During the cruise, fans can mingle with the artists for scheduled photo opps, Q&A sessions, karaoke, the exclusive Monsters of Rock “So You Think You Can Shred” contest, the Bonzai Pipeline Surfing Competition, Cooking with Rock Stars hosted by Lisa Tirone of Chef it up!, celebrity beer tastings, Painting With Rock Stars, and private dinners with your favorite bands.
Other ship activities include boogie boarding or surfing the waves at in a surf simulator, a rock-climbing wall, hot tubs and pools, and on-ship spa. There are also virtual reality-enhanced bungee trampolines, water slides, laser tag, and escape rooms.
