Does MSC do anything special for NYE?

We are on the Divina 12/28 - 1/7/24.  Our itinerary is in the Caribbean/Bahamas.  Does MSC do anything special for NYE?

On previous cruises it was always an Elegant night with a special menu and then a New Years Eve party..   Before covid there were always a couple of special dishes from a celebrity chef, but I haven't heard about that recently.

 

e.g. from 2016:

Yes, they jack up the cost by 200% like everyone else does.

Thank you that was so helpful.  Give yourself a pat on the back for your attempt at wit.

I don't recall anything special, but times change. Here is NYE on Seascape. Just a 1 pm at the Atrium After Party and Party at the Marina Pool at 11pm.

This is helpful.  I'll be on the Divina but my guess is the NYE will be similar for the US based itineraries.  Now hopefully I can stay awake until midnight...😁

I was on MSC for NYE last year & will be on MSC for this year too.  I filmed this last year on Virtuosa.

They don't do a lot per se, but certainly it's very lively, gala night, with a somewhat upgraded menu.

Here's another video from our ship last year, although I don't know the person who recorded it.  You can see that the ship was packed.  As shown, they do balloons and such.

Your family gets a free cruise if you don’t survive the mugging.
