Exciting Cruise Nightlife Options on Celebrity

Last updated: June 4th, 2024

When the sun goes down, cruise nightlife options abound on board a Celebrity Cruises premium cruise ship. Cruise entertainment is delightful and diverse, providing something for everyone.

Thrilling Theatre Performances

Enjoying a live performance is one of the best things to do on a cruise . Watch exhilarating Broadway-worthy productions with casts of gifted performers in Celebrity’s grand theater. Elyria, an original musical, is an adults-only production that puts an intriguing twist on a fairytale with enchanting, dream-like visuals and acrobatics alongside powerful singing and dancing.

Lively performance in Rock City, Celebrity Cruises

You may want to dance in the aisle while watching a performance of Rock City, a live stadium-style concert featuring rock anthems that will take you back and rock you forward. Other live performances include magic shows, comedy skits, and music performances. Check out your daily copy of Celebrity Today for performance times.

Bountiful Bars and Lounges

With some of the best mixologists and sommeliers in the business right onboard your ship, you’ll have no trouble finding the right venue to suit your cruise nightlife mood and taste.

People hanging out at Martini Bar for cruise nightlife on Celebrity Edge

Martini BarChill out, literally, at Martini Bar & Crush thanks to the shaved ice-topped bar, where you can meet friends and make friends while sipping a decadent specialty martini. Stop by for an after-dinner or after-show drink if you’re not ready to head to your stateroom, and watch the excitement build as the bartenders do their impressive multi-cup pours.

Celebrity Cruises offers fine dining experiences throughout the ship, and at World Class Bar , we offer a “fine drinking” experience as well. Smooth, special, and sophisticated describe the bar’s space, ambiance, and drinks, which are made by bowtied mixologists using uncommon ingredients and sometimes for one night only. Cruise nightlife can begin or end here as you raise a handcrafted-cocktail toast to the start of your cruise or bid it a fond farewell.

Friends hanging out over wine at Cellar Masters to enjoy Celebrity cruise nightlife

Cellar Masters

There’s always a favorite wine to quaff or a new wine flight to try at Celebrity’s onboard wine bar, Cellar Masters , boasting 400 wine selections. This clubby space has beautiful brick and wood accents, a wall of glass-fronted wine cabinets, and cozy, arched-nook spaces perfect for savoring the qualities of that special glass of wine, meeting up with friends, or enjoying an intimate conversation.

Passport Bar, located in the Grand Foyer, is an expansive space with lots of comfortable seating. It’s a great place to head after dinner to try a craft cocktail or an appealing IPA. Watch some of the ship’s troupe perform musical numbers or dance to the house band’s musical selections long into the night.

Gentlemen chatting over drinks at Michael's Club for Celebrity cruise nightlife

Michael’s Club

If you’re a suite-class guest, stop by Michael’s Club  to enjoy a late-night snack or nightcap. This exclusive lounge, with its country club atmosphere, is open for your enjoyment 24/7.

Classy Clubbing: Cabaret or Retro-Chic

On a Celebrity Cruises vacation, onboard night clubs keep you immersed and entertained late into the night.

Dance to DJ-spun dance-club favorites in a retro-chic club atmosphere at Quasar , the nightclub that bursts with light and sound, including a multicolor light show, bubble DJ booth, and silver chrome and white decor.

Head to the Sky Observation Lounge for romantic, moonlit views of the sea. In the evening this space comes alive, complete with a clubby atmosphere and a DJ. Check out the specialty cocktail menu with drinks named after the Zodiac signs, and see if yours is on target.

Modern interior of Passport Bar on Celebrity Cruises

Passport Bar

During cruise nightlife aboard a Celebrity ship, you and your traveling partners are welcome to start an impromptu dance session at the Passport Bar, Sky Observation Lounge, or pretty much anywhere onboard where you hear music.

Casino Action

Purple themed interior of the casino on Celebrity Cruises

Tempt Lady Luck and head to the casino’s many gaming tables for late-night action blackjack, roulette, poker, and other games of chance. Test your slots skills at some of the best Vegas-style slot games at sea, including video poker.

People hanging out at the Lawn Club with live music on Celebrity Edge

If you love live music, step out to The Lawn Club for cool jazz concerts while relaxing on a velvety green real-grass lawn, or dance to the sounds of a live band playing classic dance tunes at themed evening parties.

Check out the Passport Bar, where you’ll be as equally entertained by a string quartet at cocktail hour as by our jazz quartet playing Big Band tunes or our house band swinging it into the wee hours.

Onboard, you’ll hear music from Motown, British rock, Latin sizzle, Seventies hustle, and more.

