Imagine a pool deck flawlessly designed for both relaxing and dancing. A gym you never want to leave. Chilling out on a net 13 stories above the sea. Wellness that surrounds you. Innovative dining with a non-stop parade of choices. Brunch in two places. Everyday. Drag queen hosts and pop-up moments of pure joy. Shows where you’re a part of the action and magic in unexpected places. That’s the way we play on Virgin Voyages with Atlantis.
There’s never been more spectacular settings for Atlantis parties, dazzling venues for shows, and so much more. We’ve never played like this before on any ship sailing today!
Dazzling Spectacles. Everywhere.
Our non-stop festival of talent features our community’s top entertainers and more in truly sensational venues. The transformational Red Room comes alive with Atlantis’ signature performers — drag queens, comics, acrobatic shows, Broadway stars, and so much more. Add in Virgin’s thrilling production shows and interactive experiences to create a landscape of entertainment unlike anything we’ve ever seen.
Get up close in the intimate Manor with a non-stop parade of hilarious comedians, outrageous drag shows, specialty acts, and plenty of surprises. It’s the perfect venue to try out some original talent or a new take on a favorite.
All Feet On Deck
Atlantis’ legendary outdoor parties get an upgrade on a pool deck at sea perfectly designed for our style of free-spirited dancing under the sun and stars. Afternoons sizzle with themed t-dances into the sunset. At night we’ll present the world’s finest DJs in a dazzling production filled with lasers, video, and sophisticated lights filling the night sky. This ship was built for a party like ours!
We’ll mix things up with some fabulous parties and late-night events in the Manor nightclub and Red Room, showcasing a spectacle unlike anything else seen on Atlantis.
Everything Included. For Nothing.
Nobody likes paying for things they use all the time, like Wifi, basic beverages, and a terrific place for dinner. So, we don’t charge extra for them. Ever. Even fitness classes are included! Logon, drink up, spin a little, and enjoy!
Every fabulously original restaurant is included with more choices than any other ship at sea. All you need to do is decide whether to indulge in fresh Italian at Extra Virgin, Korean BBQ at Gumbae, an inventive tasting menu at the Test Kitchen, brunch or steak at the Wake, all-day treats at Razzle Dazzle, and so much more. And there’s no buffet in sight. Or a massive banquet-like main hall. But who needs one with all these amazing spots?
Oh, and by basic beverages we mean sodas, water, coffees, juices, and most non-alcoholic offerings. The hard stuff is, of course, extra.
The Best Deal at Sea. Or Land.
