Groove Cruise, the world’s largest floating music festival and Whet Travel’s flagship event, is gearing up for another unforgettable voyage in 2026. From January 22–26, music lovers will sail from Miami to Nassau, Bahamas aboard the majestic Wonder of the Seas – Royal Caribbean’s crown jewel and the largest cruise ship by staterooms. With 97% of staterooms already booked and prices set to rise on May 2, the race is on to join this one-of-a-kind experience that fuses luxury cruising with non-stop music and community.
The 2026 edition boasts a powerhouse lineup, led by Groove Cruise fan-favorite and rising star, John Summit. He’s joined by a genre-spanning cast of artists including tech house giant Cloonee, UK bass innovator Chris Lorenzo, DnB queen Blossom, funky duo The Sponges, melodic virtuoso Jason Ross, and club legend Green Velvet. Trance titan Markus Schulz, chart-topping Joel Corry, DJ Susan, Max Styler, and multifaceted UK vocalist Sarah De Warren round out a stacked bill of dance floor dominators.
Carving a name for themselves as a trailblazer in booking female talent, the 2026 lineup features a refreshingly strong roster of women – 3-5x more than the industry norm. Attendees can catch standout sets from Amy Wiles, Azzecca, Girl Math, Jackie Hollander, Lilly Palmer, ME N Ü, DREYA V, Sam Blacky, Alleykay, Ms. Behave, Tara Brooks, and many more. Not only are these artists featured, but they’re also prioritized on the biggest stages, giving them the spotlight they deserve.
Following years of building community, Groove Cruise is much more than just a festival; it’s a floating family reunion. Over 96 hours, friendships form, dancefloors bond strangers, and the vibe becomes something deeply personal. With 13 stages, over 100 DJs, eight unique neighborhoods, and more than 40 dining and bar venues, Groove Cruise 2026 isn’t just an event – the upcoming edition promises to be an experience you’ll carry with you long after the ship docks.
