Solo on Carnival Venezia?

[HowardK]

Hello, normally I cruise Solo on NCL  from NYC and currently have the Prima booked for next year. However, I like how the Venezia looks? Has anyone sailed solo on this ship and how is the entertainment- specifically the music? I enjoyed Howl at the Moon and the District on my prior NCL cruises for example. Thanks in advance.

I just booked Venezia solo with a casino deal in May.

I read a long review of someone currently on the Venezia.

So far they have just really shown the duet that plays in the piazza.

When we sailed the Miracle for the 1st time in January, there were several musicians each evening--a Latin trio, a duet that did popular songs, a duet with a violin that also did popular songs (liked them better than I thought I would) & a fantastic band. Looks like about 6 different options plus piano player & DJ throughout the day.

They do have a piano guy--not sure if he is like Howl at the Moon or more like the guy on Princess (more just playing well known tunes)

 

There is trivia about every hour all day--various topics.

There is a production show each night (I found them "meh" like Princess)

There are 2-3 comedy shows EVERY night. Often different comedians.

Game shows, Deal or No Deal, Bingo. 

Typical pool/lounge games.

 

People told us we wouldn't like Carnival after having sailed numerous cruises on most other lines.

We loved it--bartenders told us the key to Carnival is longer cruises.
