Have been on 2 Halloween cruises before, once on Harmony in the caribbean. Lots of people in costume, lots of decorations, a dance party in the promenade, incl. balloon drop and a walk-through haunted house in Boleros. Lots of scary cakes and dessert in Windjammer, they all looked amazing.

Then, in 2019 we were on Spectrum out of Shanghai. Seeing that 80% of passengers were locals which disappeared from the public areas after dinner (no idea where they went) and the rest was mostly Americans and lots of them in costumes. There were some decorations on the Esplanade, also themed cakes in the Windjammer and a fun halloween dance party and costume competition in 270°, incl. a cool animated Halloween-themed backdrop projection.

On Oct. 30 we board Wonder of the Seas and look forward to the Halloween festivities as well and this time we will also bring costumes. I told my friend who join us that costumes are the mandatory dresscode on Oct. 31  

On my cruise this year, Halloween is on Formal Night, Tuesday, October 31.

Do we get into costume AFTER dressing up for dinner, or can we go into Formal Night in costume?

I'm thinking that I need to get into costume AFTER dinner because on Formal Night, formal pics are taken and it seems a pity to waste my nice formal outfit!!! But I'd like ideas from y'all.

Thanks!!!

WHOA! We're going the week BEFORE YOU!

I'm stuck, because I don't know what to dress for-Formal Night (which is what, usually the 2nd night at sea) and Halloween, which is the same night!

Keep in touch, I'll let you know of anything that comes up!

Anyone else going?!

I'm in a quandary re: Formal Night I believe is usually the second night of the cruise, but that's ALSO Halloween!!!

I think I'll do my own thing in the mirrored aerobics room with my phone music.