Games and Competitions

GoPro game on Celebrity

Ever-popular trivia contests are just one of many games that are part of the cruise nightlife aboard your Celebrity ship. Throughout the cruise, there are lively pop-culture games, many hosted by your cruise director. Check out your Celebrity Today daily newsletter to find the time and location of karaoke nights, games shows, dance-offs, and other amiable competitions, as well as our wildly popular silent disco.

You won't be bored on a party cruise.

The magic of a cruise vacation is created with culinary delights, exotic ports of call, comfortable accommodations, carefully curated spaces and, of course, parties. These onboard celebrations can take many forms: large dance parties and quiet lounges, family-friendly and adults-only, adrenaline-pumping and relaxing activities, elegant and come-as-you-are events, and entire ships transformed into themed cruises .

Prepare for fun times on the following ships hosting the best party cruises at sea.

The 6 best party cruises on the high seas, from sun-deck soirees to disco dance-offs

Ashley Kosciolek

Whether you're a joiner who loves a themed shindig, a sucker for a family promenade parade, a fan of high-class ballroom dancing or a college student who enjoys a raging kegger, there's a line to fit your cruise party style.

If you're searching for a raucous atmosphere with lots of drinking and dancing into the wee hours of the morning, you'll do best on short sailings (two to four days) out of Florida or southern California. Choose a time when primary schools are in session for a more adult rather than family-focused vibe on board. College spring break weeks are often the ultimate party cruises.

If you're looking for a different kind of party — perhaps something more refined or family-friendly — which cruise line you choose is likely more important than the length of the voyage or the departure port.

Here's my list of the best party cruise lines, whether you want to drop it low or raise the roof.

Margaritaville at Sea: Best for budget bashes

cruise party tonight

If you're short on time, cash or both, Margaritaville at Sea — which operates just one ship, Margaritaville at Sea Paradise — is the ideal party cruise ship line. Each sailing is just two nights, and the ship runs back and forth between the Port of Palm Beach in Florida and Freeport in the Bahamas.

Because most passengers seek out the ship for a quick getaway where they can let loose during a couple of days off from work, they're often in the mood to party. (After all, it's 5 o'clock somewhere.)

You'll find pool deck dance parties, Jimmy Buffett-themed nightly shows and several bars and lounges on board. The main lounge, Euphoria, is where you can get your boogie on after hours.

To be clear, the ship is more than 30 years old, so you won't be in the lap of luxury on one of these sailings. However, the pricing is great for cruisers on tight budgets . Fares start from $299 for two people for an ocean-view cabin — just $75 per person, per night (not including taxes or port fees). You'd be hard-pressed to find land-based accommodations for that little, and Margaritaville's fares also include meals and entertainment. The best prices are offered midweek.

Want to make the festivities last a bit longer? You can tack on a two-night pre- or post-cruise stay at Margaritaville in Orlando, or book a stay of two, four or six nights at a resort in Freeport before cruising back to Florida.

Virgin Voyages: Best for trendy parties

cruise party tonight

Ain't no party like a Richard Branson cruise ship party, and there are plenty of them on Virgin Voyages ' ships. When the business mogul signed his name to the cruise line, it was a given that the vessels would be fresh, trendy and ready to rock.

A mix of rockstar chic and drag queen glam, a cruise with Virgin feels like one long fever dream, albeit a pleasant one. All ships are for adults only.

Passengers can expect risquĂŠ entertainment, including lounge singer-style performances; late-night parties, notably Scarlet Night, where everyone is encouraged to dress in red for a giant poolside rave; and wacky events like scavenger hunts and secret below-deck tours that take you for tipples in the crew bar after the sun sets.

What's most refreshing about Virgin's take on cruising is its "come as you are" attitude. On a recent sailing, I saw crew — men and women — dressed as merpeople, passengers who decided to wear tutus to dinner (and they weren't even a little bit out of place doing so), and singers and dancers of all shapes, sizes and ethnicities.

Virgin Voyages' ships will give you music festival vibes at sea — but with much better accommodations and fellow guests who have actually showered. (Body glitter, glow-in-the-dark clothing and fairy wings are all encouraged.)

Carnival Cruise Line: Best party drinks

cruise party tonight

If you prefer to enjoy parties with an adult beverage in hand, a Carnival cruise is worth your consideration. Its mixed drinks are some of the tastiest and most creative in the industry, including specialty concoctions that change color or which are topped with poppable smoke bubbles.

