Coming in at 1,130 feet long and 137 feet wide, it's roughly the length of 3.1 football fields, as wide as 2.6 tractor-trailers and the same height as a 17-story building.

The ship measures 1,130 feet (344 meters) in length and falls in line as number 3 among the 27 active ships that make up the fleet. Carnival Mardi Gras is included in Carnival’s XL Class. At full capacity, the Carnival Mardi Gras holds 8,375 passengers. I have been on both the Celebration and the Mardi Gras. They are basically identical minus some of the theme areas. The Mardi Gras has a New Orleans/Mardi Gras theme while the Celebration is Miami/Art Deco. The biggest difference in venues is two of the bars on deck six. They have different themes and drinks on the two ships. From end to end, the Carnival Mardi Gras length equals 1,130 feet (344 meters). Compare that to the average ship length of all 27 active vessels in Carnival fleet, measuring 985 feet (300 meters).

Both Carnival Celebration and Mardi Gras offer Caribbean itineraries ranging from 6 to 9 nights, visiting popular destinations such as Amber Cove, Mahogany Bay, Cozumel, and Nassau. Carnival Celebration is the newest vessel from Carnival, while Mardi Gras showcases New Orleans culture and offers unique features like the BOLT rollercoaster and I've sailed all the Oasis class, and visited Mardi Gras twice (but haven't sailed her yet). Maybe it's b/c of how much I've sailed Oasis class, but Mardi Gras is more exciting to me. I love the "many small venues vs a few large ones" approach. Lots of variety, really innovative design, and Carnival definitely doing some very different things. I've done both. I prefer Mardi Gras because 1.) I like sailing from Port Canaveral, 2.) I hate sailing from Miami, and 3.) I like the decor and the bars better on Mardi Gras. Aside from the slight differences already mentioned above, they're the same ship. Ship Size.

The Mardi Gras and the Celebration are in the same class, which means they're sister ships. Kids were more on Celebration, but that I believe was just time frame as it was a July cruise vs a Mardi Gras late September. I liked the Port Canaveral overall experience much better than Miami. he Bolt was effectively down the entire cruise on Celebration (saw it run a handful of time), Mardi Gras was operational the entire cruise ST. LOUIS — St. Louis' Mardi Gras celebration will reach a crescendo in Soulard this weekend. The Grand Parade caps off a week of parties and parades of humans and dogs alike. Ship Size.

Compared to the Carnival Vista, the Mardi Gras is 35% larger in terms of overall tons. Nothing on Celebration/Mardi Gras compared to it. I see why they have Utopia going back and forth from it every 3/4 days, it's a huge draw. Not sure about the kids part of that either. Both are great, overall experience wise I'd give Wonder 8/10 and Celebration/Mardi Gras 8.5/10 Mississippi’s Best Mardi Gras Celebrations You Can’t Miss. Mardi Gras is a time of revelry, tradition, and joy—and Coastal Mississippi knows how to celebrate in style. While New Orleans may be the most famous destination for Mardi Gras, the Gulf Coast boasts its own unique blend of parades, delicious king cake, and family-friendly fun. Mardi Gras and her sister Celebration have a few more free food options than every ship older than them. Both companies ships usually have free slides and flowrider surfing. Many of Royal ships also have things like zip lines, laser tag, bumper cars, carousel, ice skating for free as well as a couple of options that are free some days and paid Vista's main theater was quite small for the size boat it is, and I've heard similar complaints on the Excel class (Mardi Gras, Celebration, Jubilee) layout but haven't been on one yet myself. If that's your main requirement you might not really like either boat. Ship Size. The Mardi Gras is considered a large size ship.
