I went on a party boat with Sir Richard Branson and Boy George.
The Scarlet Night event on Virgin Voyages cruises has become the stuff of legends. The vibrant crimson hue that fills the public spaces is a sight to behold for sailors and guests alike. As I made my way through the corridors adorned with giant inflatable octopus tentacles, I was greeted by a lively atmosphere. Dancers, acrobats, and guests dressed in all shades of red added to the excitement of the evening. It was clear that the famous Scarlet Night had arrived on the Resilient Lady Virgin Voyage, and I was thrilled to be a part of it.

Scarlet Night has become an integral part of the Virgin cruise experience, culminating in an unforgettable party. It's no surprise, as Sir Richard Branson's motto of "Screw it, let's do it" is evident in every aspect of the event. The night is a no-holds-barred celebration, with extravagant parties both in and out of the pool, boundary-breaking shows, and risqué performances. As I danced and partied like I did in my university days, I couldn't help but feel like anything was possible on a Virgin cruise.

The Scarlet Night aboard Resilient Lady, the third adults-only ship in the Virgin fleet, was no ordinary party. Not only was it the brand's 50th anniversary, but it was also the third in a series of Celebration Voyages. These back-to-back journeys took guests from Miami to the Dominican Republic, Bimini, Amsterdam, and finally, Mallorca and Ibiza. It was a star-studded affair, with Boy George taking to the decks and even a surprise appearance from Sir Richard Branson himself.

During a casual chat, Sir Richard shared how he first discovered Boy George and his band Culture Club back in 1981. Later, Boy George took over the pool deck, and guests danced the night away as his iconic hits filled the air. The party continued at The Manor, the on-board nightclub with a glamorous corridor of mirrors perfect for Instagram photos. It was the epitome of Sir Richard's "Screw it, let's do it" attitude, evident in the various shows and performances throughout the evening.

One of the standout performances was Persephone, a daring retelling of Ancient Greek mythology featuring acrobats, singers, and dancers. The audience was captivated by the magnificent display, with some even getting a unique view from the mezzanine level seating. Aerialists performed jaw-dropping mid-air tricks, while others climbed walls and weaved through the cheering crowd.

For a cheeky and interactive experience, The Miss Behave Show was not to be missed. With singing, screaming, shouting, and plenty of innuendos, it was an evening full of surprises and laughter. Those looking for the ultimate VIP experience could book a RockStar suite, which granted exclusive access to Richard's Rooftop, an elegant bar serving free-flowing champagne at designated times.

But it's not all about partying on a Virgin cruise. Guests who are committed to their fitness regime can take advantage of the dedicated spaces, including fully equipped gyms, an open-air running track, and even bungee fitness classes. And for those looking to unwind and recharge, the Redemption Spa offers a range of treatments to revitalize the mind, body, and soul. After all, on a fun-filled Virgin Voyage, it's essential to take some time to relax before diving back into the excitement.