My favorites? Try the Cucumber Sunrise (vodka, lime juice, watermelon syrup, orange juice and muddled cucumber) at the Alchemy bar on nearly any Carnival ship or the Crystal Ball (tequila, Green Chartreuse, agave nectar and lime) at the Fortune Teller bar on Mardi Gras.

One downside is that the drinks can be pricey. If you plan to consume a lot of alcohol, you might want to consider one of the line's beverage packages , which run from $60-65 per person, per day. At that rate, you'd have to drink roughly six cocktails per day to make it worth the cost, and if you purchase the package, anyone else in your cabin who's 21 or older will have to do the same.

Like Margaritaville at Sea, the line offers affordable sailings, but it has a larger fleet of ships from which to choose — some of the best party cruise ships afloat. Also like Margaritaville at Sea, its shorter sailings tend to draw a more party-hardy crowd, so keep that in mind as you determine the level of shenanigans you prefer when you're having a good time.

MSC Cruises: Best for late-night parties

cruise party tonight

Are you someone who likes to party all night and sleep in the next day? MSC Cruises is a great cruise line for doing just that, especially if you're sailing on one of its Europe-based ships. (On a recent U.S.-based sailing, the club was dead before midnight, but the casino and its bar were open until well after I went to bed.)

Every vessel has a host of bars and lounges, but you'll want to make your way to the onboard nightclub, where DJs play music until well after 2 a.m., as long as there's a crowd.

Themed parties include white parties, where all passengers are encouraged to wear white, and snow parties, where the crew blasts fake snow (read: foam) onto the pool deck as passengers dance.

If you also want to party ashore, look for Caribbean itineraries that offer overnights at the line's private island, Ocean Cay Marine Reserve . After the sun sets, the body of the island's lighthouse illuminates with LED lights to create a spectacular show accompanied by a shoreside beach party.

Don't worry if you feel tired or hung over the next day. In true Italian fashion — it's a Mediterranean line, after all — the coffee is superb. Every bar has a fancy machine that can make whatever your caffeine-starved heart desires: espresso, Americano, cappuccino, latte, mocha and more. Note that specialty coffee costs extra if you don't have a beverage package.

Royal Caribbean: Best for family-friendly parties

cruise party tonight

Royal Caribbean is one of the most family-friendly cruise lines sailing the seas. Although the line's ships offer plenty of adult activities on board — late-night clubbing, adults-only hot tubbing and 18+ scavenger hunts — they also schedule plenty of parties for kids and families to enjoy together.

For example, every ship that's debuted since 1999 features an indoor promenade, lined with shops and restaurants, that serves as the venue for special performances. For years, Royal Caribbean's promenade parades included characters from "Shrek" and "Madagascar" as part of the line's former partnership with DreamWorks.

Now, the promenade shows feature members of the onboard entertainment staff performing well-known hits, such as the Beatles' "Yellow Submarine," while dressed in costumes. Pirate ships and other props make the experience a fantastic one for all age groups but definitely for children.

Royal Caribbean also scores off the charts in terms of kids club offerings. In addition to a battery of supervised daily activities, the staff also organizes nighttime events, including dance parties, where kids can get their groove on with new friends while enjoying mocktails.

If that isn't enough, the line hosts several theme nights, which encourage passengers to dress up. Held on sailings of four nights or longer, these gatherings, which are appropriate for all ages, might be themed as masquerade, country western, toga or decade-specific ('50s, '60s, '70s, '80s) parties.

Cunard Line: Best for high-class hootenannies

cruise party tonight

If animated characters, twerking and loud, pulsating music aren't your thing, you might prefer a sailing on one of Cunard 's classic, nautically styled vessels.

On Queen Mary 2, for example, you can partake in ballroom dance classes, where you'll learn to cut a rug with the best of them.

At night, take your newfound (or, perhaps, well-worn) skills back to the ballroom, where a live band plays as cruisers dance classic styles like waltz, foxtrot and swing — often in their most swanky attire. Cunard is one of the few remaining cruise lines that still has formal nights .

On a recent sailing, people nearly three times my age were up dancing until well after 2 a.m. (Seriously, a 103-year-old WWII veteran showed me up on the dance floor several nights in a row.)

During the day, when you're not honing your fancy footwork, the ballroom is used for another more sedentary type of party: afternoon tea. You won't want to miss the pastries and finger sandwiches served by white-gloved waiters. The scones and clotted cream are a party for your tastebuds.

Bottom line

Whether your idea of a party includes loud, late-night debauchery with plenty of drinks or a more laid-back gathering where passengers sip tea in a formal ballroom, there's a cruise that will allow you to cut loose in whichever way you prefer. Your preferences are, ultimately, what determine the best party cruise line for you.

