Crow’s Nest becomes a disco (dance club) at night, with live DJ music and dance contests. During the ship's last refurbishment, the Crow’s Nest bar lounge was renamed "Explorations Central" and its interior was redesigned. The new venue's programming additionally features a multimedia series of interactive videos and guides related to the visited destinations part of MS Veendam's itinerary program.
