MIAMI (September 24, 2014) -- Carnival Cruise Lines, the Official Cruise Line of the Dallas Cowboys,
is turning up the music as part of its multi-year partnership with “America’s Team.” Texas’ largest cruise
operator announced today that it will bring country music superstars Rascal Flatts to AT&T Stadium for a
special pre-game Carnival LIVE concert for Cowboys fans attending the October 19 game against archrival
New York Giants.
Rascal Flatts is the most-awarded country group of the past decade with 22.5 million albums sold and 15
number-one singles.
Carnival also announced that Rascal Flatts, one of the hottest selling acts on tour, will be among
multiple artists who will be entertaining guests as part of the Carnival LIVE Concert Series in 2015 (next year’s
concert dates will go on sale in October).
A first-of-its-kind in the cruise industry, Carnival LIVE debuted earlier this year and offers Carnival
guests the opportunity to enjoy an intimate on-board performance by a diverse roster of popular music artists
while ships are docked at select ports of call. Artists performing as part of the inaugural 2014 lineup include
Lady Antebellum, Martina McBride, Trace Adkins, LeAnn Rimes, Jewel, Styx, Kansas, REO Speedwagon,
Daughtry and more. (Learn more at www.carnival.com/CarnivalLive).
“As huge football fans, we can’t wait to be part of Carnival Cruise Lines’ celebration to help get Dallas
Cowboys fans excited for the big game,” said Gary LeVox, Rascal Flatts’ frontman. “We’re also delighted to
be part of next year’s Carnival LIVE concert series and connecting with our fans aboard their awesome ships,”
he added.
“We are thrilled to have Rascal Flatts join all of the great gameday fun Carnival has planned for Dallas
Cowboys fans at AT&T Stadium on October 19 and throughout the season,” said Jim Berra, chief marketing
officer for Carnival Cruise Lines. “We also look forward to welcoming Jay, Joe Don and Gary on board our
‘Fun Ships’ in 2015 as we extend the fan-favorite Carnival LIVE Concert Series into its second year of great
shows.”
Carnival recently announced its major sponsorship of the Dallas Cowboys and is adding fun and
memorable fan experiences to Dallas Cowboys home games throughout the season. In addition to the Rascal
Flatts performance, at each game at AT&T Stadium, Carnival’s “Fun Crew” is touring the lots on branded golf
carts and offering exciting prizes to fans, including the chance to win one of many cruise vacation giveaways. 2
“We’re proud to bring Carnival Cruise Lines’ signature brand of fun to our fans and our games with
great entertainment,” said Jerry Jones Jr., executive vice president and chief sales & marketing officer of the
Dallas Cowboys. “The Rascal Flatts concert continues a terrific variety of season-long activities that are taking
the Dallas Cowboys gameday experience to the next level.”
Carnival, Texas’ number one cruise operator, will deploy a third year-round ship in Galveston, Carnival
Freedom, in February 2015. Together with Carnival Triumph and Carnival Magic, the line will carry more than
600,000 passengers annually from Texas – more than any other cruise line.
