Groove Cruise, the pioneering floating music festival from Whet Travel, has unveiled its full artist lineup for the 2026 edition — and with 97% of cabins already booked, fans will need to act fast. The four-night voyage sets sail from Miami to Nassau, Bahamas, aboard Royal Caribbean’s Wonder of the Seas from January 22 to 26, 2026.
Returning as headliner is fan favourite and house music heavyweight John Summit, leading a diverse and stacked roster of over 100 electronic acts. The lineup spans an eclectic range of genres, featuring names like Cloonee, Blossom, Chris Lorenzo, DJ Susan, Green Velvet, Jason Ross, Joel Corry, Markus Schulz, Max Styler, Sarah De Warren, and The Sponges, among many others.
Notably, Groove Cruise continues to push industry boundaries with its commitment to gender diversity. The 2026 edition boasts a female-forward bill that includes performances from Amy Wiles, Azzecca, Lilly Palmer, Jackie Hollander, Luci, DREYA V, Tara Brooks, Sam Blacky, Leanna Punks, Tyler Graves, and several others — a representation that exceeds industry averages by three to five times, according to the organizers.
Set aboard the Wonder of the Seas — currently the world’s largest cruise ship by staterooms — Groove Cruise 2026 promises a high-end festival experience at sea. The ship features 13 music stages spread across its eight distinct neighbourhoods, 96 hours of continuous music, and over 40 bars and restaurants, offering an immersive environment for both musical discovery and luxury escapism.