Choose shorter, less expensive sailings for a more raucous experience; select a longer, pricier voyage if you're looking for understated celebrations. Either way, you're sure to have a great time.

Carnival Theme Nights 2024: Schedule for Every Ship!

Photo of author

August 1, 2024

Carnival cruise theme nights

Carnival offers some of the most entertaining themed nights and parties at sea .

Since most theme nights require specific attire , many passengers like to know the schedule in advance.

Therefore, I’ve made this article with a description of them and the complete schedule for all ships for 2024 .

’70s ’80s or ’90s Night

On almost every Carnival Cruise there’s a decade-themed night that celebrates the music, culture, and fashion of the ’70s, ’80s, or ’90s .

You can expect to hear hit songs from each era and have fun while dancing to them.

What to wear? It depends on the decade but generally:

For the ’70s : bell-bottom jeans, psychedelic or floral shirts and dresses, platform shoes. Think disco glam with lots of sparkles.

For the ’80s : bright neon shirts or skirts, off-the-shoulder tops, parachute pants, bandanas, leg warmers, and headbands.

On many ships the the ’80s night is called ’80s Rock n Glow Night, remember to bring with you some neon pieces of clothing.

For the ’90s : grunge or hip-hop-inspired looks with baggy jeans, plaid mini skirts, band T-shirts, flannel shirts, and snapback caps.

  • White Night

White Night is one of the most famous on Carnival ships, it can be found on almost every ship and it is very easy to dress up in theme.

My advice is: open your closet and pick every white piece of clothing that you have , it’s as simple as that.

For its total white look, a man can wear white dress shirts, pants, and shoes. For a more chic version, a white blazer over a light-colored shirt can also work well.

Women can opt for white dresses, ranging from elegant gowns to casual summer dresses. For the accessories pearl jewelry and white clutches are just perfect.

Elegant Night

One of the cruise’s highlights, Elegant Night invites guests to dress in their most formal attire. I have to say that, as time goes by, formal nights become less and less popular.

I personally still like to dress up for a few evenings on a cruise. There is no need to overdo it!

Men can wear tuxedos or dark suits , with ties or bow ties if they like it.

Women can wear evening gowns or cocktail dresses , paired with shiny jewels and evening clutches.

  • Island Night

On some cruises, there can be an Island Night . The idea is to capture the spirit of tropical heavens with Caribbean music, island-inspired cocktails, and activities that celebrate beach life.

The dress code for all includes bright floral shirts or dresses featuring palm leaf, floral, or other bright prints .

It’s basically the Carnival version of the Caribbean Night that you can find among the Royal Caribbean Theme Nights 2024 .

  • Motown Party

The Motown Party it’s a night dedicated to the sounds of Motown, with soulful music, classic hits, and an atmosphere that will bring you back to the golden age of rhythm and blues.

As far as I know, there’s no actual dress code for this party. To stay on topic you can opt for a ’50s or ’60s outfit .

Vintage suits, fedoras, and polished dress shoes for men. A-line dresses, sequined tops, and flared skirts for women.

6 thoughts on “Carnival Theme Nights 2024: Schedule for Every Ship!”

Will all the party’s listed happen on every cruise? Do I need to bring outfits for all then find out when I board which ones they will have or is there a way to find out beforehand so I don’t overpack?

Hello Selena, unfortunately the parties can change very often during the year so there is never 100% certainty about which ones there will be. My advice is to bring clothes that can adapt well to the different parties, but that you can also wear normally during your cruise.

What is serenity night on the magic?

as far as I know it should be a deck party at serenity, which is an adults-only area for guests ages 21 and over.

Our cruise is at the beginning of October and I heard there will be a Halloween party. Is that true? And does it take the place of another one of the parties?

Choosing Your Perfect Party Cruise

Destination and itinerary selection.

When selecting a party cruise ship, focus on the destinations and itineraries offered. Opt for cruises that visit lively ports with vibrant nightlife scenes. Destinations like the Caribbean, Mediterranean, or even specific party-centric events like music festivals at sea can enhance your experience. Ensure the itinerary aligns with your interests, whether it’s beach parties, shore excursions, or onboard festivities.

Accommodation and Amenities

Consider the accommodation options and amenities available on the cruise ship. Look for cabins suitable for solo travelers or group bookings if you’re traveling with friends. Check if the ship offers amenities like pools, nightclubs, spas, and other facilities that cater to singles looking to mingle and have a great time. Comfortable and convenient accommodations can make your party cruise experience even more enjoyable.

