After several weeks of radio silence, your captain is finally speaking. Holy Ship! will taking place on a new cruise line and adopting a four-day format in 2017. For fans of the electronic music festival cruise, which is presented by HARD Events, The Bowery and Cloud 9 Adventures, this announcement comes as a huge relief, as many “shippers” speculated that the nautical rager might be taking a break following their contract completion with the MSC Divina. Such is not the case!
In fact, the cruise will live on as two sailings, taking place on a Norwegian Cruise Liner known as the Norwegian Epic (maybe the food will be better?). The ships are set to sail B2B, January 6-10th (Holy Ship! 8.0) and January 10-14th (Holy Ship! 9.0). I wonder how “Team Two Ships” is reacting to the new dates? Perhaps the biggest change up is the addition of an entire extra 24-hours of partying (pray for us), lending itself to three port cities (Port Canaveral, Great Stirrup Cay and Nassau), as well as, a full day at sea.
We’ll have to wait to see what the Holy Ship! 2017 lineup has to offer, but in the meantime, you better believe we’re scraping up that $250.00 to cover our pre-book deposits. Returning Shipfam will be able to claim their cabins April 19th & 20th, while any remaining cabins will be up for grabs for future Shipfam starting April 21st.
