Carnival Corp. Reveals Miami Site for Global HQ

Carnival Corp. & plc has revealed the site for its new global corporate headquarters, scheduled to open in 2028.

The company has purchased a site in Miami’s Waterford Business District, just south of Miami International Airport. The multi-building campus will house some 2,000 landside team members. It will, for the first time, unite most of the company’s operating units in a single location, including Carnival Cruise Line, Princess Cruises, Holland America Line, Seabourn, Cunard, and Costa Cruises.

In addition to the existing team members working in the company’s existing Miami-Dade office, the combined North America operations will bring together team members previously dispersed throughout other locations. 

“Co-locating our North America shoreside team members on a shared campus – designed from the ground up to support how we work and what we do – will foster even greater knowledge sharing, innovation, efficiency, and career growth,” said Josh Weinstein, CEO of Carnival Corporation. “We look forward to further leveraging our scale by bringing our teams closer together to supercharge collaboration and support our delivery of unforgettable happiness to our over 13 million guests…”

The new HQ will initially include 600,000 to 700,000 square feet of workspace across the headquarters building and onboard entertainment training and rehearsal facility.

Earlier this year, Carnival announced it would be relocating its West Coast operations to South Florida, with only a small satellite office in Seattle remaining.
