Here's What To Expect

Sublime is hitting the high seas, and you’re invited! Get ready for four unforgettable days of music, mayhem, and nonstop good vibes alongside fellow Sublime fans from around the world. The Sublime Reef Madness Cruise sets sail November 15-19, 2026, departing from Miami and cruising to the stunning Great Stirrup Cay in the Bahamas.

This isn’t just a live-music cruise, it’s a full-on vacation. Aboard the Norwegian Jewel, you can unwind at the spa, indulge in incredible dining, soak up the sun poolside, and explore everything the ship has to offer between sets.

We’ll also drop anchor at Norwegian Cruise Line’s private paradise, Great Stirrup Cay. Picture miles of white-sand beaches, crystal-clear water, snorkeling adventures, hammock lounging, and a laid-back Beachside BBQ by the sea.

The Sublime Reef Madness Cruise is a one-of-a-kind experience you won’t find anywhere else. Don’t miss the boat; this is one adventure you’ll be talking about long after you’re back on land.
