cleobear Posted January 18, 2015 #1 Share Posted January 18, 2015 We are looking at the Silhouette for New Year's Eve. We have adults ranging in age from 40-60 and 2 teenagers 16 Will it be lively? We just came off the Equinox 10 day southern and there was nothing happening around the ship after 11 PM. We have done RCL for New Year's twice and had a great time. Has anyone done both cruise lines for comparison? Thanks so much Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuiteTraveler Posted January 18, 2015 #2 Share Posted January 18, 2015 Equinox and Silhouette are sister ships, so I would expect a similar experience. I was on Eclipse - yet another sister in this group and what you described for Equinox is identical to what we experienced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paulras Posted January 19, 2015 #4 Share Posted January 19, 2015 (edited) We're 44 and 42 and were just on Equinox for NYE. There were events but I wouldn't call it very lively. They had 2 small celebrations in one of the lounges during the afternoon for EU and UK cruisers when they would be celebrating at home. There were hats, tiaras, horns and noise makers given out at the restaurants that night (formal night), a (not so) special show in the theater and a huge celebration at midnight at the pool. They had an ice sculpture of 2014 next to the pool and at midnight the captain destroyed the 4 with a mallet and workers replaced it with a 5. There was music, dancing and lots of champagne given out. Around 12:30, a few people finally decided to jump into the pool fully clothed (I may have had something to do with convincing them to). At least half the crowd was gone by that time. By 1am, the party was pretty much done at the pool and the normal crowd hit the bars and casino. It was an experience but I wouldn't consider it thrilling. We probably had just as much fun at the 80s party they had a couple days before in the disco.
