Explora Journeys has launched new entertainment programming aboard Explora I, which includes a series of evening performances, interactive activities and exclusive events.
A standout of the offerings is the “Digital Activities.” Utilizing QR codes throughout the ship, guests can engage in daily activities on their devices, including Explora Journeys trivia, crosswords and themed word searches, sudoku and chess. This technology also allows guests to make musical requests directly to the performers. By scanning a QR code in the Astern Lounge during late-night gigs, guests can view song lists, send requests, choose songs or even suggest new ones to the musicians.
Additionally, guests can enjoy spontaneous pop-up performances by the pool from musicians, performers and wellness teams. These experiences are complemented by beverages and snacks.
Explora Journeys’ lineup of entertainment includes more rituals, daytime sports, interactive events, and a new multi-day murder mystery game.
Live music options in the evening include relaxing Euro poolside vibes by DJs to pre-dinner piano music in the Lobby and Explora Lounges, to musician-vocalist combinations in the Journeys Lounge, and contemporary music with the acoustic loop pedal duo in the Astern Lounge.
Later in the evening, guests are invited to the Explora Music Series in the Journeys Lounge. Six new vocalists present a 14-night program without repeat performances, supported by guest acts and luminaries. Evening choices include main stage performances, intimate lobby bar sessions, lively nights in the Astern Lounge with interactivity and dancing, and late-night wellness events.
Throughout the journey, guests can delight in everything from DJ and saxophone sets to the “Songbook” series honoring artists like Billy Joel and Carole King. New experiences include “Voices of Vegas” featuring music from Sinatra to Adele and Motor City. This summer, a variety of visiting performers, luminaries and the newest lineup of Steinway Exclusive performers will ensure a fresh experience each evening.
Explora Journeys has welcomed new talent to their leadership team with the additions of Ray Carr, Michael Langley and Keri Noble as entertainment managers. Guests can anticipate seeing one of these managers leading the guest experience program on each journey this summer.
