Carnival Cruise Line to Host Another Million-Dollar Slot Tournament

Making money on the water.

Carnival Cruise Line again posted a million-dollar slot tournament. It is the largest-ever casino competition for the cruise line.

Nearly 1,700 guests participated aboard the Carnival Celebration. More than 100 players earned prizes, including a grand prize of $500,000. The tournament was quite lucrative -- $150,000 went to the second-place finisher and $50,000 was awarded for third place.

“Carnival has a history as an industry leader with our casinos, and our $1M Slot Tournament not only exemplifies that but it celebrates it,” Carnival vice president Jonathan Lask said.

“Our onboard casinos bring fun and excitement to our Carnival Players Club members on all our ships, and this week has been a great way to bring many of those valued guests together and amplify the enthusiasm,” Lask continued.

The tournaments have been so successful that Carnival plans to do it again next year.

Twice.

The first will be on Carnival Jubilee, departing Galveston, Texas, on May 18, 2024. The second competition for 2024 will take place on the Mardi Gras, leaving Port Canaveral on Nov. 2, 2024.

Two more tournaments are scheduled for 2025.

Current and new Carnival Players Club guests can sign up online now.

As long as it continues to have the success it has enjoyed, the tournaments are expected to roll over to other ships.
