It depends on the length of the cruise as to when it i held. On a seven day cruise I believe it is on Thursday. They will put an invitation in your cabin.

Sheryl,

If you went to the Captain's Welcome Aboard party on your first cruise, you have pretty much seen what the past guest party will be. Music. Cocktails and canapes. Gladhanding by officers and cruise staff, etc. Usually the CD or Captain will thank you for cruising with Carnival again and perhaps give you some "inside info" on new ships that are coming soon. They'll narrow down who has cruised the most times and recognize them. I think they have a drawing for a prize too.

that is correct you will recieve an invitation in your room for the past guest party, they have a litle dancing and live music free cocktails and finger foods mini pizza, mini hotdogs, shrimp puffs etc. and a prize drawing my son won on our cruise in Jan a dinner for 2 at Nick and Noras supper club worth 60.00

Oh and don't forget the past guest pin.
I personally show up at all the past guest parties, mainly for the free drinks, WOW i sound like such a lush.
