Carnival Glory Entertainment Schedule
If you’re planning a short cruise aboard Carnival Glory, this three-day Entertainment Spotlight provides a useful look at the major shows, comedy, movies, parties and family events passengers may find onboard.
Unlike a full Carnival FunTimes daily program, this document is a condensed entertainment schedule covering the entire cruise. That makes it particularly useful for planning ahead because the major events for all three days can be viewed in one place.
The schedule shown here covers a three-day Carnival Glory cruise from Port Canaveral, with Day 2 at Celebration Key and Day 3 designated as a Fun Day at Sea. Carnival notes directly on the schedule that additional details are available through the Carnival HUB App and that programming is subject to change.

Carnival Glory 3-Day Entertainment Spotlight
The Carnival Glory Entertainment Spotlight divides the cruise into three days and highlights programming in several categories: Amber Palace shows, Ebony Lounge entertainment, family events, Dive-In Movies and featured events.
It is not intended to replace the complete Carnival daily planner. Instead, it works as a quick overview of some of the major entertainment passengers may want to plan around.
For anyone researching Carnival Glory activities before sailing, it also provides a good example of how much entertainment Carnival can fit into a short three-night itinerary.
Day 1: Port Canaveral
The first day begins in Port Canaveral and quickly moves into the traditional embarkation-day entertainment.
Sail Away is scheduled for 3:30 p.m. on Lido, giving passengers an early event to attend as the cruise gets underway. Later in the evening, the Amber Palace hosts Welcome Aboard Bingo at 8:30 p.m. followed by the Welcome Aboard Show at 9:30 p.m.
Comedy is another major option on the first night. The Punchliner Comedy Club has a PG performance at 7:30 p.m., followed by a late-night R-18+ comedy showcase at 11:00 p.m.
Families can head to the Family Piano Bar from 9:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. at The Cinn-A-Bar.
The first day’s featured event is Guess That Song 90s at 7:45 p.m. in the Amber Palace.
Day 1 Dive-In Movies
Passengers interested in an outdoor movie night have two films on the Day 1 schedule:
Life As We Know It (PG-13) – 6:30 p.m.
F1: The Movie (PG-13) – 9:30 p.m.
With the Welcome Aboard Show, comedy, movies and other events overlapping during the evening, the schedule illustrates why checking the Carnival HUB App and deciding what you most want to see can be helpful even on a three-day cruise.
Day 2: Celebration Key
Day 2 is the cruise’s Celebration Key port day.
The evening’s major theater production is Epic Rock, performed in the Amber Palace at both 7:30 p.m. and 9:30 p.m. Having two scheduled performances gives passengers some flexibility when planning dinner and evening entertainment.
The Punchliner Comedy Club is also featured, with a PG performance at 8:30 p.m. and an R-18+ late-night comedy showcase at 11:15 p.m.
Elsewhere onboard, Meet the Senior Officers is scheduled for 6:45 p.m. at the Casino Bar. Later that night, the ’80s Rock-N-Glow Party begins at 10:30 p.m. on Lido.
The day’s featured event is a Hula Hoop Contest at 4:15 p.m. on Lido.
Day 2 Dive-In Movies
Two Dive-In Movies are listed following the Celebration Key visit:
Now You See Me: Now You Don’t (PG-13) – 6:30 p.m.
Nobody 2 (R) – 12:00 a.m.
This creates several different evening options after the port day, ranging from a production show and comedy to an outdoor movie or late-night deck party.
Day 3: Fun Day at Sea
The final day is designated as a Fun Day at Sea, and the featured entertainment begins much earlier than on the previous two days.
Seuss-a-Palooza Story Time is scheduled for 11:45 a.m. in the Amber Palace. The featured Groove for St. Jude event follows at 12:45 p.m. on Lido, while the Legend of Lido Competition, marked 18+, is scheduled for 2:45 p.m.
The Punchliner Comedy Club offers two PG performances during the day and evening, at 3:15 p.m. and 8:30 p.m.
A Build-A-Bear Workshop at Sea Party, marked as a fee-based activity, is scheduled for 4:30 p.m.
Final Night Entertainment
The last evening includes some of the cruise’s headline entertainment.
Deal or No Deal Game Show, marked as a fee-based activity, begins at 7:30 p.m. in the Amber Palace. The Love & Marriage Show, marked 18+, follows at 9:00 p.m.
Passengers looking for music rather than a show can find the Fun Farewell Music Party at 10:00 p.m. in The Colors Lobby.
Together, these events create a busy final night with entertainment ranging from comedy and game shows to movies and music.
Day 3 Dive-In Movies
The final Fun Day at Sea also includes two Dive-In Movies:
The Notebook (PG-13) – 6:30 p.m.
The Great Gatsby (PG-13) – 9:00 p.m.
As with the previous evenings, several activities overlap. Passengers interested in both the main theater entertainment and Dive-In Movies will want to compare times before deciding how to organize their evening.
What This Carnival Glory Schedule Tells You
One of the most useful things about this three-day schedule is seeing how Carnival spreads entertainment throughout a short cruise.
Embarkation day focuses heavily on welcoming passengers onboard, with Sail Away, the Welcome Aboard Show, comedy and evening movies.
The Celebration Key port day shifts much of the major entertainment into the evening, including Epic Rock, comedy and the ’80s Rock-N-Glow Party.
The sea day has programming beginning much earlier, including family activities and featured events during the afternoon before the final evening’s entertainment.
It also shows how quickly scheduling conflicts can arise. On some evenings, passengers have theater performances, comedy and Dive-In Movies taking place around the same time. Checking the daily program in the Carnival HUB App once onboard can help with choosing priorities.
Carnival Glory Entertainment Venues
The schedule highlights several venues around Carnival Glory.
Amber Palace hosts major productions, game shows and other featured events. The Ebony Lounge is used for Punchliner Comedy Club performances, while Lido hosts Sail Away, deck parties and several featured events.
The Colors Lobby appears as the location for the Fun Farewell Music Party, while The Cinn-A-Bar hosts the Family Piano Bar.

For passengers unfamiliar with Carnival Glory, knowing these venue names before boarding can make the first day a little easier to navigate.
