To celebrate the release of Despicable Me 3 in cinemas from 15 June, the movie’s mischievous minions Kevin & Stuart took over Carnival Spirit for the day.
With the cruise line and the minions both known for their high fun stakes, it turned into the ultimate meeting of cheeky minds. After boarding in Sydney, Carnival Cruise Line Vice President Jennifer Vandekreeke said the minions swiftly took control of the ship and went totally bananas.
“We’ve all seen the Despicable Me movies but we had no idea that these little yellow characters could get up to so much mischief on our ship,” Ms Vandekreeke said.
“They went nuts over the fruit carving, couldn’t get enough of the Waterpark, where they soaked up some sun and playfully tried to shuffle one another down the Twister waterslide. They had so much fun, rumour has it, Kevin and Stuart will be back with another Despicable friend,” she added.
Stay tuned to Carnival Cruise Line’s Facebook and Instagram accounts for details on how to win one of 50 Despicable Me 3 packs, which include a family pass to see the film.

Support Independent Community Journalism
Dear Reader,The Indian Sun exists for one reason: to tell stories that might otherwise go unheard.
We report on local councils, state politics, small businesses and cultural festivals. We focus on the Indian diaspora and the wider multicultural community with care, balance and accountability.
