From a recent sea day when they raised the projection screen and sun shade in Two70.  I missed the projection screen going up but here is the sun shade going up in double time.
 

 

 

 

Wow, its quite big there, however, I dont see many people there hanging around. Are they just testing it out? Also, I doubt you can have a full meal sitting by that small table over there. Only drinks and snacks at maximum. I wonder if it was free of charge

Where’s a hurricane to cause a diversion when you need one?   I could stay on for a few days more.  🤣

 

OK...you stay on...just let me on tomorrow as well.  😉

During the day the venue is open for the most part.  During the top tier event they had the Vistarama screens lowered and displayed things like the virtual fleet. After that they opened the screens for the wake views.  
 

Cafe270 is open for breakfast and lunch with grab and go items.  It’s not a WJ buffet or full service dining venue.  Typically Cafe270 closes before dinner.  In the evenings Two70 is an entertainment venue.

In lieu of the backstage tours normally offered pre-pandemic they are offering this event.  The backstage tours were only open to higher levels of the C&A program so accordingly this replacement event is Diamond and higher. 
 

Select cast and backstage crew talk about their careers and guests can ask questions.

Captain's Corner - Behind the Scenes 

 

Had to compress it down to 720p to make it "Voomable".

From the entertainment up close and personal event.  
 

The lead musical coordinator over all music on board, a dancer from the main theater, back stage production manager and the lead character from The Book

 

 

Each person introduced themselves and talked their role and prior experience on other ships.  Many have been on since April in Cyprus.  Some cast are nearing their contract end.  
 

They played a video that highlighted the Miami entertainment studios that are closed right now.  
 

 

Just a lot of good information about how things work on board, what it’s been like for the cast and crew through the restart and other information about Royal Caribbean Entertainment.

So basically it's like the old Q &A  with the captain but combined.

The Captain's Corner and the C&A Entertainment event are two separate events with a gap of ~ 30 minutes between them.

Virtual fireworks in Two70° to cap off the night.

 

 

 

Wow! Can you tell me more about this? Was it a show or a random display? I’m sailing the Odyssey on 2/20 and don’t want to miss this. Thanks

Twangster,

 

Once again, thank you for taking us on such an awesome photo and video filled cruise.  You've given us alot of great insight and things to make sure we make the most out of our upcoming sailing.

 

Have a great next (how many more did you book these last 2 weeks?) cruise.

Hope to sail with you again some day

Thank you for your response and for your review. Hope you had a wonderful time. I’m trying to decide between the Odyssey and the Edge right now. I love fireworks and this may be a swaying point!
