In 2018 Celebrity Cruises introduced their most innovative and beautiful class of cruise ships yet- The Edge Class. It all began with Celebrity Edge, and since then they have bought 3 more ships into the fleet, and another one on the way, each boasting sleek and modern venues, delicious dining, and unique experiences. The Edge ships are known for one recognizable feature that is consistent throughout the class: The Magic Carpet.
A Dynamic Venue
The Magic Carpet is a dynamic venue- a platform on tracks that moves between decks throughout the cruise and changes themes based on its location. Cantilevered off the starboard side of the ship, it is the stand-out feature that sets the Edge Class apart visually from any other cruise ship in the industry.

On the Pool Deck
Throughout the cruises you will find the Magic Carpet acting as different venues. When it is on the pool deck, it truly continues the party, becoming an incredible bar space with unbeatable views of the ocean from all 3 sides. The amazing bartenders will serve delicious cocktails throughout the day or evening, live musician perform, and there is comfortable lounge seating throughout, making it the perfect space for pre-dinner drinks with friends.
Mid-Ship and Deck 2
When the Magic Carpet is mid-ship on Deck 5, it will become an extension of one of the specialty restaurants, offering guests an unforgettable open-air dining experience. In ports where tenders are needed, the Magic Carpet will move to Deck 2 and becomes a luxury destination gangway for guests to disembark for their next adventure.
(It is important to note that passengers are not on the Carpet when it moves between decks.)
