About The PJ (Pyjama) Party
Virgin Voyages’ PJ Pyjama Party is a vibrant event designed to kickstart the cruise with a fun, laid-back atmosphere. Encouraging guests to wear their best pyjamas, the PJ Party offers a memorable night of music, dancing, and unexpected surprises.
Dress Code
As with everything on Virgin Voyages, there is no strictly enforced dress code. However you would be missing out if you didn’t don your finest pyjamas for this landmark event (Just keep in mind, always make sure you keep your choice within Virgin’s policies). Guests often use this first-night party to show off their silly side. Outfits range from fluffy dinosaur onesies to racy black negligees! Read Our Guide on “Planning Outfits for Themed Nights”.
Here at VV Insider we’ve designed an exclusive t-shirt for this party night!
Setting and Timing
The PJ Party is often hosted on the first night of the voyage at 11pm, helping to kick off the voyage. It is usually held at the Athletic Club on Deck 16, providing a spacious environment for the party. However, in case of bad weather, the event is relocated to The Manor nightclub to ensure that the party goes ahead as planned.
Grog Walk Finale
For those participating in the ‘Grog Walk‘ pub crawl, the PJ Party serves as the finale after taking a brief detour to change into pyjamas. The PJ Party with its playful theme, energetic entertainment, and array of surprises is worth a visit.
Music & Surprises
The music at the PJ Party is a nostalgic mix of 90s and 00s hits, with some cheesy dance breaks thrown into the mix. A series of surprises await throughout the night, promising to keep the atmosphere lively and engaging.
Highlights of the party often include musical numbers from The Hostess & The Diva, a fun interruption from oversized canine visitors during the “Who Let The Dogs Out” number. There is also a pyjama contest with prizes for best dressed.
PJ Party Rules
- Grab a drink of your choice & kick back – you’re officially voyaging!
- Dancing is welcome – telling others not to? Not cool.
- Expect nothing, sing along to everything!
- Special treats await you (if you’re still awake, of course).
- Whatever you do: Don’t feed the dogs!
And don’t forget: Sailors just wanna have fun!
PJ Party Drinks
The full set of menus from either The Athletic Club Bar or The Manor will be available with an additional set of PJ party exclusive cocktails on offer.
