Rooftop Garden
Rooftop Garden is ultra-modern live greenery (outdoor lounge) located on Deck 15. It features comfortable seating, exotic lighting, live plants for decoration, a large LED screen for daily media movies in the evenings, panoramic sea views.
In the evenings, Rooftop Garden transforms into a reservations-only lounge with live music performances, dinner pairings and movies. The sophisticated, fabricated tree sculptures, in addition to being very interesting, double as seats for the ship's musical performers.
In 2023, Celebrity introduced pickleball playing courts fleetwide. The sports facilities are complimentary, including the pickleball equipment (net, paddles, balls) but operated with separate scheduled playing times for adults and families (with kids older than 6).
While on older vessels the pickleball courts are either on the Sports Deck or at the Multi-Sports Court, on the EGDE ships pickleball is played at the Rooftop Garden.
