LONDON-Thursday 23 May 2019 [ AETOS Wire ]
(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Today, Virgin Voyages announces a series of exciting updates for its irresistible 2020 sailings.
Expanded Partnership with Mark Ronson
With
a heritage deeply rooted in music, Virgin Voyages announced an expanded
partnership with Academy, Grammy and Golden Globe-winning artist and
producer Mark Ronson. Ronson will join the company’s Creative Collective,
a group of world-class tastemakers, artists and designers who are
collaborating with Virgin Voyages to bring epic Sailor experiences to
sea. In his role as the company’s “Minister of Music,” Ronson will be
creating a series of pre-voyage and onboard playlists for Sailors, as
well as curating the vinyl record selection in the RockStar Suites and
the ship’s vinyl and music shop – Voyage Vinyl. What’s more, Ronson will
be working with Virgin Voyages’ music teams, defining the brand's sound
at sea as well as at The Beach Club in Bimini, Bahamas -- a private and
luxurious beach club that is exclusively for Virgin Voyages Sailors
while Scarlet Lady is on island.
As a part of Virgin Voyages’ On Deck residency
program, Ronson has committed to four performances at The Beach Club at
Bimini in 2020. Ronson’s July 9 poolside performance can only be
experienced by those who book the July 5, 2020 Mayan Sol sailing
featuring stops in Costa Maya, Mexico and Bimini, Bahamas.
“I’m thrilled to be part of the Virgin Voyages’ Creative Collective, helping
lead the charge in music. Sir Richard Branson and the Virgin brand were
legendary game-changers in the music industry and it's a thrill to join
them as they bring that same spirit to sea travel,” Ronson said.
“We
see music as an essential element to a holiday, not just for parties
but also as the soundtrack to laughter, relaxation and much more,” said
Tom McAlpin, president and CEO for Virgin Voyages. “It’s an honour to
have an outstanding artist like Mark Ronson helping us develop our
Sailor experience, alongside an exciting lineup of DJ’s joining our On Deck residency program.”
Diplo Joins On Deck Residency Program
Continuing the expansion of its On Deck residency
program, Virgin Voyages also announced that legendary DJ and record
producer, Diplo, will perform at the Beach Club in 2020.
Virgin
Voyages will carefully curate the mood at The Beach Club so that
Sailors have opportunities to experience moments of relaxation and
serenity as well as high-energy excitement. Mornings at the private club
will begin with yoga and meditation, with the energy gradually
amplified as the day progresses, reaching a crescendo of action in the
afternoon where DJ-led pool and floatilla parties will be the centre of
the club. The day will cascade into night with a calming fire ritual
where Sailors will enjoy acoustic tunes over an open bonfire.
Scarlet Night- A Party to Remember
Scarlet
Night is another occasion set to prove a highlight for Sailors, as
Virgin Voyages reveals details of one its signature onboard parties,
which will take Sailors on a journey around Scarlet Lady. Conceived,
designed and produced by the award-winning producer behind Sleep No
More, Queen of the Night, and The Donkey Show, Randy Weiner, Scarlet
Night is a glamorous occasion of awe and mystique that pushes the
boundaries of entertainment. Groundbreaking music will set the mood, as
Sailors dance the night away at this out of this world experience,
complete with art installations and performances throughout the ship as
the night progresses. There will also be an after party created by
Brooklyn, New York’s House of Yes, recently named the number two Best
Thing To Do in the World by Time Out, and known for their
theater-infused nightclub where a fabulous outfit is a must and guests
expect the unexpected, including circus spectacles, immersive cinema,
cabaret performances and beyond.
Scarlet Night comes to London
Londoners will experience a taste of Scarlet Night on Tuesday 21st May,
as the event comes from sea to land for one night only. The event will
bring to life the energy of Scarlet Night with extraordinary music and
performances along with a featured guest performance from Mark Ronson.
The special event is set to be attended by VIP’s and celebrities
including Geri Horner, Holly Branson and more.
Ladyship Touring UK Waters
There’s
good news for budding travel advisors, whom the company affectionately
refers to as First Mates – the Scarlet Lady, glamorously designed cabins
and boasting over 20+ eateries will be stopping in Dover and Liverpool
in late February opening its doors to First Mates, media and VIP’s,
hosting a number of exclusive events before making her way across the
