The Bazaar is a transformational experience that awaits passengers sailing in Celebrity Xcel.
It is a brand-new multi-level, multi-sensory space unlike anything else at sea. The new experience claims to be an epicentre of excitement on board. Introducing authentic experiences that extend guests’ time “on shore”.
Offering non-stop exploration, The Bazaar invites guests to experience the sights, sounds, flavours, and traditions of places they visit.
First of its kind
A first of its kind concept, no two days at The Bazaar are the same. Each day, the three-story space will transform. It will introduce new ways for guests to immerse themselves in the destinations called on throughout their sailing.
The Bazaar comes alive blending guests’ on board and in-port experiences in an elevated and authentic way throughout sailings. From a market featuring local artisan products and hands-on craft experiences, to destination inspired festivals specific to each itinerary.
As Celebrity Xcel heads to Europe, The Bazaar transforms to feature festivals, markets and culinary experiences inspired by Mediterranean destinations.
On sea days, Market at The Bazaar invites guests to take the cities they visit with them. Guests can excite their senses with unique and engaging displays from local artisans. They will come onboard to showcase their crafts, skills and traditions, teaching guests how to make their own local creations. As with all experiences at The Bazaar, the offering at the Market will change throughout sailings. It will reflect each of the four festival themes.
New cultures
New destination-inspired dining options in The Bazaar will delight palates with local cuisines. An open kitchen concept, Mosaic, will serve reimagined and elevated dishes, inspired by the regions Celebrity Xcel is sailing in. Each will enhance a guests’ appreciation of the incredible places they have visited.
For something extra special, guests can delight in an industry-first Chef’s Table experience at Mosaic. Celebrity’s chefs will develop a dish inspired by their native cuisine, plated and presented in an elevated way. The Chef’s Table experience at Mosaic serves a diverse, multi-course tasting menu of childhood favourite dishes.
