A music cruise is a type of cruise ship tourism whose purpose centers around a musician, band, or musical lineup with performances by the act or acts and interaction between the cruise-goers and the stars. Music cruises can be thematic in genre, such as jazz, blues, rock, a musical era such as the 1980s, country, and others, or may center around a particular musician, band or related bands.[1] Music cruises feature musical performances by the act or acts, and involve social activities between fans and cruise performers such as Meet and Greets, question and answer sessions, and parties.[2]
Music cruises have grown in popularity significantly in the United States since the 1990s, to the point of popular music festivals such as Coachella[3][4] are offering at-sea versions of their concert series and band such as KISS, Weezer, Motörhead, and solo acts like Kid Rock have done music cruises.[1][2][5] While music cruises usually have an older demographic, there are still concerns about alcohol-related incidents taking place on board.[2][5]
Examples of music cruises include Holy Ship! – held annually since 2012 – and Jam Cruise – held fourteen times since 2004 – both of which sail out of PortMiami.