Onboard Activities and Entertainment

Explore the onboard activities and entertainment options to ensure a lively and engaging experience. Look for cruise ships that offer a variety of entertainment, from live music performances and dance parties to themed events and interactive activities. Consider joining singles’ meetups or speed dating events organized by the cruise staff to connect with other solo travelers. Engaging in onboard activities can help you make new friends and create unforgettable memories.

Dining and Nightlife Options

Evaluate the dining and nightlife options available on the party cruise ship. Choose a cruise that offers diverse dining experiences, including specialty restaurants, casual eateries, and late-night snack bars. Look for bars and nightclubs with vibrant atmospheres where you can socialize and dance the night away.

Socializing at Sea: Tips for Solo Cruisers

Participating in Group Excursions

Whether it’s a sightseeing tour, water activities, or cultural immersion, group excursions provide a fantastic opportunity to socialize while discovering exciting destinations.

Staying Safe While Having Fun

While socializing is key, remember to prioritize your safety. Always inform someone trustworthy about your plans and activities. Stay aware of your surroundings, especially when interacting with new acquaintances. Trust your instincts and avoid putting yourself in risky situations. By keeping safety in mind, you can enjoy socializing on your party cruise while ensuring a memorable and secure experience.

Money Matters: Budgeting for Your Solo Adventure

Understanding inclusive vs. extra costs.

When planning your solo adventure on a party cruise ship, it’s crucial to differentiate between inclusive and extra costs. Inclusive costs typically cover your cabin, meals in designated dining areas, basic beverages like water, tea, and coffee, and access to onboard activities and amenities. They form the core of your initial booking price. On the other hand, extra costs might include alcoholic beverages, specialty dining options, gratuities, spa services, shore excursions, Wi-Fi, and retail purchases. By understanding these distinctions, you can budget more effectively for your trip and avoid unexpected expenses. For instance, while your meals in the main dining area are usually included, that fancy cocktail at the onboard lounge might be an extra cost.

Finding Deals and Discounts

To make the most of your solo adventure without breaking the bank, it’s essential to seek out deals and discounts when booking your party cruise. Keep an eye out for early booking promotions, last-minute deals, repositioning cruises, and group discounts if you’re traveling with friends. Websites specializing in cruise deals often offer package discounts, onboard credits, or reduced deposits. Additionally, consider cruising during off-peak seasons or being flexible with your travel dates to benefit from lower fares. By researching and comparing rates from different cruise lines and travel agencies, you can secure the best possible deal for your solo voyage. Remember, a little extra effort in hunting for discounts can leave you with more cash in your pocket to enjoy activities onboard or explore exciting destinations during your cruise.

Real Cruiser Reviews: Stories from the Deck

Memorable moments from singles.

Sharing unforgettable experiences with fellow solo cruisers on party ships can create lasting memories. Picture yourself dancing under the stars on the deck, joining themed parties, and participating in exciting onboard activities. These moments not only add fun to your journey but also offer opportunities to forge new friendships with like-minded individuals. Imagine the thrill of meeting someone new at a singles’ meetup and discovering a shared passion for adventure.

Testimonials on the Party Scene

Reading testimonials from solo travelers who have enjoyed party cruises can provide valuable insights. Imagine hearing about someone’s incredible time at the onboard nightclub, the delicious cuisine at themed dinners, or the exciting shore excursions with newfound friends. Testimonials often highlight the vibrant nightlife, engaging entertainment, and welcoming atmosphere onboard, giving you a glimpse of what to expect and motivating you to embark on your own adventure. Explore firsthand experiences that showcase the social aspect, entertainment options, and overall excitement of party cruise ships for singles.

10 Best Party Cruises

1. oasis of the seas.

Oasis of the seas 70s party

Royal Caribbean is known for making some of the most extravagant cruise ships in the world. Recently, I was on the Oasis of the Seas and the party never stopped.

Whether it was at Spotlight Karaoke, The Rising Tide Bar, The Pig & Whistle English Pub or Blaze Night Club, there was always something going on. Having all these entertainment venues, is one of the best things about the Oasis of the Seas cruise ship, because the fun never stops.

If you like live music and dancing, there is the Music Hall. This bar and club has live performances and a dance floor.

During the day, there is the pool deck with many bars, hot tubs, pools and water slides. Hanging out by the pool is a great time and a great way to meet new people.

Another cool thing about the Oasis of the Seas is the amazing Boardwalk neighborhood, with Johnny Rockets and Playmakers sports bar. If you’re into sports, you’ll have the best time watching a sports game at Playmakers.

Tip: Cruising during winter break, spring break and summer vacation are the best ways to ensure that you will be on a fun party cruise.

