ice show tickets

[kimmie32]

How quickly do we need to get our ice show tickets? When are they available? What nights are the shows - we are booked for late seating at dinner - when should we go to the show?

Thanks

Check the daily compass for info as to when to pick up the tickets and when the shows are. There will be 2 shows for each dinner seating. You'll pick up the tickets at the customer service desk.
If you're in a grand suite or higher or diamond members, you can get tickets from the Concierge.

They usually have a time on the first sea day when there is a table set up in front of Studio B for ticket distribution. This time will be listed in the compas. We had trouble getting tickets when we wanted on our VOS cruise because there was a large group that took 400 tickets at once. We had to skip dinner in the dining room so that we could go to the 7:00 show. Not a big deal because the menu that night was not very exciting. We enjoyed the show and then grabbed pizza and sandwiches in the Cafe Promenade for dinner. I hope this helps!

Thanks. From reading other posts, this seems to be THE show not to be missed.

Are there other shows that were just as well missed?

It depends on your taste and possibly your age. The production shows tend to have a variety of music that anyone can associate with. When the show is a stand alone singer they tend to cater to an older crowd. I've been on cruises where the headline act was a group or a singer from the 50's or 60's that younger people never heard of.

One thing I found is if you want a particular night better get there earlier than the time
posted in the Compass. Ours was at 4:30 and I got there at 4:25 and the line was way back and they had already given out the time I wanted. Be there at least 30 min. early. It only takes one person from your group or family to get them.

Does the purser have the ice tickets when we first board?? Thanks!

[ernie16]

The compass will list when you can pick up the FREE tickets, ours was done right in front of the ice Rink entrance. At first the HUGE line will scare you only because people are in line before reps start ticket gi9ve outs. Once they start it moves very very quickly. What ever the wait it was worth it as the show e saw was absolutely fantastic.

Can you go to more than one ice show?

[mommao]

we have 2 atrium rooms booked, per legality my husband and son in one room myself and daughter in another, do we both have to go to get tickets for each room or can i just go and get them?

[Diane&4girls]

You can go to as many shows as you please. In fact, tickets aren't required. I have yet to get a ticket to an ice show.

I asked that same question when I picked up tickets for my group. It is recommended that each guest goes to one show since there are limited seating and others might want to see it too. It's great, but once is enough for us. [img]http://messages.cruisecritic.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif[/img]

Have a great trip

Was on NOS April 3rd and tickets were required to get inside for the ice show. DH got them the day before quite easily. The house was packed and the show was excellent.

We just got off the Mariner yesterday - saw two shows, and if my daughter had her way, we would have seen all 5 shows! As late as Friday afternoon (the day of the last shows)they were still announcing they tickets remaining for that nights two shows. It is a wonderful show.
