More than 10,000 gigs a year – the Baltic Sea's waves provide an important venue for entertainment artists, from troubadours to superstars
It's always a festival on the Baltic Sea, with Viking Line offering passengers on its vessels customized entertainment every day of the year. For the artists, it means a job and a venue that audiences have easy access to. "Gigs on ships are like working in a bubble," says Jannika B, who will also perform for cruise passengers this autumn.When Viking Line's entertainment flagship, Viking Grace, sets out from Turku harbour one weekend evening for Stockholm, the vessel is full of passengers craving entertainment – and to their joy, there is a wide array of professional entertainers on board.
