Written by Shane Black | 13 June 2024 2:31:00 PM

The sun shone brightly over the port of Miami, casting a golden hue on the pristine decks of the MSC World America. Families buzzed with excitement as they boarded what promised to be the ultimate family vacation at sea, a cruise that would redefine their holiday experience.

MSC Cruises, a family-owned company known for its exceptional kid's offerings, has unveiled its latest gem, the MSC World America. This state-of-the-art megaship is set to sail in April 2025, bringing with it a world of new activities and spaces, thanks to a unique partnership with the LEGO Group.

A Ship Designed with Families in Mind

As families step aboard MSC World America, they're greeted by the vibrant and inviting Family Aventura district. Spanning a staggering 10,000 square feet, this area is home to the largest and most technologically advanced kids' club in the MSC Cruises fleet. Here, children of all ages can explore seven different rooms, each designed to cater to their specific age groups, from toddlers to teenagers.

The all-new MSC World America to set sail in 2025

Steve Leatham, Head of Entertainment for MSC Cruises, shared the vision behind this ambitious project: "We set ourselves the goal to create the most exceptional kids and family offering at sea with MSC World America. Our aim is to give our younger guests the freedom to express their creativity, play, socialize and explore with amazing spaces and programs that have to be seen to be believed."

Unleashing Creativity with LEGO®

A key highlight of MSC World America is its collaboration with the LEGO Group, bringing a plethora of LEGO® themed activities to the high seas. From the first-ever LEGO® parade at sea to the engaging LEGO® Family Game Show, there's something for every LEGO® enthusiast.

Matteo Mancini, Senior Manager of Youth Entertainment for MSC Cruises, emphasized the importance of listening to their young guests: "We specifically listened to our young guests from North America to design our kids and family offering. We are bringing a variety of extraordinary facilities and new experiences never seen before!"

The LEGO® Family Zone is set to be a hit, where families can come together to build, play, and create. Imagine the excitement on a child's face as they march alongside their favorite LEGO® characters in a lively parade or compete in a Master Builder challenge.

 

The Harbour: A Haven for Family Fun

At the heart of the Family Aventura district lies The Harbour, an innovative outdoor park where families can bond over various activities. Here, you'll find the only over-water swing ride at sea, the thrilling Cliffhanger. This state-of-the-art attraction promises adrenaline-pumping fun as it swings guests over the ship's edge, offering breathtaking ocean views.

The Harbour also boasts a high ropes course, a playground modelled after the iconic lighthouse at Ocean Cay MSC Marine Reserve in The Bahamas, and a family dwelling area. It's a place where families can relax, play, and enjoy delicious bites under the sun.

High-Tech Adventures and Timeless Classics

MSC World America doesn't stop at LEGO® and outdoor fun. The ship is packed with high-tech experiences that will captivate teenagers and adults alike. Star Shooters, an adventure course with targets to hit and rack up points, promises competitive excitement. Meanwhile, Luna Park offers the latest in virtual reality technology, transporting guests to fantastical worlds without leaving the ship.

Returning favorites like the Sportplex ensure there's never a dull moment. With everything from basketball courts to interactive game shows, bumper cars, and roller skating, there's an activity for every interest. The Drone Academy, a lively and high-tech drone relay race, adds a futuristic twist to the lineup of fun.

A Commitment to Exceptional Family Experiences

MSC Cruises has always been dedicated to providing unforgettable experiences for families, and MSC World America takes this commitment to new heights. From the largest Doremiland kids' area to innovative partnerships and cutting-edge technology, every aspect of the ship is designed with families in mind.

As families look forward to their next vacation, MSC World America stands out as the ultimate choice for a family cruise. The ship's unparalleled offerings ensure that every member of the family, from the youngest child to the oldest grandparent, will find something to enjoy and cherish.
