The London Int'l Ska Festival Christmas Thames cruise

Our ever popular Christmas Thames cruise returns on Saturday 12th Dec'26, but this year, due to overwhelming demand, we have supersized! We are delighted to announce that our Christmas cruise this year will be on the most beautiful and unqiue vessel on the Thames - the Dixie Queen paddle steamer.

DJs will be Jerry Dammers (The Specials/2 Tone Records founder), Sean Flowerdew (Pama Int'l/London Int'l Ska Festival founder), Nanker P (Time Tunnel) and more tba.

With it's 600 capacity across it's gorgeous two floors, two bars and two outerdecks it really is something special.

This cruise sells out every year. So be sure to buy early!

Come sail the Thames, take in London famous sites, to the finest ska, rocksteady, reggae & 2 Tone sounds around. All onboard the official London Int'l Ska Festival Christmas cruise. Bringing you the best in events since 1988!
