AQUAFEST EVENTS

This includes our annual Halloween cruise program. We are famous for this event which caters up to 400 guests in a group environment on a mixed clientele ship. Aquafest Events creates a vibrant GLBT microcosm at sea in the midst of regular cruise ship clientele. We are the BEST affordable option to a full-ship GLBT event! We are also constantly asked, "How can you provide such a large scale event in a mixed environment?" The answer: Meticulous attention to detail and keeping all major Aquafest events PRIVATE for our Aquafest guests. We work hard to provide our guests a fantastic onboard program. Keeping the parties private allows us to reserve a "safe" space needed for exclusive discos, GLBT theme parties and costume balls for adults. Also, the phenomenal support we've received from over 7,000 guests sailing on 23 successful cruises over the past 8 years allows Aquafest to look forward to an exciting future of producing more events for YOU!

EXCLUSIVE TOUR EVENT

Is Aquafest's newest offering to give our GLBT travelers a chance to take a tour with us to exotic destinations around the World in a private tour charter. These are more intimate offerings and will never cater to more than 50 travelers in a group. We will visit places like China, Egypt, and coming in 2011-India.

HOSTED GROUP CRUISE

This is a chance to travel in a smaller, group atmosphere with other GLBT travelers in a hosted setting by Aquafest staff. This unique opportunity could be a President's Cruise hosted by Aquafest's own Tom Baker to an exciting destination like Europe or some other fantastic place. While these groups are not a full scale event like Halloween, they provide a chance for fellow travelers to enjoy many group socializing opportunities, cocktail parties, optional group excursions ashore, dining, and more.
