Norwegian Luna Sets Sail with Shows That Glow, Fly & Rock the Night Away
Elton John Tribute, Cirque-Style Sci-Fi & All-New Parties Heat Up the Seas
If you’re the kind of cruiser who loves a good show with your sea breeze, Norwegian Cruise Line just dropped a lineup that’s practically begging for a standing ovation. Norwegian Luna, launching in March 2026, is gearing up for its debut with a stacked slate of new productions, immersive parties and family-friendly fun, and let’s just say, it’s giving headline energy from bow to stern.
First up is “Rocket Man: A Celebration of Elton John™,” a glittering tribute packed with the hits everyone knows by heart. Think concert-style staging, bold choreography, iconic imagery and enough costume sparkle to make the ocean jealous. With classics like “Tiny Dancer,” “Bennie and the Jets” and “Rocket Man” lighting up the theater, this one’s shaping up to be the kind of show that gets people humming as they walk back to their cabins.
But NCL didn’t stop there. The brand is also unveiling “HIKO: Innovation Meets Wonder™,” a futuristic knockout blending mixed reality visuals, sci-fi flair and dramatic gymnastics. Designed to echo Norwegian Luna’s celestial theme, this production creates its own little universe, one moment high-tech spectacle, the next breathtaking Cirque artistry.

Families are getting a serious upgrade, too. “Sea of Discovery! An Under-the-Sea Festival™” invites children into a glowing underwater world filled with games, imagination and a whimsical storyline. It’s interactive, colorful and crafted to be one of those experiences little cruisers talk about long after the ship docks.
And for the grown-ups? Norwegian Luna is turning up the volume. “LunaTique™,” a bold, adults-only late-night show, transforms classic circus characters into edgy nightlife icons, neon vibes, signature cocktails and all. Meanwhile, Syd Norman’s Pour House is back with a brand-new tribute to the Eagles™, plus throwback ‘90s sets and live band karaoke for anyone feeling brave.
Of course, NCL knows how to throw a deck party, and the ship’s rolling out not one but two fresh takes on nighttime fun. Island Nights™ brings breezy, tropical energy to the pool deck, while Latin LIVE!™ pumps up the tempo with percussion, powerhouse vocals and dance performances that keep the party going into the night.
With Norwegian Luna sailing seven-day Caribbean itineraries in 2026, and later offering Bermuda adventures from New York, guests will have plenty of chances to experience the new shows for themselves. Plus, with Great Stirrup Cay gearing up for major additions like a massive waterpark and swim-up bars, the fun doesn’t end when you step off the ship.
NCL is clearly on a mission to make entertainment a showstopper at sea, and Norwegian Luna is leading the charge. If you’re ready for a cruise that delivers big music, big visuals and big memories, this ship is about to become your new favorite stage.
