MIAMI (June 2, 2016) – Carnival Cruise Line has launched the "Ultimate Cruise Night Contest" which invites travel agents to share their most creative cruise night ideas for the opportunity to win $1,000 to use toward hosting their own cruise party, along with a grand prize of $5,000 in cash.

Three finalists will each be awarded $1,000 to put toward their "Ultimate Cruise Night" event.

"We've heard incredible business-building stories from agents who have invited potential and current clients into their home, workplace or local restaurant for cruise night events and we want to celebrate and highlight these successes," said Carnival's Vice President of Sales & Trade Marketing Adolfo Perez. "The contest is an excellent way for agents to share their ideas on how to execute an effective cruise night and the value it can add to their business."
