ShipRocked 2025 is stacked with heavy hitters and the floating music festival just added Jinjer, The Glorious Sons, DED and Rivals to the mix. The premier rock music festival cruise is pulling out all the stops for its 15th anniversary. Comedian Big Jay Oakerson returns next year alongside Mike Finoia and Tim Butterly. And per tradition, the festival has chosen a theme – Retro Paradise ’80s – so of course they needed to add a band to the lineup that can set the tone. Nashville 80s tribute band Rubiks Groove are up for the challenge. ShipRocked, which departs from Miami, FL and stops at St. Thomas and The Bahamas, will sail January 19-25, 2025.
ShipRocked is more than just a music vacation. For many, it’s a family reunion with forever friends made through the music they love. The floating festival brings its guests many memorable performances and unique collaborations, artist-run events and activities, theme nights and plenty of down time for fans and bands to relax in paradise.
