Creator's Key Takeaways

Carnival did not build a carbon copy of the Carnival Jubilee. The Carnival Festival will be different and will offer totally new experiences.

Alchemy Bar is getting a major upgrade. This is not just a relocation. And yes, the Alchemy Bar is moving, but that's not even the story.

I think it's a smart use of the space. I think it's a welcomed change, but you can let us know.
