BRIT Award winner Ella Henderson kicked off the night on stage at The Manor – Valiant Lady’s onboard nightclub – with an exclusive performance of some of her top hits. She said: “I had the best night celebrating the launch of Valiant Lady and I am so glad I got to perform for Capital as part of it. The audience was mad and what a great experience to perform onboard an incredible ship for the first time. It’s definitely one I’ll remember.”
Grammy Award-winning DJ, Diplo, debuted new songs from his latest self-titled album, continuing his partnership with Virgin Voyages – he has previously performed at the Virgin Voyages Beach Club at Bimini. He said: “I loved being one of the first people to play the Valiant Lady in the UK. The Red Room is sick. Great system, wild crowd, I had a ton of fun.”
