New Concepts Coming to The Roundabout on Brilliant Lady
Brilliant Lady’s Roundabout is getting a refresh with new seating, an upgraded bar, relocated Shore Things, and a spacious new layout debuting September 2025.
Announced live on stage during the May 4, 2025, Miami Celebration Voyage, Virgin Voyages revealed that Brilliant Lady will debut a redesigned Roundabout featuring new concepts and layout changes. Our friends at The Getaway Guys have provided the first look at the images, high res concept art should be released soon by Virgin Voyages.
What Is The Roundabout?
The Roundabout is the central hub on every Virgin Voyages ship. It typically features key areas such as:
- Future Voyage bookings (Get Lost)
- Draught Haus beer bar
- Shore Things service desk
- Casual seating areas
- Access to shops and events
On Brilliant Lady, Deck 7 will be transformed to create a more open and functional space, especially around the midship area where Draught Haus is located. The design also highlights the large panoramic windows—especially useful for scenic sailings in Alaska.
Draught Haus Gets an Upgrade
While a new name wasn’t revealed, concept art suggests Draught Haus will evolve into a more upscale venue. The old partitions are being removed and replaced with:
- Comfortable lounge seating
- A new juice and coffee station
This change makes
the space more versatile throughout the day.
Shore Things Finds a New Home
Previously located at the large red Chart Table, the Shore Things team will now have a purpose-built nook between Grounds Club and the main Roundabout doors. This area will include:
- A dedicated service desk
- New waiting and seating areas
The update is expected to improve traffic flow and overall guest experience.
Saying Goodbye to the Red Table
The iconic red table—found on the other three ships—will be removed. In its place, more comfortable seating will open up the Roundabout and give the space a more relaxed, spacious feel. This change will be especially important as new Scarlet Night experiences are introduced.
Rojo by Razzle Dazzle New Video
Virgin Voyages also shared more information with a look at Rojo, the new Spanish-themed concept coming to Razzle Dazzle. The video showcases bold flavors and culinary flair.
Looking Ahead
These updates are part of the broader changes happening during Brilliant Lady’s wet dock period ahead of her launch on September 5, 2025. More announcements are expected in the months leading up to her debut.
