Love & Harmony Cruise will celebrate 10 years of music, culture, community and unforgettable Caribbean experiences at sea when the acclaimed music cruise returns May 6-11, 2027, for a special Mother’s Day weekend anniversary sailing aboard the Norwegian Jewel.
Marking a decade since Love & Harmony first welcomed music lovers aboard, the six- day, five-night voyage will sail round trip from Miami, with stops in Montego Bay, Jamaica, and Nassau, Bahamas. The anniversary edition expands on the cruise’s signature formula of world-class Caribbean entertainment, themed parties, comedy, culinary experiences and destination events, this time with a special emphasis on bringing generations of families together for Mother’s Day.

The cruise has unveiled the first wave of its 10th anniversary entertainment lineup, led by reggae icon and Love & Harmony captain Beres Hammond, alongside Sanchez, D’Yani, Aidonia, Kevin Downswell and I-Wayne, with additional artists to be announced.
“Ten years is an incredible milestone for Love & Harmony, but what makes this anniversary even more meaningful is that we are sailing over Mother’s Day weekend,” Director of Marketing & Public Relations Ronnie Tomlinson said. “Love & Harmony Cruise has always felt like a family reunion at sea. We have guests who return year after year, and this time we want them to bring their mothers, children and loved ones and celebrate together. This is more than a cruise, it is six days of Caribbean culture, music, food, laughter and memories.”
COMEDY RETURNS WITH TRIXX AND WHITE YARDIE
Music is only part of the Love & Harmony experience.
The cruise’s popular comedy show will return for the anniversary sailing with Trixx, returning by popular demand following his appearance on the 2026 voyage, and White Yardie, who will make his Love & Harmony Cruise debut, bringing his Jamaican British perspective and comedy from the U.K. to the Caribbean experience at sea.
Comedy has become an established part of the cruise’s programming alongside concerts and themed events. The 2026 sailing featured Trixx and Fancy Cat, while previous Love & Harmony voyages have also incorporated comedy into their multi-day entertainment schedule.
A MOTHER’S DAY CELEBRATION FOR THE ENTIRE FAMILY
In recognition of the Mother’s Day weekend sailing, Love & Harmony is encouraging guests to make the anniversary voyage a multigenerational getaway.
Children ages 12 and younger sail free and pay only applicable taxes and fees, giving mothers, grandmothers and families an opportunity to experience the milestone vacation together. Cabin rates are based on a double-occupancy minimum, and payment plans are available.
The family focus reflects what has become an important part of the Love & Harmony experience: creating an environment where multiple generations of Caribbean music lovers can vacation and celebrate together. Past coverage of the cruise has highlighted its ability to bring together families and guests spanning generations through a shared connection to Caribbean music and culture.
FROM CARIBBEAN CUISINE TO PARTIES AT SEA
Throughout the voyage, guests will move between live concerts, themed parties, DJ experiences, comedy, cultural programming, Karaoke and activities designed to turn the ship into a traveling Caribbean celebration.
Food will also remain a central part of the experience. Guests can enjoy Caribbean and American breakfast, lunch and dinner, alongside the Norwegian Jewel’s fine and casual dining options. Previous Love & Harmony sailings have placed an emphasis on authentic Jamaican and Caribbean flavors, with dishes including oxtail, ackee and saltfish, jerk chicken, curry goat and other island favorites complementing the entertainment at sea.
Beyond concerts, the Love & Harmony experience has become known for keeping guests engaged throughout the voyage with themed parties, poolside events, games, concerts, Captain’s Dinner and other programming. Previous editions have featured more than 30 onboard events, reinforcing the cruise’s positioning as an immersive Caribbean cultural vacation rather than simply a series of concerts on a ship.
LOVE & HARMONY TAKES OVER MONTEGO BAY
One of the signature moments of the 10th anniversary voyage will come when the Norwegian Jewel docks in Montego Bay, Jamaica, on Saturday, May 8.
Love & Harmony will take the celebration from sea to shore for a special beach experience at Tropical Bliss Beach, hosted by dancehall star Aidonia.
The destination event will give Harmonizers an opportunity to step off the ship and experience Jamaica through music, beach culture, entertainment and the unmistakable energy of Montego Bay before continuing the anniversary voyage.
The ship is scheduled to be in Montego Bay from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., creating a full day in Jamaica before guests return aboard.
THE 10TH ANNIVERSARY ITINERARY
The Love & Harmony Cruise departs Miami on Thursday, May 6, 2027, followed by a day at sea on May 7. Guests arrive in Montego Bay, Jamaica on May 8, spend Mother’s Day, Sunday, May 9, at sea, visit Nassau, Bahamas on Monday, May 10, and return to Miami on Tuesday, May 11.
The Mother’s Day sea day will give families the opportunity to celebrate together without rushing to a port, surrounded instead by music, dining, entertainment and the Love & Harmony family.
After 10 years, that sense of family remains at the heart of the brand. Past guests and artists have described the voyage as a reunion of friends, a cultural bridge and a place where Caribbean music creates connections among people from around the world.
With additional artists, DJs, special events and anniversary experiences still to be announced, the 2027 voyage is being positioned as a celebration not only of where Love & Harmony has been, but of the community that has helped carry the cruise through its first decade.
