Carnival Cruise Line has recently debuted the Heroes Tribute Bar — a venue dedicated to honoring America’s military — on its brand new Carnival Panorama liner.
The bar itself is decorated with military memorabilia, including “distinctive All-American décor with logos of the five armed service branches of the U.S. military,” per a press release.
Photos of the interior also show walls covered in flags and images of servicemen and servicewomen.
“The Heroes Tribute Bar is a project that is very near and dear to my heart and one that everyone at Carnival is extremely proud of,” explained Christine Duffy, the president of Carnival Cruise Line, in a statement.
She said, “We’re always looking for new ways to honor our military heroes and this new outlet is a wonderful tribute to the sacrifices of our Armed Services personnel and their families, and a wonderful complement to our extremely popular military tributes which are held on each and every Carnival cruise.”
The Heroes Tribute Bar will donate a portion of all proceeds to Operation Homefront, a nonprofit organization that aims to provide assistance for military members and their families.
“We are absolutely thrilled to continue our longstanding partnership with Christine Duffy and the entire Carnival Cruise Line team to raise awareness and support for our troops and their families,” said retired Brig. Gen. John I. Pray Jr., president and CEO of Operation Homefront.
The Carnival Panorama began its regular service on Dec. 14, with seven-day sailings to the Mexican Riviera.
