GRAND PRINCESS

Grand Princess is a Grand-class cruise ship owned by Princess Cruises. Built in 1998 by Fincantieri Cantieri Navali Italiani in Monfalcone, Italy, at a cost of US$450 million, she was the largest and most expensive passenger ship ever built at the time.

Grand Princess was the first of the Grand-class ships, and has a different decor scheme to her sister ships.  She has two large theaters and a large central performance lounge.  The inaugural season featured performances by artists including Lorna Luft, Al Martino, Bob Anderson, Red Buttons, Rita Moreno and showbands including Dominic Halpin with his swing band and Canadian band the Mud Sharks.

The Grand Princess was the setting for a task in the second series of the UK version of the reality TV show The Apprentice.
