Formal nights.... even in the Lido?

[Charlie2na]

We have been on 3 cruises prior to looking at the Carnival Legend. Can we get away without suits and gowns by dining in the Lido?

[*Mach*]

Formal nights have been renamed Elegant nights... The dress code has been relaxed by quite a bit:

Cruise Elegant Dining Dress Code: Gentlemen - Dress slacks, dress shirts. We also suggest a sport coat. If you wish to wear suits and ties or tuxedos, by all means we invite you to do so. Ladies - Cocktail dresses, pantsuits, elegant skirts and blouses; if you‘d like to show off your evening gowns, that's great too!

 

Not permitted in the dining room during the Cruise Elegant dinner for ladies and gentlemen: shorts, gym shorts, T-shirts, beach flip-flops, bathing suit attire, jeans, cut-off jeans, sleeveless shirts for men, sportswear, and baseball hats.

Yes you can.

Lido remains totally relaxed and informal.

 

If you don't want to do the dress-up thing for the dining rooms,

Lido is your option! ;)
