Classic country music and some of its most distinctive voices will take center stage when the Grand Ole Opry sails the Caribbean with its Classic Country Cruise Feb. 8 – 14, 2009. Country Music Hall of Famer and Grand Ole Opry star Mel Tillis is set to entertain during the cruise alongside fellow Opry stars John Conlee and Jeannie Seely plus country favorites T.G. Sheppard and Mandy Barnett.
Classic country fans will experience private shows by the artists performing their own hits in addition to all-time country classics throughout the week. Additional musical fun onboard will include classic country karaoke with celebrity judges, screenings of classic country television performances, an exclusive cocktail party, and a classic country storytelling session in which the entertainers on board answer fan questions and share their favorite stories from their collective years in the music business. A full casino, deck activities, dancing, first-run movies, and gourmet dining also are included.
Departing from Ft. Lauderdale, Florida, passengers aboard Carnival’s Freedom will visit three ports of call: Key West, FL; Ocho Rios, Jamaica; and Grand Cayman.
