Cruise ships showing the Royal wedding with Kate & William

Most cruisers are used to the buzz surrounding a large screen set up on a cruise deck and the celebrations that follow the World Cup football so this year it will be a refreshing change to have a different, more special, screening.

On Friday 29 April Prince William will marry his sweetheart Kate Middleton at Westminster Abbey. Many Cruise Lines are going to ensure that none of us miss this special occasion by screening the wedding live on board.

Royal Caribbean Cruises, Celebrity Cruises and Azamara Cruises will show the Royal wedding across their fleet with Princess Cruises, P&O Cruises and Cunard set to do the same.

P&O Cruises' managing director Carol Marlow said: "As Britain's favourite cruise line it is only fitting that our passengers should have a front row seat from unique locations around the globe. It will certainly be a grand celebration with almost 14,000 passengers sailing with us at this time."

No doubt the ships during the Royal Wedding Cruise will offer additional ways to join in with this event - look out for celebration cocktails of the day, Royal quizzes and competitions and plenty of memorabilia.
