Boots on the Water Sails February 2025

Sixthman and Vibee have partnered to bring to life Boots on the Water, a 5-day country cruise aboard the Norwegian Gem. The festival will take place February 8-13, 2025 and sail from Miami, FL to Nassau and Great Stirrup Cay, Bahamas. Public on-sale begins April 5th at 2PM EST. Guests who book before April 7th will save $100 off their cabin and receive a $50 shore excursion credit per room. 

Boots on the Water will feature performances from some of the biggest country stars from the 90s and 2000s, unique collaborations between artists and a variety of fan experiences you can’t find elsewhere. There will be a cruise kickoff tailgate party, whiskey tastings, panel discussions with industry pros, acoustic mornings, line dancing, live band karaoke, a belly flop contest with Jo Dee Messina and much more.

“Fun, sun, and boot scootin’ on the pool deck while island hopping through the Caribbean immersed in all things country music, now that sounds like a vacation,” said Jeff Cuellar, Sixthman CEO.
