Entertainment
Boredom Is Not an Option
With P&O Cruises’ diverse entertainment programme, boredom simply doesn’t stand a chance. One of the highlights of life on board is the unforgettable evenings, when music and dancing bring the ship to life.
During the day, you’ll find so many activities on offer that choosing can be a challenge. Options range from pub quizzes, sports tournaments and dance classes to informative lectures. Luckily, you don’t have to remember every event – our onboard newspaper Horizon, delivered to your cabin each evening, provides a full overview of the next day’s programme. And if relaxation is what you’re after, you can unwind on comfortable sun loungers by the pool or in the cosy seating areas of our lounges.
