Celebrity Beyond to be revamped ahead of 2028 UK return

One of Celebrity Cruises' largest ships, Celebrity Beyond, will undergo a two-week renovation in November 2026 before returning to Southampton in summer 2028.

  • Celebrity Beyond will be renovated in November 2026.
  • The ship will return to Southampton in summer 2028 for seven-to-14-night sailings.
  • New features will include the Celebrity Pool Club cabana area, Bora restaurant, Orange Peel Bar & Grille, and Tacos del Sol.

Celebrity Beyond, one of Celebrity Cruises’ largest vessels, is scheduled for a two-week dry dock renovation in November 2026. This revamp will precede its return to the UK in summer 2028, offering seven-to-14-night sailings from Southampton to destinations such as Norway, Iceland, and Scandinavia.

The renovation will introduce new onboard venues, including the Celebrity Pool Club cabana area and the Bora Mediterranean-themed restaurant, both previously seen on the Celebrity Xcel. Additionally, two new restaurants will be added: the poolside Orange Peel Bar & Grille, serving smash burgers and frozen cocktails, and Tacos del Sol, a Mexican-inspired open-air venue.

Celebrity Cruises has also confirmed that all four of its Edge class ships – Beyond, Apex, Xcel, and Ascent – will operate in Europe in 2028. Cruise fares and routes for Celebrity Beyond are expected to be confirmed this week, with prices starting from £1,189 per person for an inside cabin on a seven-night Norway Fjords sailing.

What this means for you: If you are planning a cruise, you will be able to choose from Celebrity Beyond's new features and routes from Southampton in 2028, with initial prices starting from £1,189.
