Royal Caribbean has shared some of the onboard amenities that cruisers can expect aboard Legend of the Seas when RCI’s third and newest Icon Class ship debuts in July 2026, including a record number of dining options, new musicals and more.
The all-new ship will have eight neighbourhoods – distinct destinations in their own right – and will be the fourth in the fleet fuelled by liquefied natural gas (LNG).
On board, Legend of the Seas will have the most dining offerings at sea with a record-breaking 28 options.
These include Hollywoodland Supper Club, a brand-new Hollywood-inspired supper club concept and Royal Railway – Legend Station, marking the first time this immersive Silk Routes experience will be available on an Icon Class ship.
RCI’s newest vessel will also feature a reimagined AquaDome Market food hall with five new all-day food stands plus a juice and smoothie bar.
Legend of the Seas will also enhance the nightlife and entertainment options at sea with more than 20 bars and lounges, including seven live music spots.
There’s also the two-storey Casino Royale, more spectacular shows staged at AquaTheatre and the Absolute Zero ice arena and the debut of Broadway hit Road Dahl’s Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.
Legend of the Seas is set to level up RCI’s offerings at sea, setting sail on seven-night Western Mediterranean itineraries from Barcelona, Spain and Rome (Civitavecchia) before arriving in Fort Lauderdale in November 2026 to embark on Western and Southern Caribbean holidays, including the cruise line’s private Bahamian island, Perfect Day at CocoCay.
For thrillseekers, there’s the largest waterpark at sea in Category 6, Crown’s Edge skywalk-zipline, Lost Dunes mini-golf, Adrenaline Peak rock climbing wall and more.
Young families will enjoy Splashaway Bay plus new concepts at the Surfside neighbourhood, such as a carousel and redesigned Playscape. There’s also the redesigned three-storey Ultimate Family Townhouse with spaces for the whole family.
Adults will adore the 18-plus-only Hideaway infinity pool and Swim & Tonic swim-up bar and everyone will want to get among Royal Bay, the largest pool at sea.
Royal Caribbean President & CEO Michael Bayley said: “With Legend of the Seas, we are bringing to life our most legendary vacation yet as we continue to push the boundaries with more of what guests know and love.”
“Those looking to get the most out of their vacation can have it all with Legend’s combination of adventure-packed experiences and incredible destinations in Europe and the Caribbean.”
RCI has commenced construction on a yet-to-be-named fourth Icon Class ship.
