When Is Scarlet Night on Virgin Voyages? Your Complete Guide
Scarlet Night is one of Virgin Voyages’ most talked-about onboard events – an evening where the ship transforms into a red-themed celebration filled with entertainment, music and unforgettable energy. It’s a night designed to bring every sailor together in a spectacular, vibrant atmosphere, in a way only Virgin Voyages can.
What Is Scarlet Night?
Scarlet Night is a shipwide celebration unique to Virgin Voyages. Throughout the evening, different areas of the ship feature short performances, themed moments and interactive entertainment. The experience builds from smaller pop-ups to a large outdoor finale that takes over the pool deck.
When Does Scarlet Night Take Place?
Every Virgin Voyage features one Scarlet Night. It’s most commonly scheduled in the middle of your cruise – often night two or three on shorter sailings, and around the midpoint on longer itineraries. The exact night will appear in the Virgin Voyages app once you’re onboard.
What Happens During Scarlet Night?
Scarlet Night unfolds gradually as you explore the ship. You might encounter surprise pop-up acts, live music, immersive characters or lively entertainment in different venues. The night ends with a high-energy pool deck party where everyone comes together dressed in red.
What Should You Wear?
Scarlet Night is all about embracing the colour red – it’s the only “dress code” you need to follow. Whether you go simple with a splash of red or turn up the drama with a bold themed outfit, the idea is to help create the striking red atmosphere that makes the night so memorable. Many sailors treat Scarlet Night as their chance to have fun with fashion and stand out across the ship.
If you really want to be prepared, I always recommend bringing two outfits:
- One you don’t mind getting wet, as many sailors end up in or around the pool during the main party (it’s not required — but trust me, the temptation hits once you’re there!).
- A second dry outfit for dancing later in The Manor once the pool celebration wraps up.
Why Scarlet Night Is a Must-Experience
Sailors consistently describe Scarlet Night as one of the best nights of their voyage. Its roaming entertainment, surprise elements and finale on the top deck make it a signature Virgin Voyages moment you won’t forget.
