Celebrity Edge debuted in 2018 as the most radically designed mainstream cruise ship in decades. Breaking from the traditional box-ship aesthetic, Edge features a dramatic cantilevered Magic Carpet — a moveable orange deck element that rides up the side of the ship and serves as a restaurant at height, a bar, and a tender platform. She pioneered the design language that Celebrity Beyond and Ascent would refine, and her combination of architectural ambition and genuine culinary excellence earns her a passionate following.

✦ The standout feature

The Magic Carpet — a cantilevered orange platform that moves up and down the side of the ship, serving as a craft cocktail bar at Deck 14, a fine dining extension restaurant at Deck 5, and a tender embarkation point at Deck 2. Nothing quite like it exists on any other ship.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Magic Carpet on Celebrity Edge?
The Magic Carpet is a cantilevered orange deck element that moves up and down the port side of the ship between Decks 2 and 14. At different heights it serves different purposes: a tender embarkation area at sea level, an extension of Raw on 5 seafood restaurant at Deck 5, and a craft cocktail bar at Deck 14. It's genuinely architecturally striking and functional.
What are Infinite Veranda staterooms?
Infinite Veranda staterooms replace the traditional balcony with a floor-to-ceiling sliding glass wall that opens entirely, blurring the line between indoors and outdoors. The veranda space is inside the cabin footprint but open to the sea air — more usable in port and cooler weather than a traditional balcony.
How does Celebrity Edge compare to Celebrity Beyond?
Beyond (2022) is larger, has an enhanced Rooftop Garden, more Infinite Veranda cabins, and a refined version of everything Edge introduced. Edge is slightly more intimate and arguably more architecturally pure. Both are excellent — choose based on itinerary and price.
What is Eden on Celebrity Edge?
Eden is a three-storey multi-purpose space at the stern of the ship — part bar, part restaurant (Eden Restaurant), part entertainment venue. It hosts immersive performances where performers interact with guests throughout the space, creating one of the most unique entertainment experiences at sea. It's not for everyone but those who love it absolutely rave about it.
