Departing Auckland on 11 November, 2022, P&O Cruises Australia has launched New Zealand’s inaugural Country Cruise, featuring the latest and greatest country music stars onboard Pacific Explorer. The debut New Zealand Country Cruise follows P&O’s highly successful inaugural Australian Country Cruise, which sailed from Brisbane in late 2019.
P&O expects the cruise to be a popular addition to its New Zealand Short Break offerings, according to the cruise line’s Head of Entertainment Brett Annable.
“Country music is king for a lot of New Zealanders so we’re looking forward to creating a fantastic festival atmosphere onboard Pacific Explorer as we take this genre to sea.
“From morning to night, the New Zealand Country Cruise will offer a fabulous line-up of country music performers, with guests able to sit back and relax as they enjoy the music or get their boots on to dance the cruise away.”
Bookings for the inaugural New Zealand Country Cruise are now available. Fares start from NZ $449 per person for a quad-share cabin.
