The Spiegel tent is advertised as the first big top at sea, and the large restaurant certainly has a circus look with its tent-like ceiling.

The Cirque Dreams and Dinner show in the 217-seat Spiegel Tent on the Norwegian Epic is non-stop entertainment for over two hours. The dinner menu is fixed, with salad, chicken and steak, and a chocolate dessert. The actors, singers, and acrobats keep the show moving, and I felt like the dinner was secondary to the show. I couldn't take my eyes off the entertainers long enough to enjoy the meal!
Seats are clustered at tables downstairs or upstairs.

Personally, although we sat downstairs, it looked like the seats along the rail upstairs provide the best view.

This is a fun show for all ages, with lots of comedy, fantastic costumes, and marvelous acrobatic and balancing acts.

In addition to the Cirque Dreams & Dinner show, the Spiegel Tent will be used once each cruise for "Presumed Murdered," a hilarious murder mystery lunch featuring The Second City and for "Breakfast with Nickelodeon", a Nickelodeon Character breakfast, which is offered three times per cruise at 8 a.m. The breakfast cost is $10 per child and $15 per adult.
