SUGGESTED QUOTE “I am excited and honored to be back on The Country Music Cruise,” says Larry Gatlin of The Gatlin Brothers, “especially on this 5th anniversary journey. I was on the first one back in 2014, so it means a lot to me to be asked to help celebrate with the guests and the team onboard. The whole cruise – from the concerts to the country-filled events to all of the time the artists spend with the fans – is like nothing else out there.”
SUGGESTED QUOTE “They can’t keep me off that ship,” jokes XXX of Alabama. “It’s as if someone took the greatest parties, concerts and fans and put them all in one place. You can’t even imagine how much fun and great music you can fit into a week until you’ve gone on The Country Music Cruise.”
The Country Music Cruise has sold out every year since its launch in 2014. Fans quickly embraced the experience – a combination of the very best in Country Music and the vacation of a lifetime – with more than 50 live performances by the biggest names in Country Music, select artists making special appearances at the Gospel Hour, during songwriter workshops, guitar playing seminars, panel discussions, Q&A events, cooking exhibitions, autograph sessions, hilarious live game shows, a number of incredible jam sessions and all kinds of interactive artist events. Guests have unprecedented opportunities to meet and mingle with the stars aboard what has been called the ultimate country music party. Plus the 2018 Country Music Cruise will feature the return of the Grand Ole Opry at Sea: a very special performance event featuring cruise artists taking the stage together for an evening of stories and songs celebrating country music’s most famous show.
