Celebrity Cruises is celebrating Pride Month across its fleet by hosting its third annual Pride Party at Sea, with Olympic medalist Adam Rippon reprising his role as Grand Marshal for the festivities.
Celebrity?s 30 Days of Pride has been ongoing since the first of the month, with a variety of multi-generational LGBTQ+ focused programming happening each day of the week across the fleet. All of this led up to the Pride Party at Sea extravaganza, which took place on 10 ships across the brand?s fleet, including their newest ship, Celebrity Edge.
The officers, staff and guests around the world have been taking part in signature Pride programmes such as The Largest Kiki At Sea, Silent Disco Pride, and Pride Art Hour.
Lisa Lutoff-Perlo, President and CEO for the cruise line, said: ?We are passionate about promoting diversity and inclusion year-round, but Pride Month provides a special opportunity not only to promote Pride, but also to celebrate the LGBTQ+ community and honour all they?ve fought for and accomplished.?
Rippon, who is currently sailing onboard Celebrity Edgefor the celebration, that took place in Ibiza, Spain, said: ?I?m so incredibly honoured and excited to be back again celebrating Pride Month with Celebrity Cruises as Grand Marshal for the third annual Pride Party at Sea! I love having the opportunity to partner with brands who genuinely care for and joyfully celebrate the LGBTQ+ community.?
The party took place in tandem across the fleet, with each ship ?handing off the party baton? to the next to keep the festivities running across hemispheres and time zones. In the end, the party travelled more than 10,000 miles to 10 ships around the world.
