“Dive-In Movies” are one of the things I love most about cruising on Carnival. So if you’re booked on a Carnival cruise for March, be sure to grab a bag of popcorn (note there is a $4 charge for popcorn), some buffet desserts and a beverage, pull up a lounger, and enjoy a flick at sea! Here are the movies that will be shown on the large outdoor screens on Carnival cruises for the last week of February and March 2024. Note that not every movie will be shown on every sailing. To see when specific movies are playing on your sailing, check your daily printed Fun Times schedule or the Carnival HUB app.
