The popular rock cruise ShipRocked returns in 2026 for another epic journey, and this time, it’s bringing a god-sized lineup along for the ride. Departing January 25 from Miami aboard the Carnival Horizon, the six-night cruise will make stops in Half Moon Cay, Celebration Key, and Nassau before returning January 31. Themed around Greek mythology, ShipRocked 2026 invites fans to “be your own god” while rocking out with over 25 bands across multiple stages on sea and shore.
Lineup Highlights
Halestorm will kick things off with a special pre-cruise performance in Nassau, setting the tone for a stacked bill of heavy hitters. Motionless in White, Knocked Loose, Wage War, AWOLNATION, Suicidal Tendencies, Avatar, Starset, Sleep Theory, From Ashes To New, and Kittie are just some of the major names confirmed.
ShipRocked 2026 also shines a light on rising and underground acts, including ‘68, Archetypes Collide, aurorawave, The Barbarians of California, Dead Poet Society, DeathByRomy, Dinosaur Pile-Up, The Funeral Portrait, Holy Wars, House Of Protection, Lowlives, Not Enough Space, Shepherd’s Reign, UnityTX, and Zero 9:36. Fan-favorite supergroup The Stowaways will also return with an all-star lineup and surprise guests.
More Than Just Music
Beyond the concerts, ShipRocked is known for its immersive fan experience. Expect themed costume nights, artist-hosted activities, late-night karaoke, dodgeball tournaments, and sunrise yoga. The cruise is also home to the annual "ShipRocked Cancer Sucks!" charity auction, which has raised over $1 million for medical research since its inception.