2. Norwegian Joy

Norwegian Cruise Line tends to cater towards a younger crowd, so if you’re a young adult , you’ll love cruising with Norwegian. Norwegian is one of the best cruise lines for drinking, partying and having fun.

The Norwegian Joy is a newer cruise ship which began sailing in North America in 2019. This cruise ship has plenty of activities onboard including a virtual reality room, water slides and Go-Karting.

Onboard the Norwegian Joy, there is an adult only area called Spice H20 on deck 17, which is inspired by Ibiza. During the day it’s an area to grab a drink and relax, however in the evening it becomes a completely different atmosphere.

In the evening time at Spice H20, you’ll get to party and dance under the stars, something fun and unique about the Norwegian Joy.

Tip: On most cruise lines passengers have to be 21 to drink. Onboard Norwegian, passengers who are 18 years old can consumer beer or wine in international waters with the permission of a parent.

3. Carnival Mardi Gras

Carnival Cruise Line is known for having fun ships, and fun passengers who like to have a good time. On the Carnival Mardi Gras, there are plenty of activities for young people and the young at heart, such as a water park, a 600 foot ropes course and the Bolt Roller Coaster!

Since the Carnival Mardi Gras has nearly 20 different bars onboard, a fun thing for passenger to do is bar crawling. Experiencing the different bars onboard is so much fun and a great way to try the beverages that Carnival has to offer.

If you’re looking for a fun party cruise, check out the Carnival Mardi Gras. You’ll find that many of the other passengers onboard are looking to party and have a good time as well!

Tip: Short Bahamas cruises (3-4 days) usually attract those that want to party more than any other. Plan a long weekend cruise for a fun friends getaway.

4. Virgin Scarlet Lady

Virgin Voyages is an adult only cruise line that’s doing things differently. The target market for Virgin Voyages are a younger demographic , however active and open minded cruisers of all ages will feel at home.

The Virgin Scarlet Lady has a cool, fun party vibe. This cruise ship has a tattoo parlour onboard and the “Scarlet Night Party”, which is known as one of the best parties at sea.

For the Scarlet Night, cruise passengers or “sailors”, as Virgin calls them, are told to wear red. Scarlet night is a crazy pool party that is loads of fun! As the night progresses, the party moves down into the various bars and clubs around the cruise ship.

The Manor is the Scarlet Lady’s nightclub, which might be the nicest nightclub at sea! The Manor is a two story night club with a dance floor, live music and a DJ.

Since Virgin is an adult only cruise line , this means that there will be no kids. This means that the entertainment onboard is catered towards adults instead of it being family friendly.

If you’re looking to party and have the ultimate adult only experience, check out the Virgin Scarlet Lady.

5. MSC Meraviglia

The MSC Meraviglia came in 2017. This cruise ship is known for its beautiful two story Infinity atrium, glittering Swarovski staircase and its resort style pool deck. Luckily, MSC tends to be a more affordable cruise line, which attracts a lot of young adults.

Here are some things to expect on this cruise if you like to party:

The TV & Studio bar is an area where you can do karaoke, watch live shows and grab a drink. As it gets later, check out the Meraviglia bar & lounge. This is the night club area where passengers drink, dance and party late into the night.

Overall, the MSC Meraviglia is a fun and beautiful cruise. The great thing about cruising with MSC is that they tend to be very affordable vacation.

Tip: Caribbean and Mexico cruises are fun party cruises as the party continues on the beaches and affordable excursions.

6. Wonder of the Seas

The Wonder of the Seas is the newest ship from Royal Caribbean cruise line , and one of the largest cruise ships in the world!

This cruise ship is very similar to the Oasis of the Seas, which is in my opinion, the ultimate party cruise. Of course, the Wonder of the Seas is new and there are even more great things to do!

Cruising on the Wonder of the Seas is a great way to travel and have fun while doing it. There is plenty of entertainment, including an Aqua Show.

Whether it’s during the day or in the evening, the party never stops on Royal Caribbean’s Wonder of the Seas.

Carnival Cruise Vista

Carnival Cruises are always a good time and the Carnival Vista is no different. This ship first set sail back in 2016, and it is known as an affordable and very fun cruise.

In fact, Carnival Cruise Line includes a lot , and is an amazing value for a vacation.

Since Carnival ships tend to be less expensive, they attract a fun and younger demographic. This means that if you’re a young adult, you’ll have no trouble making friends and finding people to party with in the evening time.

On the Carnival Vista, there is the Sky Box Sports Bar, which is a really nice place to watch sports game and have drinks. In the evening, Sky Box turns into a night club with a live DJ and a dance floor.

