Carnival Vista Entertainment Schedule: 6-Day Cruise
Carnival Vista packs a wide variety of entertainment into a six-day cruise, from Playlist Productions shows and comedy to deck parties, family activities, Dive-In Movies and late-night events.
This Carnival Vista Entertainment Spotlight provides a particularly useful overview because it highlights some of the major events taking place throughout the entire sailing rather than requiring passengers to look through each day’s schedule individually.
The six-day itinerary shown here departs from Port Canaveral and visits Celebration Key, RelaxAway, Half Moon Cay and Amber Cove, with two Fun Days at Sea. The entertainment schedule includes productions such as FLICK, America Rocks and Studio VIP, along with Punchliner Comedy Club performances, themed nightlife and movies.
Keep in mind that Carnival states directly on the Entertainment Spotlight that schedules are subject to change. Passengers should check the Carnival HUB app onboard for the latest times and details.

Studio VIP – Day 5
Each is scheduled for two performances, at 7:30 p.m. and 9:30 p.m. This gives passengers some flexibility when coordinating evening entertainment with dinner and other onboard activities.
Because show schedules can change between cruises, these times should be treated as an example from this specific sailing rather than a permanent Carnival Vista schedule.
