Norwegian Cruise Line Dress Code

Norwegian Cruise Line maintains a relaxed and flexible approach to onboard attire. Casual clothing is appropriate throughout most areas of the ship, and there are no mandatory formal nights.

Typical casual attire may include:

  • Dresses and skirts
  • Pants, capris, or jeans
  • Shorts
  • Blouses and casual tops
  • Khakis
  • T-shirts and polo shirts
  • Casual footwear

Guests who prefer to dress up may do so, particularly for dinner, photographs, special occasions, or Norwegian’s themed evening events.

Dining Attire

Norwegian asks guests to wear attire that is appropriate for the dining setting.

Shirts and footwear are required, clothing graphics should be respectful, and attire should provide appropriate coverage for a dining environment.

Swimwear should be reserved for pool areas, and extremely short shorts are not considered appropriate for dining venues.

Guests may choose more polished or smart-casual clothing when dining in upscale specialty restaurants, including dresses, skirts, slacks, jeans, collared shirts, button-down shirts, and similar attire.

Theme Nights and Parties

Norwegian does not require guests to participate in formal nights. However, guests may choose to dress up for special events or themed parties.

A white outfit is a popular option for Norwegian’s Glow Party and other themed evening events.

Policies and onboard dress guidelines may vary and are subject to change without prior notice.
