Mardi Gras completed its first scheduled dry dock at Chantier Naval de Marseille, combining routine technical maintenance with accommodation and public-area enhancements. Connecting doors were installed across 100 staterooms to improve flexibility for families and groups. The casino was expanded with additional slot machines, Carnival Adventures received a redesigned layout, and retail venues including Tag Heuer, Breitling, Pandora and Swarovski were refreshed. Accessibility work included redesigned walkways and upgraded features in public areas and guest cabins. The refurbished ship resumed passenger service from Barcelona on October 16, 2025, beginning a transatlantic voyage to Port Canaveral.
