Klub Rubiks: Throwback to the 1980s

Klub Rubiks is Virgin Voyages’ homage to the vibrant 1980s, complete with electric beats and dance performances by The Happenings Cast. This exciting club night transports guests back to the era of neon, sparkles, and unforgettable music, promising an evening filled with nostalgia and fun. This party night is held on Scarlet Lady (as of December 2024) and Resilient Lady.

Optional Dress Up

Although there’s no strict dress code, guests are encouraged to dress in their 1980s finest for Klub Rubiks. The louder, more neon, and more sparkly the attire, the better. This theme night aims to create a relaxed, yet energetic atmosphere that stimulates guests to let loose, dance, and enjoy the tunes from an iconic decade in music history.

Music and Performances

The DJ set features 1980s music that keeps the party going late into the night. As the early hours approach, the set transitions into club classics, ensuring the dance floor stays alive with movement.

Throughout Klub Rubiks, The Happenings Cast helps to maintain the momentum with their own 1980s-inspired performances. Guests can expect to see:

  • Dancers with Rubik’s cube heads invading the dance floor
  • An interpretive dance performance to Bonnie Tyler’s “Total Eclipse of the Heart,”
  • A show-stopping appearance by The Diva. In a memorable spectacle: The Diva arrives on a miniature grand piano, adding a touch of surrealism and humor to the night.
  • Other silly 1980s-inspired surprises

    We sail on the Resilient Lady from Barcelona to S Florida in late October. Do you have a schedule of what specific nights certain parties will be held? I’m trying to think about packing and coordinating dinner plans and outfits ahead of time. Don’t want to wear 80s clothes to a fine dining restaurant. I’d rather wear wacky casual attire in more casual restaurants on certain theme party nights.

      Hey Harriet, for the Transatlantic schedule we should know in a few weeks when dining opens, have you joined the Facebook group? Typically a TA will spread these over a few nights. We Fancy is typically always the last night on Resilient Lady however.

    We are very disappointed this wasn’t made public earlier. We are on our way from Brisbane and have nothing to wear for 80’s night.
    Hopefully we won’t be the odd ones out

      Is this for future voyages? I’m sailing Dec 6th and I’d love to do this!!

      1. Rob Sammons says:

        This event is only on Resilient Lady on longer sailings but should be on your sailing.

      We’ve just been to the 80s club night on Scarlet Lady, we didn’t wear 80s gear, and we didn’t feel out of place or like we stood out. To be fair, as we were teens in the actual 80s, we knew all the words to all the songs, so we were well cooler than folks in 80s cosplay who didn’t know the words to The Cure or New Order records!
