Neonyx Cruises Introduces Adults-Only Music Party Voyages
Greece's Seajets group is set to launch Neonyx Cruises, featuring the former Costa Magica, which Marios Iliopoulos acquired in 2023. Renamed the Goddess of the Night, this 3,470-passenger ship will offer short music festival and party cruises in the Aegean, exclusively for adults. The inaugural voyage is scheduled for July 15.
Neonyx Cruises is designed for couples, solo travelers, and groups of friends, promising nonstop electronic music, captivating shows, and a vibrant Mediterranean vacation experience.
The cruises will feature two itineraries. The three-day "Thrill Extravaganza" departs Piraeus on Fridays, while the four-day "Thrill Extravaganza Plus" leaves on Mondays. Both itineraries include stops at Mykonos, Santorini, and Çeşme (Turkey). Passengers can embark or disembark at Piraeus, Mykonos, or Çeşme, and the cruises can be combined for a seven-day trip.
Each cruise will host world-famous DJs performing from sunset to sunrise on a specially designed upper deck. The lineup includes artists such as Steve Aoki, Hardwell, Afrojack, Nicky Romero, and more, establishing the Goddess of the Night as a premier floating electronic and dance music festival.
In addition to the DJs, entertainment will include edgy live performances such as cabaret shows featuring singers, dancers, and acrobats. The ship will offer four restaurants, with the main buffet restaurant open until 4:30 in the morning for late-night dining.
The ship features 11 bars, and two beverage packages are available. The "Classic" package includes house wines by the glass, beer, aperitifs, mineral water, and coffee/tea for €75 per day, while the "Premium" package offers premium wines, all cocktails, premium spirits, liqueurs, and specialty coffees for €95 per day.
Amenities on the Goddess of the Night include a casino, wellness center with gym and spa, group exercise classes, and shops. Shore excursions will also be available for passengers.
