BREVARD COUNTY • PORT CANAVERAL, FLORIDA – Construction has begun on another cruise terminal expansion project at Port Canaveral. 

The $95 million expansion and renovation of Cruise Terminal 10 is expected to be completed by November 2027 to accommodate some of the cruise industry’s largest ships, carrying up to 6,700 passengers.

Designed by Miami-based architectural firm Bermello Ajamil, the reimagined facility will feature spacious, modern interiors with a streamlined look and feel, colorful artwork, a striking glass façade that will introduce more natural light, and other design elements that will create a welcoming and inviting environment for cruise guests.

In addition to cosmetic enhancements and a new look and feel with updated lighting, artwork and signage, Cruise Terminal 10 will feature larger security screening and luggage laydown areas.  (Canaveral Port Authority Image)

Expanded security screening and luggage areas, new elevators/escalators, updated signage and HVAC systems are also being added, enhancing the overall guest experience.

“We’ve taken everything we’ve learned about cruise operations to create a terminal that is highly functional and visually beautiful,” said Capt. John W. Murray, Port Canaveral CEO.  “Our cruise business investments are highly focused on ensuring that guest arrivals and departures are comfortable, efficient, and above all, support the high-quality experience we provide for our cruise partners and their guests.”
