Carnival Cruise Line has launched new ads for the “Find Your Fun Again” campaign starring Emmy-winning actor, author and humorist Nick Offerman.
The campaign is the first under the company’s new brand platform, “Carnival Is Calling,” which launched on November 1. Offerman serves as the face of the campaign.
