2025 Soul Train Cruise
We are excited to share the current schedule for this year’s cruise! Please only use this as a guide. A daily program will be provided onboard for the latest updates.

Sched is scheduling software we use to provide a schedule to you in advance. You will not be able to log in to this site using your StarVista Live account information. As a reminder, Sched is not a tool to reserve seats or attendance in advance. Please note you cannot build your own schedule in the Sched app. We understand it is a functionality within the app, however this is not available for our event.

A Note Regarding Colored Shows: All non-colored shows are first come, first serve. At the time of booking, if you chose the early show and late dinner, you will be given a key card with a BLUE background. If you chose late show, and early dinner, you will be given a GOLD card. Since the World Stage only holds half the ship, the two different colors simply indicate whether you see that main theater artist in the first or second show. This also provides a much more intimate experience for our guests.
