What's up with Joannie Madden's Irish Cruise August 27 on Escape?

Just found out that there will be a large group on board for this event. As a passenger who was unaware when booking, what should I expect? Thanks in advance for the insights.

We were on a cruise with Joanie’s group a few years ago.

All her shows and entertainment were limited to her group only.

We could not attend because we did not book through her travel agent.

You can be sure they all paid a premium compared to us booking through an on-line agency. But then we couldn’t attend any of her shows.

Understand we can’t attend her shows, but wondering if her shows close down venues that would usually be available? Are certain bars/lounges off limits, especially in the evenings, because of her group? Thanks.
