A champagne and cocktail bar stylishly designed; Bellini's specializes in strategizing, premium sparkling wines, prosecco, and Brillinat's handcrafted special Bellini cocktails. Location-wise, it has a view of the Piazza giving it a glamorous and peppy atmosphere, thus proving to be a just option for pre-dinner drinks or even a possible intimate nightcap. The typical Bellini menu includes versions of legendary cocktails such as Peach, Mango, and Raspberry Mai Tai.

Crooners Bar
Styled as Rat Pack-era lounges, Crooners is a cocktail bar that presents cocktail specialties straight out of the 1950s, such as the classic martini, handcrafted cocktails, and live piano music. The intimate nostalgic ambiance makes it a place of choice for those who adore timeless tunes along with a well-made drink. Signature drinks feature the Bond-style martini, Manhattan, and Old Fashioned with a little theater accompanying each drink. Live piano entertains viewers each evening, creating a warm yet animated stage. The bartenders are known for putting on a show often with guests watching the drink being made.

Wheelhouse Bar
It's called the Wheelhouse Bar. It is a classic British-style bar pub to visit for whiskey drinkers, craft beer drinkers, and those up for a good hearty pub lunch. It has that warm, inviting atmosphere reminiscent of a traditional London tavern. A curated selection of Scotch, Bourbon, and Irish whiskey for a refined drinking experience. Variety of craft beers and ciders with internationally and locally inspired brews. Live music, trivia nights, and pub quizzes create a vibrant social scene. The classic fish & chips, bangers & mash, and many more courses that make up comforting British fare make their way onto their pub menu.

Retreat Pool Bar
Located in The Sanctuary, this Retreat Pool Bar is a premium adults-only bar with a cocktail menu service and private cabana service. Ultimate relaxation is what this bar is designed for, offering top-shelf spirits, handcrafted cocktails, and relaxing mocktails. Private cabana service allows you to enjoy drinks in a serene, spa-like setting. Ideal escape from that crowded main pool area for a peaceful retreat.

Princess Theater
Princess Theater is the greatest place of entertainment in Royal Princess-it prepares stage for some of the most exotic Broadway-style productions and live performances, at sea. Every evening, guests can be part of a spectacle that includes some spectacular musical revues and acrobatic and comedy shows with some dazzling dance numbers. The comfortable seating and an atmosphere of total immersion make it a perfect place to enjoy a night of world-class entertainment.

Princess Live!
For all those who like interactivity in entertainment, there is Princess Live! This type of entertainment space would easily remind one of a television studio with live game shows, talk shows, and interactive trivia events. This makes it one of the most actively lively places on board. Audience-involved games with a twist, such as The Marriage Match Game Show or themed trivia competitions, but mostly just watching the action unfold. Aside from that, guest-special performers and comedians hot seat visits to deliver the unpredictable ever-changing line-up of entertainment.

Live Music and Pianists
The offer was music of all kinds: smooth and mellow yet classical string quartets in the Piazza; high-energy rock and pop bands in the lounges; something playing all the time all over the place. The Crooners Bar is the best place for those who hear real live piano because it offers requests for tunes and well-known classics, and plays deep into the night. Meanwhile, Wheelhouse Bar offers more relaxed pub-style, soft acoustic sets, and bluesy tunes.

Movies Under the Stars
It's one of the most signature entertainment segments aboard Royal Princess: Movies Under the Stars. Outdoor cinema by the pool-incredible big LED screen on which blockbuster movies and classics are shown, sometimes even live sporting events. Guests can lounge on a chaise with a blanket, enjoy complimentary popcorn, and enjoy it under the stars. This is one of the most romantic and unique experiences in cruising with Princess.

The Princess Casino
If a little excitement and risk are exactly what you want, then be certain to visit The Princess Casino. This Vegas-style casino will be perfectly outfitted and will hold a wide selection of all slot machines, poker tables, blackjack, and roulette tables, along with many other classics. There are games for every skill level from novice to expert-that is, whether you are an experienced gambler, or just want to amuse yourself by having fun. Along the way, the casino also organizes tournaments, lucky-draw events, and gaming lessons that can make this livelier and more exciting day and night.

Club 6 Nightclub
For all the dancing enthusiasts, Club 6 is the best dance hotspot on the ship. Club 6 is modern in design and has a great energy that comes with a live DJ on, spinning the latest hits and the big dance floor combined with an impressive array of signature cocktails. Whether you are celebrating some milestone or simply hanging out with other cruisers for a party night, Club 6 is the venue to enjoy the party.

Karaoke & Live Comedy
Royal Princess always throws karaoke nights that leave the guests faintly equating the British to political protest. Be it seasoned performers or those just wanting some fun, karaoke sessions on board are lively, entertaining, and open to all guests at the time. Stand-up comedy performances are live and mainly from much-celebrated comedians; the themes are a mixture of family-friendly and late-night adult comedy shows to entertain everyone.

Game Shows & Trivia Nights
Royal Princess takes it to the next level in audience participation with amazing game shows as well as fun trivia nights on board the cruise. Guests are invited to test their knowledge against some themed trivia challenges, including everything from movie trivia to music trivia, or even trivia surrounding the history of cruise ships themselves. Plus, for friendly competition-loving guests, there are also interactive games like Deal or No Deal, The Yes/No Game, and The Liars Club in which guests can win some outstanding prizes as well as bragging rights.

The Piazza & Street Performers
