Sail with your favorite holiday movie stars: Hallmark Christmas cruise will return in 2025

If you missed out on Hallmark Channel’s first Christmas-themed cruises this year, you’ll have another chance to join.
The sailing, offered in partnership with Sixthman, will return in 2025. “Hallmark’s purpose is rooted in bringing joy to your world, so the overwhelming success of the inaugural, sold out 2024 cruises was more than worthy of an encore!” the operators said in a news release Thursday.
Passengers can sail alongside their favorite stars and spend four nights getting into the holiday spirit. Activities will include a tree lighting, cookie decorating, crafts, panels with actors and the premiere of a new Hallmark Channel movie in an onboard theater.
When is the Hallmark Christmas Cruise 2025?
The cruise will depart on Nov. 6, 2025, aboard the roughly 3,800-passenger Norwegian Joy.
Where will the cruise sail?
Guests will sail round-trip from Miami, with a stop in Cozumel, Mexico.
How much does the cruise cost?
The cruise currently starts at $1,370 per person based on double occupancy, according to its website. The fare includes many restaurants onboard, drinks like filtered water and regular coffee, onboard activities and more.
Travelers can sign up for presale through Dec. 1. Presale bookings will open at 10:15 a.m. ET on Dec. 3 and run through Dec. 9, excluding weekends. Reservations will open to the general public at 2 p.m. on Dec. 10.
Hallmark fans can also sign up online to be notified about talent announcements.
