The 12th annual Country Music Cruise has made history, selling out in just four days after tickets went on sale. Scheduled to set sail from January 25 to February 1, 2026, aboard Holland America’s luxurious m/s Eurodam, the cruise promises an unforgettable experience for country music fans. The lineup includes some of the genre’s biggest names, such as Josh Turner, Randy Owen, Patty Loveless, Neal McCoy, and Shenandoah. They will headline over 100 performances during the seven-day voyage.
Joining the star-studded roster are Jimmy Fortune, Moe Bandy, Wade Hayes, T. Graham Brown, The Malpass Brothers, Linda Davis, David Frizzell, Chuck Mead, Sister Sadie, and 50 Shades of Hay, with additional artists to be announced soon. Departing from Ft. Lauderdale, the cruise will make stops in Grand Turk and St. Thomas, offering guests a mix of tropical destinations and world-class entertainment.
A standout feature of the 2026 cruise is the return of the beloved Grand Ole Opry at Sea. Nan Kelley, a popular TV host, will be onboard to host artist interviews, cooking demonstrations, and special events. Fans can also anticipate the All-Star Jam, a unique performance where country music’s finest come together for an unforgettable collaboration.
In addition to the music, guests will have exclusive opportunities to interact with their favorite artists through meet-and-greets, social gatherings, and interactive activities. The cruise will also offer a variety of entertainment options, including a cornhole tournament, Gospel Hour, line dancing, themed parties, and gourmet dining across eight onboard venues.
StarVista Live and The Country Music Cruise continue their commitment to giving back, supporting the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum. During last month’s cruise, two Gibson guitars were auctioned, raising $90,000 to help preserve and share country music’s rich heritage with fans around the world.
The all-inclusive fares for the 2026 Country Music Cruise cover concerts, daily activities, fine dining, and more, making it the ultimate getaway for country music enthusiasts. With its record-breaking sellout and unparalleled entertainment, this cruise is set to be the highlight of 2026 for fans of the genre.
