Following the hugely successful reception on MSC World America sailing from Miami in the US and MSC Virtuosa sailing from Southampton in the UK, passengers will have the opportunity to experience the popular live-to-film concert in the Southern Caribbean sun whilst voyaging to exotic destinations such as Barbados, Saint Lucia, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, and the British Virgin Islands from the ship's embarkation port in Fort-de-France in Martinique.
The spectacular 90-minute live-to-film concert brings Lionsgate's beloved 1987 film to life with a talented live band alongside sensational singers and dancers – performing in sync with the movie that starred Jennifer Grey and Patrick Swayze.
Starting on 6 December 2025, guests aboard MSC Virtuosa will have several chances to catch the live-to-film concert throughout their cruise, including matinee showings on sea days, allowing plenty of opportunities to enjoy the one-of-a-kind experience at sea.
Steve Leatham, Vice President of Entertainment at MSC Cruises, said: "Providing world-class entertainment is a fundamental part of MSC Cruises’ guest experience, so we are thrilled to bring Dirty Dancing: In Concert to our guests sailing onboard MSC Virtuosa in the Southern Caribbean this winter season.
"This unique experience has had a strong reception following its launch aboard MSC World America and MSC Virtuosa, and expanding the concert to even more sailings allows us to continue to provide our guests with unparalleled entertainment options that appeal to all ages and tastes to ensure an unforgettable cruise experience."
As well as Dirty Dancing: In Concert, MSC Virtuosa will include lots of captivating entertainment options for passengers this winter, including:
Hall of Fame – A dynamic live concert celebrating pop music legends, created by the renowned team at Only Child Productions (known for work with Kylie Minogue, Netflix and Vogue).
Street Theatre – Surprise pop-up performances by world-class entertainers across the ship, from the pool deck to the promenade.
Family Fun and LEGO Experiences – Including the LEGO Family Game Show and LEGO Parade, alongside tech-driven games, parties and quizzes.
