Most major cities offer a week or two of celebratory events leading up to the main Gay Pride parade and festival, but Miami Beach features a post-Pride experience like none other: a week-long high-seas cruise.
Miami Beach Gay Pride 2012 is teaming up with Source Events for the third Miami Beach Pride Cruise. After spending Sunday, April 15 partying it up with fellow LGBTers on Ocean Drive, take to the ocean waves aboard the Norwegian Sky cruise ship. The trip is from Monday, April 16 through Friday, April 20, 2012—five days at sea that will not only continue your Pride experience but also allow you to “cruise for a cause,” as a portion of all tickets sold through Source Events will be donated back to Miami Beach Gay Pride.
“Miami Beach Pride has grown into the largest, single-day event of the year in Miami Beach,” says Babak Movahedi, president of Miami Beach Gay Pride’s Board of Directors. “The Pride Cruise represents an exciting continuation of the Pride festivities, extending the great feeling of Pride to a community at sea.”
The four-night/five-day voyage will bring cruisers to Grand Bahamas Island, Nassau and Great Stirrup Cay, Norwegian’s private island. And since you all love VIP treatment, Source Events is offering exclusive events and activities not offered to other passengers onboard Norwegian Sky if you book through them. This includes a souvenir Pride welcome bag, complimentary Pride happy hours, sail away tea dances, an LGBT movie screening, private themed parties throughout the cruise and a special gay beach party on Norwegian’s private island. The Norwegian Sky also features a choice of five restaurants, eight bars and lounges, a full-service spa and fitness center, two pools, five hot tubs, and many sports amenities. Nightlife includes the casino, theater, nightclub, a karaoke bar, and more.
Even better, the Pride Cruise prices are pretty great, beginning at $329 per person (based on double occupancy, plus taxes and fees). For reservations or more information, visit www.SourceEvents.com or call (888) SOURCE8.
