Sports TVs in the Lido Lounge & Bar are large screens that broadcast live sports events, including major football matches such as Premier League games, as part of the entertainment offering for guests. The specific events to be shown are listed in the ship’s daily program delivered to all passenger cabins each evening. The TVs also display a range of other channels, keeping passengers up to date with news, sports and general TV programming during the day and evening while they are in the bar lounge overlooking the pool area.

Casino Corner (portside) is a small gaming area located on the port side within the Lido Lounge vicinity, fitted with two table games (Blackjack and Roulette) that passengers can play during the cruise.
