Charge For Shows On Star

[mommacl]

:confused: Is there a charge for the show? If so which ones?

[IWORK2CRUISE]

While I have not actually sailed on the Star I have never paid for show on any ship.

[cantwaitt]

So far, there is no charge for any shows.

 

I give it two years, max.

[mommacl]

I didn't think so, but I was reading a thread where this poster was going on & on about being charged for everything and he mentioned the shows.

NCL site still claims that onboard entertainment (except casinos) are included in the fare. :D

 

Here is what it states:

 

What does my cruise fare include?

Your cruise fare entitles you to accommodations, meals and entertainment aboard ship. Certain specialty restaurants are available with either nominal cover charges or fixed price menus and à la carte pricing in addition to the standard dining program. Items of a personal nature are not included, such as alcoholic beverages and soft drinks, spa treatments, indoor pool relaxation areas, certain specialty exercise classes, laundry, photographs, casino, ship-to-shore phone, email, Internet, fax and Shore Excursions (including all Dive In" programs). Government taxes and fees are also not included.

 

So, there should not be a charge for shows.

We were on the Star in May...and there was no charge for the shows.

one of the ships...i think it was doing hawaii....had the "tony and tina wedding" show. it wasn't done as a showroom show, it was a special production with a fee...an audience involvement with dinner?

if there is a special guest performer...like wayne newton or such...they will have a fee.

but the normal NCL shows in the showroom, no charges

Toyz.. I never knew that NCL would have headliners in their shows. Is there a way to see who they are having on what cruises?

haven't heard of any since i have been hanging around...i guess for some "group" cruise they have them. my only group cruise didn't have any special entertainment.

there were some posts about the tickets for the dinner show of the "wedding", i think it was last summer people were talking about the costs of it?

now it they do mama mia, i may pay for that..

Wayne was probably just trying to find a way to take a free cruise!

 

Just kiddin!!!! haah :D

[crew mom]

Entertainment in the theater is free unless it is a headliner which does not happen very often anymore. Sometimes on a charter cruise but not often. DS worked with some big names on the Rosie Family cruises but even then the shows were free. So go and enjoy the shows!

I have been to several guest performer shows in the main showroom on RCCL and they have never charged a fee. Charo knocked my socks off with her acoutic guitar, for example. No charge to see her.

[Bennett'sCruise]

No charge for shows .. I'm not sure how this kind of thing gets started.

BTW: The *Tony & Tina Wedding* type of thing is done on lots of different cruiselines ... not just NCL. It's usually accompanied with dinner, which is a special fee.

They're still doing that - when Pride of Hawaii became Jade they continued "Tony and Tina's Wedding" with a charge (I think $25) including a pasta dinner.:rolleyes:

We saw Tina and Tony's Wedding on the Pride of America last fall. It was a very fun, interactive show. I think it cost $20 or $25 dollars.

Normal entertainment shows are not an extra cost, but an extra charge for things like Tony & Tina's Wedding, or a murdery mystery dinner, is customary onboard ships for many lines. Friends of ours did the murder mystery dinner thing on RCI a few months ago, and it had a surcharge (they said it was great, and worth the money, by the way).

 

The OP should expect there to be options for onboard entertainment available at no charge, and in addition that possibly there will be 1-2 OPTIONAL evening activities which have a surcharge. Just inform yourself of which is which and you should be fine.

We did the Murder Mystery Dinner on the NCL Star in May, and there was no extra charge for it. If I remember correctly, dinner was in the Aqua dining room.

Even better for the OP, then! :)
