Theater Show evening start times

[formula14]

Hi! At what time generally are the evening shows in the theater? We have the open dinning option & about to reserve our preffered dining times, but our last (Princess) cruise, we ended up missing most of the shows because we dinned a little late & got to the shows too late to be seated in the theater.

 

This time we want to make sure we take in a couple of shows during our 1st Celebrity cruise. Generally, do the shows start 10ish, 9ish? thanks!

We were on the Solstice in January, and IIRC most shows started at 7 and 9:30, but per other posts they can vary. I suggest you contact Celebrity directly to get a complete schedule for your particular cruise, then you can decide.

Good idea, thanks for the help!

All of the shows are timed around the "normal" early and late dining times. Generally shows for the early diners start around 9PM or a little before and shows for the late diners are split between a 7PM and 11PM starting time. These often vary a little bit, sometimes starting 15 minutes earlier or later.

We were recently on a 9 day cruise on the Mercury and had late dinner seating (8:30 p.m.) We had two formal nights, and the shows on those evenings were at 10:30. All other nights our shows were at 7 p.m.

Just got off Solstice shows were 7 and 9 except on formal nights when they were 8 and 11.

Just got off Solstice shows were 7 and 9 except on formal nights when they were 8 and 11.

 

So would that mean that 2nd dinner seating shows were first except for formal nights?
