West End-style shows
After sundown, we like to turn the heat up, and nowhere more so than in our ship’s plush show lounges. They set the scene for some superb entertainment. You can be watching feather-plumed dancers one evening, and singing along to the West End’s finest musicals or Queen’s biggest hits the next. We also welcome UK stand-up comedians to the stage – sure to have you laughing ‘til your sides ache.

More evening entertainment
Our entertainment doesn't start and stop with our show lounges – whether you're after lively or laidback, there's something for you. Live bands and cabaret acts pop up all over our ships. Plus, you can pull some shapes at the disco – there are even silent ones. If you fancy a quiet evening, there are plenty of cosy corners to chat over cocktails with our acoustic musicians playing in the background.

Daytime activities
When you book a cruise with Marella Cruises, you’re booking the chance to try tonnes of new experiences in daylight hours. Sports-wise, our ships with sports decks lay on table tennis and basketball tournaments, and you can stretch and bend your way through a morning fitness class. We also pepper the day with quizzes and game shows, cookery demos by the head chefs themselves, and talks by experts in their field. And there’s more. You can sign up to dance classes and cocktail-making workshops, for example. Or learn the art of wine tasting and the secret to getting the perfect folds for towel swans and elephants. Just so you know, a small charge may be levied for some activities.

Transatlantic Entertainment
Forgive us the pun, but we really do push the boat out when it comes to keeping you busy on our transatlantic cruises. While we sail steadily across the ocean, you’ll find no end of workshops to sign up to – everything from learning to sing to perfecting your ballroom moves in dance classes. During the day, we throw quizzes, talks, game shows and demos in to the mix. And then there’s the entertainment. In the evening, it steps up a gear with live gigs, stand-up routines from UK comedians, musical guest acts and lavish West End-style shows.
You're Onto a Winner
Our onboard entertainment's something to write home about. Two of our ships have received accolades for their entertainment in the 2018 Cruise Critic UK Cruisers’ Choice Awards. These are prizes voted for by you – the cruising public – which makes them even more worthy of a prime spot on the mantelpiece. As if that wasn’t enough, Marella Cruises also scooped the ‘best for entertainment’ gong at The Wave Awards 2018.
Here’s what some celebrity guests have to say…
“The Marella Cruises Entertainment Team is without doubt the best I have ever seen – so gifted and so versatile – and it delivers such a polished product” – Julie Peasgood.
“I had an absolute ball… I have never been on such a friendly ship with such top-notch entertainment, fabulous food, and wonderful crew” – Cheryl Baker.
Upgrades & Extras
It’s that celebration cake to mark a birthday or an anniversary, that indulgent breakfast in bed, that private sea view. There are lots of ways we can make you feel special. You can choose your cabin number, for example, or upgrade to a roomy Suite. Plus, we line up some fantastic shore excursions. As for other finishing touches, our onboard beauty salons and spas have a great range of treatments, and all our ships come with a speciality restaurant for dining with a flamboyant edge.
