About Groove Cruise

Groove Cruise isn’t just any music festival; it’s a life-changing adventure that blends the serenity of the open sea with the transformational power of music, community, and connection. When you embark on Groove Cruise, it feels like one big family reunion. Groove Cruise unites people worldwide, creating a second family affectionately known as the #GCFAM. The #GCFAM is connected by shared values, a love for music, and an inclusive spirit. This close-knit community fosters a sense of belonging, where captains form lifelong friendships and connections.

“We’ve had over 100 weddings and proposals onboard, and to be part of someone’s life moment like that is a testament to the community that has been formed over the last 20+ years. I get messages almost daily about how Groove Cruise has changed someone’s life, and it’s crazy and humbling even to think about it. As we navigate forward into the next 20 years, GC 2026 will not only be the largest and most innovative cruise experience in the world but also the most impactful and transformative.”  

-Jason Beukema, Chief Excitement Officer and Founder of Groove Cruise
