The tournament, which kicks off on June 11 and runs through to July 19, is making history as the first-ever Football Championship to be jointly hosted by three nations – Canada, Mexico, and the United States.
This means supporters won't need to miss a moment of the action while enjoying their holiday at sea. A total of 48 teams will be battling it out in what's shaping up to be one of the year's most eagerly awaited sporting events.
Guests can catch all the live action in a variety of spots around the ships, so there's something for every type of fan.
