Christmas Cruises in Sydney aboard this glamorous paddlewheeler are famous for the lovely mix of cruising, dining and live entertainment on Sydney Harbour. Now with stunning offers for groups of 6 or more, there's no better time to lock in your end-of-year celebration!
With its old-world charm and festive ambience, the Showboat sets the stage for the ultimate Christmas party — perfect for groups, office celebrations and team get-togethers. The Showboat Xmas party cruises run from end-November to mid-December—so don’t miss your chance to celebrate on this iconic paddlewheeler with live cabaret, dinner and a few festive add ons!
Office organisers love our pre-packaged cruises because they negate the stress of juggling venues, entertainment and catering. On the Showboat, everything’s sorted: a delicious three-course dinner, reserved seating and our iconic ‘Voyage of Love’ cabaret show that brings the house down every time. The unlimited beers, wines and soft drinks keep the good vibes going. Plus, every Christmas cruise booking includes complimentary bonbons. If your group number is less than six, or if you’d rather prefer a celebration without drinks, there’s also a package for that!
We take great pride in staging the best cabaret in town, and you can experience it in all its glory on our Christmas party cruises! Expect energetic dancers, vibrant costumes, mesmerising choreography, powerhouse vocals and infectious tunes that capture the spirit of love in all its colourful forms. From the opening act to the final bow, this fantastic show will have your entire group floored!
What's more…the dining experience on board rivals that of any top-tier restaurant, with one unforgettable difference – the views are constantly changing! As you enjoy your meal, you’ll glide past Sydney’s most iconic attractions, from the Opera House and Harbour Bridge to Luna Park, all beautifully illuminated against the night sky.
Here’s what one happy guest had to say: “We had a great night, the show was spectacular, the service crew was attentive and good service. Most of my colleagues are first-timers and I'm proud that they complimented me for choosing the best one. Really awesome entertainment. More power, guys!”
Departing from the King Street Wharf in Darling Harbour, the Showboat sure does tick all the boxes for an unforgettable Christmas party in Sydney. It’s the kind of night your team will talk about well into the New Year!