There are also deck parties, which are outdoor pool parties, with dancing and more.

During the day you can grab drinks at the Blue Iguana Tequila Bar, the poolside bar. This is a great place to have a cocktail and relax by the pool.

8. Norwegian Breakaway

Norwegian cruise Breakaway

When I originally went on the Norwegian Breakaway, I was still a teenager and not old enough to drink. However, one thing I do remember is that the party never stopped.

On the Norwegian Breakaway, there are so many fun activities and there is a great night life. The entertainment and activities, and even the cruise director and staff are very high energy.

Bliss is the night club onboard the Norwegian Breakaway. and it is an absolute blast. With great music from the DJ, a dance floor and bar, you can’t ask for more!

As it gets later, the Norwegian Breakaway, many cruise passengers stop in at O’Sheehans, which is placed conveniently near the Bliss night club. O’Sheehans is a bar and grill that serves wings, burgers and nachos 24-hours a day.

One thing that is super unique about the Norwegian Breakaway, is that there is an ice bar (it’s actually really cold!), where your actual glass, the chairs and decor are made of ice. The Ice Bar is a popular attraction onboard the Norwegian Breakaway, so be sure to check it out.

Tip: If you’re planning on drinking on your cruise, consider purchasing a beverage package as it can cost well over $10 per drink on a cruise!

9. Anthem of the Seas

Royal Caribbean’s Anthem of the Seas is known for amazing attractions like indoor sky diving, rock climbing and bumper cars. With these amazing activities onboard, the Anthem of the Seas tends to attract young people who are looking for a good time.

The Anthem of the Seas is one of the largest ships in the world, with over 4,000 passengers. Generally, those who cruise with Royal Caribbean are either younger or, as I like to say, young at heart.

The vibe on the Anthem of the Seas is fun and everyone onboard is looking to have a great vacation.

In the evening, there are plenty of amazing shows going on that are worth seeing. From production shows, guest entertainers and comedians, Royal Caribbean is known for its outstanding entertainment.

Later at night, the party often starts in Boleros, the latin themed night club. Going to the night club is the perfect way to party and meet people, dance and have a great time.

10. Norwegian Escape

The Norwegian Escape came out in 2015, but is a favorite cruise ship for many! This cruise ship has water slides, a ropes course and many bars.

When it comes to getting drinks, there is Cellars wine bar, the Skyline Bar, which is the casino bar and the Atrium Bar, which is a great place to grab a drink and socialize with people.

The Skyline Bar is where most of the partying and dancing happens later at night.

Similarly to the Norwegian Breakaway, the Norwegian Escape has O’Sheehans, a great place to eat grab a bite to eat late at night with friends.

The Norwegian Escape is a very cool ship with plenty of activities to do. There are fun things going on throughout the day and the party goes late into the evening.

Tip: Checkout themed cruises which can be party cruises for people of all ages. Some popular ones that are known for their adult parties include Groove Cruise and Temptations (swingers cruise).

11. Icon of the Seas

Royal Caribbean Icon of the Seas

Royal Caribbean’s Icon of the Seas is the largest cruise ship at sea. Known for its “Iconic Nightlife,” it features 15 bars, live music venues, and entertainment venues.

From a vibrant Sports Bar to a lively Karaoke Bar, and an incredible AquaTheatre, the Icon of the Seas offers abundant activities for all age groups. Whether you’re a sports enthusiast, a music lover, or simply enjoy a relaxing drink, there’s a different experience to ignite your evening every night of the cruise..

While Royal Caribbean is renowned for its vibrant nightlife, the Icon of the Seas elevates the experience to a whole new level, offering a unique blend of shows, live music, and bar venues.

If you’re seeking the ultimate party cruise experience, look no further than the Icon of the Seas. It’s your ticket to one of the most exciting and unforgettable experiences at sea.

12. Virgin Voyages Brilliant Lady

Virgin Voyages Brilliant Lady is the sister ship to the Scarlet Lady, Valiant Lady, and Resilient Lady. Furthermore, these cruise ships share many similarities, and they are ideal for partying.

Beginning in 2025, the Brilliant Lady is sailing around North America and leaving Los Angeles, Miami, and New York.

Virgin Voyages is renowned for its thrilling entertainment, delicious cuisine, and unforgettable themed parties. From the Pyjama Party to the Scarlett Night, the ship hosts various wild and exciting events that will leave lasting memories.

As the night unfolds, the party comes alive in the nightclub and casino. The thrill continues until the early hours of the morning, with the parties winding down around 3-4 AM, a time that’s unheard of on most cruises!

