Dinner & Nightlife
Dress up, dress down, or go extra—Virgin leaves the style choice to you.

What to Expect on Virgin Voyages
- No traditional formal dress code means you can choose how dressed up—or relaxed—you want to be.
- Scarlet Night is Virgin Voyages' signature celebration. Red is encouraged, but there is no rigid dress-code rule for the event.
- PJ Party gives you an excuse to pack pajamas, elevated loungewear, or your own creative take on the theme.
- Dinner and nightlife are great opportunities to wear the pieces that feel a little too extra for everyday life.
Entertainment can evolve and special sailings may add different events. Check the Virgin Voyages app and your voyage schedule for the latest details.

- Choose a few versatile dinner and nightlife looks instead of packing for a traditional formal night.
