Vote #2 – The Gorn Experience
Voting will take place June 11 – June 17
Gorn’s Warp Party
See description
Brace yourself for a high-energy night where the galaxy’s most unlikely host takes control of the dance floor. Inspired by the legendary Gorn, this themed party invites guests to embrace bold, outrageous, and creature-inspired looks while dancing the night away at warp speed. Whether you arrive as a Gorn, an alien species, or something entirely your own creation, this is your chance to go big, go wild, and celebrate in true interstellar party fashion.
Gorn’s Pajama Party
See description
Whether you arrive for Star Trek: The Cruise via warp-speed travel from Cestus III or simply beamed to the terminal from nearby Starfleet Command, what could be better than a party in your most comfy bedtime attire? Join the Gorn in the Promenade dressed in your favorite Star Trek pajamas or as your favorite Star Trek character decked out in sleepwear for a stellar time. Spontaneous “Arena”-style pillow fight battles are optional!
Gorn’s Toga Party
See description
Our beloved mascot is no stranger to hosting out-of-this-world parties from formal nights to DJ sets and more, and this time he’s taking us to a Pollux IV style world for Gorn’s Toga Party! All species are invited, from Vulcan Zeus to Andorian Aphrodite or even Ferengi Apollo sporting a latinum laurel crown. Whether you want to make a custom federation style toga in science-officer blue or simply turn your sheets into chic, this party will please Gods and Mortals alike!
Vote #3 – The Multiverse Experience
Voting will take place June 18 – June 24
The Trekking Dead
See description
The world of Star Trek is filled with scary situations and horrifying aliens, and isn’t it time for the Red Shirts to rise from their graves for revenge?
From Borg assimilations to encounters with Species 8472, on this night we will celebrate the darker side of Star Trek with a Zombie Red Shirt pub crawl, Scare Zone on the Royal Promenade, and culminating with a party sure to wake the dead!
Salute To Sci-Fi
See description
This night will be a journey through the cosmos, exploring the worlds and characters of iconic science fiction movies and shows. You can stay within the Star Trek universe, choose another sci-fi favorite, or create your own mashup to create something unique!
Mirror Universe Night
See description
An alternate reality in which good is bad and bad is good. There are no ion storms to monkey with the transporters on our floating starship, but we may still find ourselves crossing over to the “other side.” Tonight we visit the darkest parallel universe, where the uniforms look different, as does the facial hair. It’s going to get weird, wild, and wicked, but hopefully, our crew will get us back to our universe without a visit to the Agony Booth.
Vote #4 – The Holodeck Experience
Voting will take place June 25 – July 1
Holo-Nights
See description
Step into the holodeck, where anything is possible and imagination knows no bounds. Whether you choose to explore distant worlds, revisit Earth’s past, or create a reality entirely your own, this is your chance to become anyone—or anything. From historical figures to sci-fi heroes and beyond, the holodeck is open. The only limit is your imagination as you bring your program to life for one unforgettable night.
The Adventure of Captain Proton
See description
While Captain Proton continues his endless battle against Dr. Chaotica’s Army of Evil, Star Trek: The Cruise will join the Protectors of Earth attempting to disable the Death Ray. Dress in your favorite retro-future cosplay, perhaps in staticky black-and-white, or as Queen Arachnia of the Spider People, or even Satan’s Robot! If you have trouble with Chaotica, or if you can’t get to the Death Ray, you can always uncork the pheromones.
Holodeck Malfunction Mashup
See description
When the holodeck is on the fritz, reality blurs, and genres collide. Picture medieval knights jousting alongside Kazon cavemen, while dinosaurs roam ancient Egyptian pyramids. Hear New Wave beats mingling with Blues riffs, as pirates duel with lightsabers. It’s a chaotic yet beautiful mess where anything goes, and every adventure intersects in the tangled web of a scrambled holodeck program.
We can’t wait to see what you choose for the Star Trek: The Cruise X Theme Night.