Virgin Voyages is the epitome of a party cruise line. The pulsating music, electrifying club atmosphere, and overall vibe create an unparalleled party experience at sea, making it the ultimate choice for those seeking a unique and thrilling cruise vacation.

An all-durian cruise experience aboard Genting Dream

As a dedicated durian enthusiast, I was eager to experience Resorts World Cruises' inaugural Durian Party on the Genting Dream.

This unique three-day-two-night cruise, sailing from Singapore to Port Klang and back, offered a delightful blend of durian indulgence and onboard entertainment.

Embarking on the adventure on Aug 25, my mum and I eagerly awaited the all-out durian buffet the following day.

Genting Dream, a vessel boasting 18 decks and accommodating over 3,600 passengers, provided a comfortable and fun setting for our durian-filled journey.

Before the main event, I participated in a fun mug painting workshop featuring Durian BB's adorable mascot.

The Durian Party was a collaborative effort between Resorts World Cruises and DurianBB & Friends, offering a variety of activities and entertainment for guests on board.

Mr Mohamad said in China, fresh durians from Malaysia are considered premium and are more expensive than durians imported from Thailand and the Philippines.

Throughout the cruise, guests delighted in taking photos with the lovable characters who also performed in a captivating mascot show.

The show was a hit with both children and adults, featuring catchy songs, a science show, bubbles and a ball game.

Disembarking at around 2pm, we arrived at the designated area for the durian party set to start at 2.30pm.

Tables and chairs were set up for guests to savour a tasting menu featuring various durian breeds, including Darling and Tekka. This was my first encounter with these varieties, and I appreciated the opportunity to compare their distinct flavours.

Ultimately, the Musang King emerged as the crowd favourite, though I enjoyed the Tan Sri XO (also known as D24) as well.

After the culinary adventure, guests were free to indulge in their preferred durian varieties. The availability of coconuts added a refreshing complement to the durian experience. I tapped out after eating 10 pieces but felt thoroughly satisfied.

Returning to the boat, I enjoyed some time in the pool before attending Heroes Of The High Seas at the Zodiac Theatre, featuring Pin Pin, DurianBB and friends.

We enjoyed our last dinner of the cruise at Bistro, one of Genting Dream's specialty restaurants offering a delicious three-course Halal menu. The steak was tender and delicious.

Before preparing for our departure early the next morning, we attended a masterclass by DurianBB after dinner.

The session provided fascinating insights into the durian fruit, such as its 120-day growth cycle and the ideal time for purchasing (when prices are low and durians are at their peak freshness).

We also learned valuable tips for selecting the best durian, including the "3Ss": squeeze, shake, and smell.

Leaving the cruise, we felt satiated with our durian indulgence and the overall experience. We only wish it could have been longer.

On Saturday Night, Monse’s Laura Kim and Fernando Garcia Hosted a New York Fashion Week Cocktail

Just hours after co-designers Laura Kim and Fernando Garcia unveiled their spring 2025 collection for Monse at Genesis House in the Meatpacking District, the duo gathered friends and fashion folk for a celebratory cocktail party across town.

The soirée took place at 215, located within Ian Schrager’s Public Hotel , right in the heart of Manhattan's Lower East Side. Guests were greeted with craft cocktails by Johnnie Walker Blue Label, which were sipped in the moody space adorned with black velvet drapes and chandelier-like art installations. Beautiful arrangements of deep red dahlias and feathery stems by Tabulot florals enhanced the speakeasy-inspired setting.

It was an exceptionally busy day for Kim, who also launched her signature fashion smoothie in collaboration with Postcard Bakery on Carmine Street earlier that morning. Needless to say, there was plenty to celebrate. The festivities commenced with music from deejay and model Mona Matsuoka, who donned a chic Monse mini-dress. Fresh from the runway show, where she shocked the audience with a catwalk performance, actress and comedian Tiffany Haddish held court in a cozy corner booth. Nearby, model Coco Rocha chatted with cult-followed makeup artist Patrick Ta and stylist Elizabeth Sulcer.

From Love Island ’s most adorable couple, Miguel Harichi and Leah Kateb, to top-streamed singer Bella Poarch, the crowd took the dance floor as the music escalated. Fellow NYFW designer and pal Prabal Gurung, who showed his spring 2025 collection earlier in the day, popped by with friends and fashion swans Dorothy Wang and Ezra Williams. Upon his arrival, Kim delighted Williams with a stunning floral cake by From Lucie to toast his birthday. This heartfelt dessert was a delightful treat for guests as they danced the night away, extending well into Sunday morning. Staying true to the spirit of fashion week parties, this one was an all-nighter.
