Bare Fest Costume Parties & Events
A GALAXY FAR, FAR AWAY
Beam aboard costumed as your favorite Sci-Fi character or creature. The choices are as endless as your imagination. From classic Star Wars to recent hits like Guardians of the Galaxy or Dune, all known and unknown universes are welcome. Participate in our parade through the ship and compete for prizes in our costume contest. Afterwards, join us for a galactic dance party that’s out of this world!
LIGHT UP THE NIGHT
The Big Nude LED light dance party is always a luminous hit! Choose from costumes that blink on and off or just wrap yourself in battery-operated lights. Be sure to use LED lights only; glow sticks are not permitted due to environmental regulations. Let’s light up the night sky as we dance under the stars.
DARE 2 BARE DANCE PARTY
Come as bare as you dare for this live performance with the Just Married Band. The only thing you’ll need is your dancing shoes. This naturist musical duo from France has proven popular with their lively English cover tunes. Experience the freedom of no clothes as you dance the night away with your fellow bare cruisers. Be there and be BARE!
SUPER BOWL SUNDAY
Get ready for Super Bowl LIX aboard Norwegian Pearl! Bare fans will be able to enjoy the action throughout the ship. Whether you’re rooting for your favorite team or just enjoying the spectacle, we’re ready for kickoff. Showing support for your favorite team with festive football flair—even if they aren’t one of the two participants—can be a great conversation starter.
PASSENGER TALENT SHOW
As our cruise nears its end, it’s time for our passengers’ star to shine! Don’t miss this annual showcase of hidden talents and daring performances. From singing and joke-telling to magic and more, you won’t want to miss these acts. Enjoy the show from the audience or brave the spotlight yourself; either way, this unforgettable night promises to amaze and entertain. Want to share your talent? Sign up for an audition at Guest Services and let your creativity run free!
Complementing our Bare Fest Events, we offer a variety of ‘mini’ theme nights. These fun occasions give guests the opportunity to express their creativity through optional dress-up or accessories.
White Night
Illuminate the evening in dazzling white! Show off your sun-kissed glow by donning your favorite white attire for dinner. From flowing dresses to crisp shirts, or just a simple white accessory, embrace the light side for a night of elegant contrast. After dinner, join us for a relaxed gathering under the stars at the Sky High Bar, overlooking the pool. This low-key environment provides the perfect setting to converse and connect with new friends.
Margaritaville: Tribute to Jimmy Buffett
Sail away to a paradise of laid-back vibes and tropical tunes! Channel your inner Parrothead with a grass skirt, a Hawaiian shirt, or simply your favorite flip flops. Join fellow Buffett fans at our “It’s 5 O’Clock Somewhere” mixer, where the DJ will be serving up a feast of favorite hits from the master of Trop Rock. Whether you’re a Cheeseburger in Paradise or searching for that Lost Shaker of Salt, this night promises a latitude adjustment for all!
Rockin’ ’50s Bowling Night
Strike a pose in nothin’ but your socks, or show off your bare take on ’50s attire. This evening, we’re rolling back to the fabulous ’50s with our Bare Bowling Tournament. Whether you come to join the league or just want to watch the pins drop, we’re bringing back the nostalgia of a 50’s bowling alley.
*The Bare Necessities schedule of events will be included in your Welcome Aboard magazine as well as printed in NCL’s Freestyle Daily program. Passengers are responsible for bringing their own costumes and/or accessories. All themed events are optional, and dressing up is not required. However, we encourage you to join in the fun – participating in these theme nights is a great way to meet fellow passengers and create unforgettable cruise memories!
