Hey Folks Carnival Triumph Does Have Club O2 For the Teens!

Club O2 Teens (ages 15-17)

 

From the very moment they step onboard, Club O2 teens are part of a cruise experience unlike anything else. Every activity and event has been specially created with 15-17 year olds in mind. From outdoor activities like basketball, volleyball, ping pong, and pool parties to high energy dance parties lasting late into the night.

 

During the day activities are more relaxed, where teens can come and “hang” with their friends while watching a movie, listening to the latest music or just playing video games. Karaoke jam sessions are also popular for our rising stars and star wanna be’s. Even teen only shore excursions have been set up so teens can enjoy the sites and sounds of our beautiful ports with their piers.

 

All activities are coordinated by a Club O2 Director, a dedicated staff member that creates the “fun” for our 15-17 year old guests.

 

Many of our ships feature a lounge dedicated just to the Club O2 program. These lounges feature comfy seating, video monitors, state of the art dance floor and lighting equipment, as well as an area where teens can enjoy Coca-Cola products and various other non-alcoholic specialty drinks.

 

Club O2 Directors are specifically hired and trained to be the catalyst of the Club O2 program. They create the spark that gets all the teens involved. Each director brings their own unique style to Club O2. Their motivation and dedication to the program ensures that they make the teen cruise experience unlike anything they have ever done before. Many of them act as hosts, entertainers, and DJ’s for the teens.

 

Other activities for Club O2 Teens include:

 

• Teen Activity Schedules
  
• Board Games
  
• Card Games
  
• Music Hangs
  
• Themes parties
  
• Lido Deck Activities
  
• Reality Games Shows
  
• Trivia’s and scavenger hunts
