Among the ports of call welcoming the 2018-built vessel are Moorea, Raiatea and Papeete in French Polynesia.
Before arriving in Australia, the ship is also scheduled to sail to two destinations in New Zealand, including Bay of Islands and Tauranga.
The Edge will operate its fourth winter season in Australia and New Zealand in 2026-27, offering a series of itineraries from Sydney.
The deployment includes 12-night cruises to New Zealand, in addition to ten- and 11-night itineraries to the Great Barrier Reef.
The 2,900-passenger ship is also scheduled to offer a nine-night sailing to South Australia and Tasmania, visiting Melbourne, Adelaide, Kangaroo Island and Hobart.
Other highlights of the season include a 14-night cruise to the South Pacific Islands that will feature calls in New Caledonia, Fiji and Vanuatu.
The ship is also scheduled to offer open-jaw itineraries starting in early 2027, operating between Sydney and Auckland.
The season runs through late April, when the Celebrity Edge is scheduled to start its return to North America for another summer in Alaska.
According to Celebrity's published deployment, Australia will welcome the vessel again for the 2027-28 winter season.
