MSC World America is set to redefine family cruising with unprecedented spaces and activities when she enters service in April 2025, including new programmes and facilities developed in partnership with the LEGO Group.
The cruise line previously announced that its ultramodern new flagship will feature seven distinct districts, each bringing together a range of tailored experiences, with Family Aventura becoming the go-to destination for kids and families around the clock.

Head of Entertainment, Steve Leatham, says“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 smallest guests the freedom to express their creativity, play, socialise and explore with amazing spaces and programmes that have to be seen to be believed.”
Senior Manager Youth Entertainment, Matteo Mancini, says “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!”
