowl. Carnival will likely have bartenders walking around, but also have the event in a lounge or location where walk up bar service is possible. If the showing location is the Seaside Theater, guests should be able to easily access the bars on the Lido Deck.

Just A Note About Watching Games Onboard:
While Carnival's website states that the Super Bowl game is planned to be shown, if there is a satellite connection issue or problem getting a particular TV station the game may not be able to show. There is always a risk something changes or goes wrong. Connection could be disrupted due to weather, the location of the ship, or a variety of circumstances.
