Devoted fans of the Hallmark Channel’s signature style of holiday movie-making have a new way to experience those magical moments: the network has announced a new, first-of-its-kind, Christmas-themed cruise that will set sail from Miami to the Bahamas from November 5-9, 2024.
Hallmark’s tried-and-true formula for spinning heartwarming holiday tales delivers feel-good fare each holiday season, and this cruise aims to warm the cockles at sea with all the Hallmark touches you’ve come to know and love. Hosted on the Norwegian Gem, the floating winter wonderland will include beloved Christmas traditions including cookie decorating, ugly sweater contests, wine tasting and Christmas carol karaoke. The cruise kicks off with a special tree lighting, and passengers can attend a premiere screening of the newest Hallmark Channel movie, Countdown to Christmas. The highlight, however, is sure to be the chance to mingle with yet-to-be-announced Hallmark holiday movie regulars who will be on board for photo ops and panel discussions.
“We hear time and time again that people want to immerse themselves in the world of Hallmark Channel Christmas movies and this venture is sure to bring our brand to life in a new, captivating way,” said Natalie Vandergast, Hallmark Media’s Vice President of Consumer Products, in a press release.
Fans can sign up for the cruise’s pre-sale until July 19, and booking officially opens to the general public on July 21 at 2pm ET. Find all the details at hallmarkchannelcruise.com.
